Zipped right through the audiobook. Just as mesmerizing as the first time I read it. King remains my problematic fave, as usual. ( ![]() Re-read in Sept/Oct 2020. It lost its "favorite status" for me and dropped to 4*. The story within the story was a waste of time and though I think info dumps via photo albums / scrapbooks are pretty genius this one was a bit excessive. I really enjoy the first chapter where the MC is becoming aware of his surroundings and how the metaphor of the pilings and the tide is used. I may save my copy to have access to that bit of writing but I doubt I'd ever read the full book again. And of course I'll always have Annie's "cockadoodie" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxFa0w8n8iY --------------- Audiobook narrator is a great Annie: Lindsay Crouse --------------- The movie does an almost perfect recreation of the book. They strayed with the ending iirc. I'll re-watch soonish. --------------- SK says this but I don't really get it: "Misery is a book about cocaine. Annie Wilkes is cocaine. She was my number-one fan." https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/stephen-king-the-rolling-s... first king book i've read and definitely worthwhile. the emphasis on drug addiction and the sort of "stream-of-consciousness" writing style was really cool. loved it. This is wonderfully claustrophobic, with most of the book spent confined to one room. This is a fantastic example of what Stephen King does best. It is terrifying, but not in a jump scare way, and I had no idea how it was going to end. There were some parts my eyes glossed over (like the excerpts of Paul's writing), and there's definitely some graphic scenes, but overall I was riveted. I've read a lot of Stephen King, and I have to say that MISERY is a new favorite. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
