Unfortunately though, they were too believable, and I started rooting for them, and then the situation got so bad that I really didn't want to continue reading because I was afraid that something bad would happen to them. And that some of the deaths I encountered were so saddening...

I have yet to finish reading the book. Maybe someday... I guess...
Yeah, King does that, doesn't he? I still haven't cracked Under the Dome but I may have to do that. I'm still working my way through the Dark Tower series on audiobook (I have a long commute) and trying to work my way through my to-reads on my Kobo.
