11-22-63: A Novel

Loved the story. Loved the narrativ

Excelente obra

I love that is why I going to by again

3.5⭐️ rounded up. As someone who was fascinated by the JFK movie when I was a kid, I was excited to read a historical thriller associated with that time period. Once it got moving, this book was an absorbing and exciting peek into America in the 1960s. What I expected from this novel, and what it delivered in spades, was demonstrating the significance of each moment in life. It was interesting to see the butterfly effect on display, that in that making a change in the past, no matter how insignificant it seems, it could have consequences beyond your wildest imagination. What I did not expect from this book, and what pleasantly surprised me, were the relationships formed by our hero throughout his journey. Yes, this is a story about time travel, but it is also about love, and community, and found family, and sacrificing individual needs for the collective good. Ultimately, I enjoyed this book, but I did feel that it could have been significantly shorter and it still would have brought its point home. This is a must read for King fans, science fiction lovers, and American history buffs.

Very big book but I couldn’t put it down.

I had been putting off reading 11/22/63 for quite a while, anticipating a dry history lesson about a pivotal moment in time. However, what I read was anything but tedious- it was a captivating piece of storytelling that showcased Stephen King's remarkable talent. The narrative drew me in with its intricate pacing and well-developed characters, transporting me into a fascinating world.

I first bought this book when I saw it in the store, loved it and bought it for my kindle, I have read it many many times, I just love the feeling of the 50's, the tastes and smells, the trustful way of life, the hats on men and hats and gloves on women. This book takes me to this time and place. There were many bad things in those times too and gladly we are more aware now. I watched the mini series on Hulu (not true to the book), and now have the audio book as well. We have come a long way but I just love to go back to the 50's for a little vacation when girls were modest, boys pants covered their underwear and meat had flavor. The story of changing time and stopping the assassination of JFK could have been a much shorter book, but taking us back to live in another time is what makes this book so great. I will read it many more times, listen to it in my car when taking long drives to visit family, and enjoy every minute of my time back in a less complicated and angry time.

As usual King bats this one out of the park. The narrator is awesome. The story is great and the characters are good.
