3.5
Kirja on ehkä eniten ahdistava ja kamala, ja on mahdotonta olla tuntematta myötätuntoa useimpia hahmoja kohtaan. Kirjan tarina on loistava kertomus ulkopuolisuudesta, julmuudesta ja välittämisen merkityksestä. Carrien äiti saa oikeasti raivon heräämään.
Kirja on oikeasti hyvä, mutta ei ehkä ominta genreä. Ja välillä kirjan muoto (sekaisin eri näkökulmia, katkelmia kirjoista ja kuulusteluista) tuntui haastavalta.

I really liked the vivid descriptions, I could really see the scenes in my head with how they were written. I also really like Carrie as a character, i think she’s really fascinating and i’m a huge fan of books about religious trauma so this was definitely a good choice for me.
I’m knocking one star from my rating purely for the unnecessary use of the n word, i don’t think that was needed whatsoever and i know this was written in the 70s but still, it wasn’t acceptable then and it isn’t acceptable now.
