Even the movie is not as bad as most of the other movies based on King's books. I actually think it's pretty good. But the book is still one thousand times better!” see full review » see other reviews » |

“It was spine tingling good. My mom had to yell at me to make me put it down! The book was very good especially the way that Steohen King worded it and made it so a guy was basically kiddnaped by a mad lady that is obssesed with him and wants him to write her a book.”

What's a pure bonus is the commentary produced throughout the book on the writing process, the relationship between writer and reader, and how some authors just might feel about those best-sellers we all love so much.
No supernatural thrills here, but all the suspense and terror you could take in real life. A classic in my opinion.”
