A review by dylanperry
Mile 81 by Stephen King
4.0
4/5
This had a lot going against it for me.
I'll be the first to tell you Stephen King is not the best at writing kids and teenagers (yes, the kids from The Body included) and half of the characters in this are kids. And yes, a lot of those parts were still a bit of a slog.
But the more I read of it, the more I got into Mile 81. It's a straight-forward and short novella about a demonic car (nicknames the 'Bad Car' by one of the kids) feeding on passer-by's.
It drags in the beginning. Know that going in. But it's worth getting through.
4/5
