 cbwalsh | Sep 13, 2023 |  Un hombre nuevo y misterioso llega al pequeño pueblo de Castle Rock, Maine, para abrir un peculiar establecimiento: Cosas Necesarias. En esta pequeña tienda, cada habitante del lugar parece descubrir, perturbado y fascinado, aquello que sabÃa que siempre habÃa deseado o que deseaba profundamente sin saberlo, y puede acceder a ello por un pequeño precio más una pequeña -o gran- promesa hecha al fascinante vendedor. Pero el sucesivo cumplimiento de esas promesas irá alterando, poco a poco, la hasta entonces tranquila vida de la localidad. Natt90 | Feb 27, 2023 | I'd picked this book with hopes it was similar to "The Green Mile" or stories King's written that lack gore and horror. King is a top notch storyteller and the unique plot of this one is worthy, even though I read very few books in this genre. Epic in length like many of his books, its paced nicely, the small town characters well developed and the Leland Gaunt character, devious in all respects. I preferred The Mile to this one, but am glad I completed it, just the same. (  ) Jonathan5 | Feb 20, 2023 | A bit long. The destruction of the town at the end is over the top. At least the forces of good succeed in the end, although not for any good reason. ( ) Castinet | Dec 11, 2022 | A un moment, j’ai eu vraiment peur que Alan ce soit fait vraiment prendre par Gaunt. Très beau livre, histoire terrifiante et fascinante comme tous les autres livres de Stephen King! (  ) Capucinette | Oct 25, 2022 | inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

The idea of this book is everything I should love in a novel... a mysterious new shop suddenly appears in town which holds everyone's deepest wants and desires at a price they can afford... but unfortunately I hated about 85% of it. I love Stephen King's stories and detailed plots, but this one was just beyond monotonous and at least 450 pages too long.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but how many times can you read that something absolutely horrible happened to someone, all caused by one act of throwing shit on the sheets of a clothesline? (
