It was ok. Not my favorite King but it reminded me of an episode of the Twilight Zone or something.

Ha sido una historia muy cortita, y aunque no soy gran fan de este tipo de historias sci-fi, me ha gustado lo suficiente.

Ah, y esa mención a Doctor Who... ♡♡♡

Short, interesting, creepy. It had the usual Stephen King undertones: the way the monster was described, the way Pete described the Burger King. But it was nice. I liked the fact that it was short and swift, didn't leave too much guessing. One of the better short stories of the King's that I've read.

This had a lot going against it for me.

I'll be the first to tell you Stephen King is not the best at writing kids and teenagers (yes, the kids from The Body included) and half of the characters in this are kids. And yes, a lot of those parts were still a bit of a slog.

But the more I read of it, the more I got into Mile 81. It's a straight-forward and short novella about a demonic car (nicknames the 'Bad Car' by one of the kids) feeding on passer-by's.

It drags in the beginning. Know that going in. But it's worth getting through.

4/5

A weird, strange, scary, stupid short story, not what I expected from Steven King.

Entretenido sin más, un relato del que esperaba quizás otro desarrollo de los acontecimientos, el final no me termina de convencer.
