I read it and thought it had some great insights. Oddly enough, Stephen King and I grew up in the same small city in Maine (him a few years ahead of me) and both spent many, many hours in the Bangor Public Library. His Victorian mansion is not far away. I checked out mostly mysteries, Hardy Boys books, and sports biographies. I suspect he tended more to sci fi and tales of the supernatural.
