an obvious 5 star read
It didn't feel very Stephen King-ey but it was his first book so that's understandable
anyways carrie is THAT girl and we love her
Wanna know why all the shootings in schools are happening? Read this book. Its always been quite obvious. Especially when you mix in all the pills kids are taking nowadays which make them potentially more unstable instead of the opposite.
Después de haber leído 2 libros de Stephen King, me decidí a no leer ningún otro más de su autoría. No porque haya odiado los anteriores, sino porque no me causaron gran impresión. Sin embargo, hace tiempo que tenía ganas de leer Carrie porque el personaje principal me parecía interesante. Ahora que he terminado este libro en una sola sentada, solo me queda decir: Quiero otro de Stephen King!
Está historia está tan bien contada que me fue casi imposible quitarle los ojos de encima. Prueba de ello es el tiempo récord en que lo leí. Quedé completamente atrapada por la historia de Carrie. No pude evitar sentir empatía por ella, y obviamente, repudiar a su loca madre.
Tuve que leer el final dos veces; cada vez sintiendo crecer una rara sensación de felicidad agridulce. Así que lo único que me queda es seguir leyendo más libros de King, que no por gusto tiene esa fama bien ganada.
Not my favorite King, but still good. Certainly has its moments, most of which are ingrained into the popular culture via the movie (which I still haven't seen), but the structure of the story and some of the characters were a bit messy for me.
Listening to the audiobook narrated by Sissy Spacek was a nice touch.
