I liked this more than I expected I would. Generally, if I've seen the movie adaptation before reading the book, I'm bored. Rarely do I ever actually read the book if I've seen the movie first. I figure it's all been spoiled. I never read the first three Harry Potter books because I'd already seen t...
This was the first Stephen King novel I read. I remember grabbing it from my dad’s nightstand and claiming it as my own. I was eleven. Eleven. It is the book that fueled my desire and lifelong love of reading. But eleven?! Reading it now I’m a little horrified that I read it at such a young age. It ...
Spoilers throughout. There are thousands of reviews of this book without spoilers. Find one. I enjoyed this reread (#4, I believe, but I think I've lost count) far more than any of the other times I have read this book. I remember one read being as low as two stars for me. I detested this book. It...

Although I first came to this book at a time when I was too young to see the rated R movie and a few years before my family even owned a VHS player or had purchased a membership in a video rental store, it is impossible for me to read this book now without reference to the 1976 Brian De Palma movie....

Als Carrie i...
It is hard to believe that Carrie was actually written 40 years ago as it is a story as relevant today as it was when first published. I'm going to go on the assumption that most everyone has either read the book or seen a movie version of it and not worry about spoilers. There may be a few to come ...
Read this review, and many more on my blog October Tune!For King’s March, I decided to read Carrie, as I really liked both movies (the one from 1976 and the one from 2013) and I wanted to know if the book was as good as those movies! And it was!Carrie has a lot of articles, interviews and passages o...
wow, what a great read. I saw the original movie and, recently, the 2013 remake. yet, this book still fascinated me, if not for the story, then for the intricate way it gets presented to the reader.through what is in fact a complex tangle of flashbacks, flash forwards, police reports, first person s...
Impressive early Stephen King. Wow. This book was definitely not what I expected it to be. Even though this book celebrates its 40th anniversary this year (2014) it still reads fresh and new, and it does not feel dated at all, not one bit, in fact all the protagonists in this book feel alive and rea...
