dumaurier 's review for:

Misery by Stephen King
3.75
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

My least favorite King so far. I love Annie as a villain, and I love Paul’s internal dialogues about writing to survive. However, Paul as a narrator wasn’t very compelling to me. And the extended sections of the Misery books didn’t do anything for me, along with several references to rape that were really out of place and jarring.
