I am a huge fan of Stephen King. When I saw this, I had to read it. I know that JFK's assassination tends to be a serious and controversial subject, so I hoped that the book would be worth the read. It definitely was.

The book is a bit weird, and really getting into it takes a bit of time. Keep with it, I promise it's worth it. The main character is told about a "rabbit hole" and goes through to change history and the course of the world.

Within the first thirty pages of the book, you're pulled in and can't quit reading. I think I read over 100 pages the first time I sat down and opened the book. After that initial reading time, things got slow. I am a mother of two and generally read before bed. For a while, I had no problems turning off the light and going to sleep. Once the book picked back up, I would have to force myself to shut of the light around 4am, knowing that we had to be up by 6. Its definitely worth it, just keep going through the slow parts.
