Summary of this Book...
Carrie White, a bullied and troubled high school teenager, is being raised by her overbearing religious mother. But she has a special gift, a gift of telekinesis, and after a cruel prank at her prom, Carrie unwillingly takes an unusual revenge on her tormentors.
This type of Book is good for...
Inspiration, plain and simple. Rumor has it that King’s wife, Tabitha, found the first few pages of this manuscript in a waste basket. After fishing it out and reading it herself, she thought it was great and asked him to finish it. With that bit of encouragement, she had a hand in making Stephen King who he is today.
I especially liked...
The ending, although the book hardly compares to the movie.
The author of this Book...
Stephen King, an unheard of author at that time, makes his debut with what I feel is one of best books. It’s King before he even knew he was King, and this book made him a household name.
Further Comments...
This book made Stephen King into one of the greatest horror writers of our time, and I highly recommend this classic if you’re into being scared to death.
