carterike 's review for:

Misery by Stephen King
4.25
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Gruesome and disturbing summarize the plot of ‘Misery’ well, but Paul’s internal monologues are really what kept me reading. You get to see the human psyche from a very impaired/warped perspective. The ‘Pilings’ and ‘Can You?’ monologues were very well done.
