Dolores Claiborne by Stephen King
1.0

fucking awful. nothing sucks the life out of a story like the entire book being a character recounting a tale from their life in past tense regional dialect. classic stephen king dumbass side-swipes at fat/nonwhite people, and of course women, littered throughout, adding absolutely nothing. he seems like he has an incredibly easy time writing insults about women, thinly guised as "things" "characters" "say." just like in gerald's game, used incestuous child rape as a limp, back-burner motivation for revenge. how lovely to be reminded that a character in gerald's game has THE SMELL OF THEIR OWN DAD'S CUM as the nucleus and motif for her survival story. like holy jesus get a fucking grip man.
