CRONELIKE WHAT A WONDERFUL WORD !

Such an interested turn to have Carrie go to a church and add the layer of religious confusion back into the crumbly mess of Carrie White’s mind. It also completes a subplot to have Carrie confront her mother at the end tying up a plot so elusive people almost forget about it until it is sneakily tied back in.

a. I almost wish that the book included some scenes before the shower scene. perhaps shifting the timeline so as to have a few more events to characterize Carrie.
b. The final narration shift back to Carrie states that the girl was embarrassed, shameful, mortified, and horrified. I think another way of taking this would be to have Carrie gain a sudden confidence; illustrating a true shift.

It’s getting good!! I I’ve King’s development of evil twisted characters. In this book it’s fascinating to learn more about Billy Nolan.

it’s so good so far! Each time I’ve picked it up today it’s only been for a few minutes but I feel like I’m starting to loose steam. But hopefully I’ll get back into right now!! Also I’m aware of the infamous red scene from the book but I know nothing of the surrounding plot and any of its details. So I’m curious to see the lead up and fall action. I assume the prom scene is the climax???

There is simply something about Stephen King’s writing that is this so manageable and thought-provoking. I could sit and read the rest of this book in one sitting. It’s so good so far.
