Rating: 3
Carrie is the misunderstood butt of the high school. At 16 she doesn't know what menstration is and for some reason weird stuff always happens around her. Her overbearing zealot of a mother cows her into self loathing. So when Carrie get's invited to the prom by the most popular boy at school all hell breaks loose.
Reading this book almost makes me wish that I'd never seen the movie. I'm not the biggest King fan but I must admit: This book made my skin crawl. The way it's written is highly effective at keeping the reader off balance and the multiple points of view make the suspention of disbelief a little easier.
Recommended for horror fans

It's funny - I've read about a dozen King books, but I skipped all the popular ones like Carrie or Cujo or It.
