Cujo

Summary: I hoped for better
Review: If you put this book under a magnifing glass next to King's other book it just an okay story. I thought the twist about the closet and Frank Dodd were good, but otherwise it is the original "Jaws" (book version) w/ a ravid dog. If youv'e read them both think about it. Both books have major charictor affairs both books have a killer animal on the loose really it is not to original, but its not bad or good

Summary: Not his best.
Review: I can understand this book being an allegory in several ways, but it doesn't mean it's real great. It was hard to keep interested in the book, even during the Pinto experience. What really got me was the closet part at the beginning. The story just didn't need any supernatural stuff in it. It would have been better without the closet monster bit.Worth reading but not buying.

Rating:
Summary: Dark Novel with No supernatural elements
Review: Cujo is a dark novel that becomes very claustrophobic in the end. It is a good book, and despite it being by Stephen King, there is no element of supernatural terror here. Just a well written drama about a family, and a Saint Bernard who chases a rabbit into a hole and finds something bad in there.

Rating:
Summary: Great suspense
Review: I liked this book a lot, but was expecting something more, well... gory and grotisque. It had unbeleivable suspense and a great ending. It is about a dog that has gone rabid, terrorizing a town. It isn't that scary, but more intense and suspenseful.I thought it was a little boring at some parts, or a lot boring. But everthing else was great, and I think you should get it.

Summary: A good book to read at night, you'll fall asleep fast.
Review: This book was a total *yawn*. I only read 50 pages so I dont know is that's considered reading the book. But let me tell you it was extreamly boooring. Nothing happened! Synopsis: Kid sees monster in closet and monster just sits there, flashback to a week ago, father of kid having trouble with his adverstising buisness, dog gets bitten by bat and dog gets a little sick (definitly not like the "brain eating virus" described in the editorial review) possibly rabies, mother of kid cheating on father. Are you still awake? There is no terror in this book (or at least the first 50 pages). C'mon this is Stephen King, scary thriller writer, not The Sandman

Rating:
Summary: Stephen King at His Best
Review: I'm not the biggest Stephen King fan, but this book was excellent. After reading this book I think I can finally see why he is the most popular author of our time. This book had so much suspence that I found it difficult finding a good place to stop and finally go to sleep at night. If your a Stephen King fan then you have to read this book. And if your not, read it anyway.

Summary: cujo
Review: This is one of the better King books that I have read.It was very gripping and I literally found it hard to put down until I had read the last page.The entire section where Donna and Tad were trapped in the car reminded me a lot of 'Gearlds Game' where the wife was trapped in the holiday home.If you havn't already read this then read it now.

Summary: Sacry yes, but overlong
Review: The last half of "Cujo," when the mother and son are trapped in the car by the rabid title beast, goes from being frightening to being tedious. "The monster is out of my closet," little Tad tells his mommy. Unfortunately, the monster does not do much of anything for a couple of hundred pages after that except keep Tad and his mother trapped for no real good reason. Too bad, because "Cujo" starts off very well, slowly weaving its fabric of terror. After the disease apocalypse and town destroying vampire hordes of some of King's previous works, this one just doesn't measure up.

Summary: Stephen King has done it again!
Review: Everyone knows Stephen King is a great author who writes a lot of great books, but this one has to be one of his best. I'm thirteen years old and it took me a few days to read it. I thought one of the reasons that made it so scary was that it can actually happen. Dogs CAN get rabies. Also I love how Stephen King explains in great detail. You can see, in your mind, a huge, rabid dog, eager to kill. Good job to Mr King! And keep them coming!
