Stephen King is hailed as one of the great horror writers of all time, and he absolutely is. Whether you like him or not, you cannot deny he has led a very successful career scaring us for decades. From Carrie to most recently an adaptation of his short story The Boogeyman, his stories have been adapted to film and television since he's been published. While he is certainly most known for his horrifying works, some of his more drama-centered stories have become almost more well-known.
Lisey's Story is no less horrifying than some of King's other works. There is the terrifying monster Long Boy in the world of Boo'ya-Moon, which Scott had the power to transport himself and others to0. There are real-life horrors as well, in the form of abusive fathers or the man who is threatening Lisey. The most terrifying part of this novel is probably the most mundane of all, losing the person you love most. Because first and foremost, Lisey's Story is a love story.
Like the novel, it is very different from anything he had done before. Yes, there are still nightmarish sequences, but it's also deeply romantic. That brings in a lot more downtime rather than action. To realistically grow the relationship, whether, on the page or screen, it has to be developed enough to be believable. The only downside with that is sometimes these shows can feel a little bloated with little to no action. It's nothing too bad, but the show could use some streamlining.
