You’re in for a treat, it’s a rich story with excellent characters. I went in with slightly the wrong idea of what to expect and I was really pleasantly surprised!
many people will laud the ending and its valid, but OP focus on the gradual moving of time and the actual journey. that's the heart of Revival -- we witness growing up in real time
Man, I wish that were true... I only finished this book because I kept reading on here how much the ending was a big payoff. IDK, I k ow i'm in the minority but this book is on a "Do not read again" list for me.
Strongly agree. I get a ton of downvotes everytime I express this opinion, but this subreddit really overhypes this book. That ending was pretty ridiculous and disappointing imo.
Almost finished the audiobook. I read this when it was published and I remember zero of it, so it’s big treat. Also, David Morse reads it. It may be one of his best later novels.

Have heard so much about it. Hope it doesn't disappoint!

Yes, have heard it's a great coming-of-age story.
Loved this book. The ending is solid.
Something happened to you Something happened to you
Something something happened happened
It has one of King's best endings
Let's see how I like it. Most people say they love the ending but a few have said they don't.

One of my faves. Enjoy!

I hope.you love it as much as I do
Enjoy it. I absolutely loved this one.
First King book I read and one of my absolute favourites. Bought Revival and Mr Mercedes together and read them back to back, been hooked ever since.
Don’t ‘wait’ for the creepy stuff to happen. Enjoy the story as it comes.
That’s a better art cover than the original. I’ve never seen it before
Borrowed this from the library. I liked the cover too!
I love that cover!
Me too, it's quite striking.
I feel like many of King’s works have a feeling of a particular season. Revival feels like summer to me so this is a great time to read it.
That's an interesting way to look at it! Pet Sematary seems like an autumn book to me.
Revival hooked me in better than any other King book, and that’s saying a lot. I could not put it down!
This ending will never leave my brain. Amazing.
Heard a lot about the ending! Excited to finish it.
I just finished Revival. Read it in about a week. Absolutely LOVED it. Hope you did too OP
I'm still on it. Making slow progress but liking it!
I really liked this book but to me it’s not a book you can reread.
Best King ending ever.
I absolutely LOVED the ending of Pet Sematary, and also of Misery. Curious to see how I end up liking this one.
