Torn between 2 and 3 stars, I don’t like the writing style (the putting thoughts in a bracket irks me)
Tommy was a good lad though

I’ve never read any books by King before, but Carrie is one of my favorite horror movies. The book was very easy to read and honestly super interesting as it breaks up the story with excerpts from fictional books written about the incident after the fact. It also made me appreciate the movie so much more, De Palma made a really faithful adaptation!
