I have never watched the Mia Farrow movie adaption of this book, but I know that is a classic horror movie. Because of that I´m surprised that this book left me with lukewarm feelings. My main issue with this book was that the strong and intense second part of the novel was bogged down by the lame...
All they eat in this book is milk and meat and starch.Just as long as it needs to be, with a sense of spiraling claustrophobia and absurdity. I need to read more Ira Levin.
Rosemary's Baby is not very scary but it was pretty strange and I enjoyed it. Rosemary and her husband were really wanting to get into the Bramford apartment complex and right when they had signed a lease on another apartment it becomes available and Rosemary begs her husband Guy to get them out of ...
I think I remember some comments about how the movie was a campy style of horror. It left me completely unprepared for this read.This is horror alright. I'm unsettled while writing this, actually.

I read many positive reviews both for the book and the movie so I had...

By now almost everyone knows the plot of this one thanks to the famous movie adaptation starring Mia Farrow: a yo...
I can't believe it's taken me so long to read this! A classic indeed. The story had me gripped, and I was surprised how short the book appeared to be. Without revealing too much, for those as late to the party as me, the end had me slightly suprised. But, then again, it works!
