Book Three, Holly
Sep 12, 2023Jynxing_Gemini rated this title 4.5 out of 5 stars
A wonderful ending to the three-book series! I am now even more excited to read his new Holly (2023) book. While this book starts taking a more magical take while the other books were more realistic, this definitely still tracks for the…

Too dark for me to finish.

A struggle for him to write this as it was a struggle for me to read it. I lost interest several times. He's not used to writing detective stories and it shows. I read this whole set and the next book "The Outsider" because of Holly and…

A great ending to a great trilogy! This novel is the most Stephen King of the three, so if you sort of liked the others but missed the... Kingness?... for lack of a proper adjective, here you go! I love Holly Gibney, she's by far my…

4.5/5 on Amazon Book 3 in The Hill Hodges Trilogy
Jan 15, 2019
From Stephen King, End of Watch is the last book in the Bill Hodges trilogy, a departure from King's tradition of horror and the occult. Or, at least that is what everyone thought after reading the first book. By book two there were…

This last book in the Mr. Mercedes trilogy has the suspense and action of a good thriller. The protagonists, including a sweet, sincere woman with Asperger's Syndrome, are all sympathetic characters. The science fiction angle is great!

To me, one of the best set of King's books, the Bill Hodges Trilogy- Because of the tie that binds the primary characters in all 3 books-love, with the needs of each person and the ability of each to receive and perceive that love and use…

A very good read. The Bill Hodges triology was excellent. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good murder mystery, interesting stories, and a diabolical "perk."

Great ending to the trilogy, although some parts were a bit repetitive (crimes, past events, dialogue). Mr. Mercedes was the best, in my opinion.

I loved this series and End of Watch did not disappoint. Great way to conclude the trilogy.

This was an excellent book to finish off an excellent trilogy. King does a great villain.

Not his best and not his worst. I found the explanation of the IT aspects (by technogeeks Holly and Brady or boomer know-nothing Hodges) tedious. Otherwise, the plot moved fairly well keeping me mostly engaged. I still prefer earlier…

“End of Watch” is the final installment of the Bill Hodges Trilogy by Stephen King. Even though, after reading the first two books in this series, I would not consider this King’s typical work – this book tied it all together in a nice…

I loved Mr. Mercedes, and Finders Keepers was alright. End of Watch was kind of a let down. Very far-fetched, very much an older person writing about young people.

A fine return to form for King, who is wrapping up his first detective trilogy. Filled with some excellent twists and turns and, as always, King proves to be one of the few male writers who writes women exceptionally well.

As usual, Stephen King plucks at things we fear, in this case our fear of having others read our minds, or even worse, invading our bodies (like Alien). A good ending to the Mr. Mercedes trilogy.

The end of the trilogy enjoyed it.....fast paced....suspenseful...

I finished it, but altogether the three books felt like a long slow slog. It's almost as if King is being paid by the word. While reading End of Watch I could barely remember what happened in the previous two. Luckily, King's characters…

I was at Jerry Garcia's 50th birthday show on this day back in the year of our Lord 1992 where he played The Maker deep in the second set. All these years later it still brings me to tears with haunting lyrics like, "My body is bent and…

Good read but sort of "phoning it in" now...I love his old stuff so maybe I'm not being fair. Definitely worth the time to read but sort of silly IMO.

This was a great Stephen King Book.
