Damn, I've been in such a slump because of this book.
Anyway, I'm back! Finally! 😅
Long story short, this book was dreadful. I just couldn't get into it and I never connected with any of the characters, which is a first for a King novel I've read.
I think it's good going though because this is my 61st Stephen King book and I've only disliked this and Revival.
Two stars might seem harsh but compared to King's other works, I think The Tommyknockers is well below par.
Even Stephen King himself agrees so....

"Not made much progress on this because of work and other life stuffs.. 😒
I'm usually hooked right away by a King book but this one's different.
I know King doesn't much like this one and it's one of mixed ratings/reviews but I definitely need to mark it off my to read list, this will be my 61st book of his."

But I'm glad I read it, it marks off another of his I've read. I've read 61 of them now.
I plan to read all of his, I'm unsure what one will be next. Maybe 'Four Past Midnight'

I'm glad you continued reading his books after this one.
I've been putting this one off as someone told me it was King's worst, it's still sitting on my bookshelf though!
I really loved reading this book. Even though it can be boring in sections 😆
Sorry this didn't work for you, Michael.
I loved revival, i cant get into this one though!
