Wow. What can I say? I absolutely adored this charming, poignant, richly imaginative, and wonderful novel.
The Topeka School was a big disappointment, for me at least. I’d pre-ordered the novel months ago as the premise sounded like something I would very much enjoy, but, sadly, this one just wasn't for me.
I found myself not wanting to put The Dutch House down - reading into the early hours of the morning, and picking it up promptly upon waking.

King has a list of great novels to his name, The Institute is not one of them, despite its interesting premise.
Underwhelming, but enjoyable nonetheless - perhaps a sequel to such a beloved novel could never live up to the hype?
