tenshimari 's review for:
Cell
by Stephen King
This was my very first Stephen King book, but it wasn't a good one to start with.
It was the October book pick for my bookclub. (Horror month, yay!)
Didn't really enjoy the start, it felt pointlessly gruesome for shock value and I struggled caring what happens to the characters because you don't know/care for any of them yet. However, I enjoyed the premise of the pulse turning everyone into a crazed killer, and them slowly evolving, but they're basically zombies and zombies are my most hated horror trope. I think my entire mood for this book was just.. indifference. I didn't hate it, but I didn't care for any of it either. I was just bored.
If it hadn't been a bookclub pick I would've probably have DNF'd it.
