Suspeseful and humorous. Macabre at its best. Always a masterful storyteller (or is that storywriter?), Stephen King has created truly memorable characters. Annie Wilkes comes alive off the page in a way that makes you check under your bed when you finish reading.

Absolutely loved this middle section in Annie's home, but the final scene was horrific.

I'm beginning to think every writer should read this. Courting the writing muse is no easy feat.

Riveting.
