lowfatkat 's review for:

The Body by Stephen King
4.25

Perfect for read for Labor Day Weekend (or Week in my case).

I think it is super cool that SK put his own short stories, previously published in magazines, throughout this story. I saw some people say that inserting these stories was bad choice and made the story not good, but I disagree. Each story adds something to 'The Body' but also as a King fan it's like getting more stories in one, and this story overall I felt was an insight to King as a person as well.

This was a re-read for me because I am reading all the Castle Rock books and this time I did it on audio and I loved it. Rereads are rare for me because I am always worried that I won't like it, but I think I liked it more the second time around. Last time I read it I think it was a case of right book, wrong time. I am really glad I read this again and am about to watch the movie again too!
