Never read this classic although I’ve seen movie a bunch of times. There are scarier things about Carrie than her telekinetic powers! Pretty dark story and a fun read. It was fun listening to Sissy Spacek read it!

I really enjoyed this on audio. The characters were so believable, and I liked the structure using book and interview excerpts. Religious fanaticism is horrifying as are teenage bullies.

Mi è piaciuto molto il fatto che il libro non sia dal punto di vista di Carrie.  La storia non mi ha mai annoiata e il libro è risultato molto scorrevole.
