Sleeping Beauties by Owen King, Stephen King

5.0

---

I was in dire need of a book to keep me hooked, and this was it. A fine piece of writing from Stephen and Owen King, albeit a different one than you would expect from Stephen King - but I did love the way the book unfolded. I specifically loved the way the authors described what it means to be a woman in a man's world and what men could do, if they had- or think they have - all liberty to do so. I could not help drawing parallels to The Power - even if the story there is totally different, it is still a story about women and men and their differences, today's society and the ease with which you can condone an abusive behaviour.
