Negative Positive
Title: I think it's an IMPOSTER AUTHOR!
Review: Like many of Stephen King's "Constant Readers" as he has dubbed us, I too have read everything (yes, yes, everything) that he has written.As I worked my way through Cell I kept waiting to be truly sucked in, to feel something for the characters and the outcomes... but it just continued to feel superficial.Then, a thought came to mind... this isn't actually Stephen King, it's somebody who's writing just like Stephen King (without the real hook, the real 'goods') and soon Stephen is going to pop out and say:"FAKE OUT"!"Just a hoax, another gimmick I'm trying to keep this whole writing business fresh and interesting"(oh please, oh please let that be true!)I don't really want to believe he would just coast through a book like this one. "Phone it in" as they say in the acting world.I won't give up on him, never, not ever. But if this is really you Stephen King, you can do oh so much better. And we, your Constant and Faithful Readers will be waiting. Always.
