A review by huntourr
Cujo by Stephen King

5.0

Okay, I know this might be controversial but I think this is his best book yet (and i’m reading all of his work in publication order so yes, i’ve read The Shining and The Stand already). The tension in this book was just phenomenal. While my favorite scenes were the ones starring Cujo of course, I really liked the scenes following Charity at her sister’s house. I found it especially interesting that I mostly liked and sympathized with Cujo, he just wanted to be a good boy. The real assholes were Joe Camber and Steven Kemp. It’s really uncomfortable to read about domestic abuse, and Kemp was just an asshole for no reason. The last thing that stunned me was that I read somewhere a few months back that Donna died at the end so I was expecting that the whole book and then to find out that Tad is the one that died... that broke my heart. Thanks for reading if you got this far. Now, onto The Running Man!
