In this novel, Stephen King introduces us to The Institute, a secret operation in the middle of a wooded area in northern Maine. Here there are children who can move things with their minds, and also read the minds of others. But hidden behind the fake smiles from the orderlies and the tests and shots being given to them, what purpose does it all serve? According to the children, it isn't good and they want out. This was a great thriller and an edge-of-your-seat kind of novel. It's an incredible story of bravery and hope, but also of frustration and dread. It was hard to put down because I wanted to know what would happen next. King takes the reader into a world that could be realistic, operations and tests that could actually be happening, right under our noses. He makes it just believable enough to make the reader think a little harder about what happens to all of those missing children in the world.
