Pet Sematary by Stephen King
4.0

Stephen King has a way of weaving tales that crawl under your skin and stay with you long after the last page, and "Pet Sematary" is no exception. King’s ability to set a scene is nothing short of masterful; from the eerie woods of Ludlow, Maine, to the unsettling quiet of the Pet Sematary itself, every detail is painted with chilling precision. I found myself completely invested in the characters, especially Louis Creed, and the harrowing choices he makes.

I understand why King himself has said this is his most terrifying book—there’s an unsettling truth to it that cuts deep. The premise of the Pet Sematary was compelling from the start, and I was on edge the entire time, waiting for that inevitable shoe to drop. The tension builds steadily, and the anxiety it created in me lasted until the very last sentence, which leaves you feeling profoundly disturbed.

What I loved:
