Im a long time fan of mister king, having read multiple of his books and right now I rank pet sematary as his opus magnum. The true horror of this book does not come from scary monster, it comes from the fear of the inevitable death of someone you love.
I had to put this book to rest a few times because it left me filled with dread and anxious feelings. But then I realized that, one day, when I lose someone really close to me, I probably wouldn't be able to touch this book, so i had to read it while I still can.
This is not a book I will ever recommend blindly to anyone, since I believe it contain triggers to people who had to deal with grief.
So im truly curious, has anyone read this book after losing someone they love? Was it difficult? How did it affect you?
