"Gwendy's Button Box" by Stephen King and Richard Chizmar

Castle Rock, a small town in Maine with a very special place called Castle View. Of the three ways up to the View, Gwendy chose one - the Suicide Stairs. Why? She wanted to lose weight, of course. But, one day a man spoke to her and their conversation changed her young life. Come visit Castle Rock and discover the secret of the Button Box!

What an interesting novella! It was a quick read, one I did not want to put down. I wanted to know about the box, what it could do, what Gwendy would do with it. Ultimately, two thoughts come to mind. "Be careful what you wish for" and we all have the capacity for good and evil. What path we choose is up to us. Open the book, and I promise, you won't put it down until you are done!
