>the ending of 11/22/63
it's not fucking fair... after all his work
and then the part at the end where he visits her in the future and she can somewhat recall his name and he doesnt say that hes from the past
life can be so unfair
also
>tfw you finish a good book and you will never hear from those characters ever again even though you're emotionally attached to them now

I didn't like the ending. In fact I would have done the opposite. I would have made it so that the present would be a complete utopia and world peace had finally been achieved. It would be a much more unnerving implication: if this one event happened differently, everything could have been different. We were *this* close to achieving world peace.

Huh? did you read the same book as me? He stopped the assassination of kennedy, killed frank dunning (who would have murdered his wife and kids), and stops that one girl from being killed in a hunting accident.
He did a ton of shit to make the present a better world, but it basically ended up being some weird constant natural disaster occurring mess (maybe nuclear bombs constantly going off in this version of the universe caused earthquakes and shit to happen more)
everyone in that version was rekt and shit with disfigured faces from fallout. Basically it was fallout 3 in 2011. So he goes back and then gives up 3 weeks in when he realizes he's just damaging the time continuum or whatever the fuck those time string things were

Oh I see what you meant. I thought you were complaining about George Amberson/Jake Epping but you were talking about the author's take on the ending
Yeah I suppose but that ending seems kind of boring alone. He'd have to make it longer, maybe show the "utopia" he has created for him and Sadie slowly becoming a hell hole for them

fuck that feel.
>thinking a childfucking president is worth saving
This delusion. Jfk was awful and his greatest feature was getting killed.
Besides that, it was one of the better king books and the ending was okay. Great idea, bad implementation.

you gotta let go
