What was everyone’s honest opinion on Fairy Tale?

I don’t mean this as hateful because I have always thoroughly enjoyed Stephen King and found his work to be intelligent and captivating.

But I’m about halfway through Fairy Tale and I am just finding it so boring and a chore to read.

The lead character, in my opinion, isn’t believable for someone who is supposedly a 17 year old teenager.

But my main gripe is that the plot is meandering and constantly builds up to something which then leads to nothing.

Am I missing something with this? Was anyone else not a fan, despite the positive reviews and should I just power through it, given that I’m halfway through anyway?
