Summary: Bone-Chilling!
Review: Wow. I have read many of King's works, and I was never REALLY scared by any of his books. I just thought they were darned good reads. However, Pet Sematary is quite different.The plot revolves around young doctor Louis Creed, who moves to a remote little town in Maine with his beautiful family -- but they all get the feeling that the cute little town has a dark, evil secret. Wierd things start to happen when a college student comes into Creed's campus infirmary -- hit by a truck and as good as dead -- and sputters warnings out to him, and later appears in a dream, advising him not to pass the barrier at the end of the "Pet Sematary." Louis's life starts to fall apart, and he senses a strange power. The "Pet Sematary" and the darkness which lies beyond it begin to control and destroy his life. Doesn't sound scary -- that's only because I didn't want to give anything away. But, it is EXTREMELY creepy, even though I've already seen the movie about a million times. I honestly have to say that "PET SEMATARY" gave me the creepiest four days of my life. Many scenes in this grim masterpiece will absolutely freeze your blood. I don't think I have ever been that "freaked out." In fact, I finished the book today, and last night the book scared me so bad that I was litteraly afraid to go to sleep -- therefore, I did not. I stayed up all night, afraid to turn off the lights and go to sleep, with nothing to do but read the book. This book is like the MicMac burial ground itself....it seems to control you, and forces you to unlock its frightening secrets. If you are in for a good scare that no horror movie could ever give you (this coming from a hard-boiled horror fan, who does NOT scare easy, and I am being truthful), then order this book immediately. You will be scared....but you will not be sorry. I think this book also has a moral -- don't try to fix it if it aint really broke. Also, as the tagline for the movie states..."Sometimes dead is better." Absolutely right. Well, I am off now, to drink a pot of black coffee to make up for all the sleep I lost reading Pet Sematary last night.

Summary: definatly buy this book
Review: i read this book and although it was scary, i enjoyed it alot. you will not regret buying it for i did not. this is a very frightining book so if you are just starting out with stephen king, i sugjest that you read a book such as "The Running Man" fisr before you try the extreme.

Summary: Tough going... at first.
Review: I have to admit that it took me a couples of tries to get through the first half of this book. I found it far too wordy and convoluted. BUT when I finally waded through it I hit pay dirt. The second half of this book is worth having to force myself through the first half. It's exciting, fast-paced, and scary as hell. I finished this book at three in the morning and had trouble getting to sleep. It might be slow at first, but stick with it. It's well worth... and then some!

Summary: Death is a mystery; Burial a secret.
Review: I can't even being to describe this masterpiece. I read it a long time ago (subsequently I read it again to "experience" it again) and the memory i have of those 2 weeks is something you can not put into words. You feel something that you've never felt before. That's right. This book makes you *feel* something. Each word, each sentence, each paragraph...they grab your mind and put you in that situation. The grief and horror you read about, you also feel. You feel it in some primitive region of your brain that you thought couldn't be activated unless something "real" happened. Well, fellow readers, SK has done exactly that. I look back to those 2 weeks and i remember the emotions conjured up and it feels like i'm reliving something that really happened. I have to stop and say to myself, "It's only a book....this didn't really happen...please dear God..it's only a book..." What emotions are stirred up from that bubbling cauldron deep in the psyche? Grief, sadness, horror, fear, shock, and worst of all: joy. Yes, joy. Because SK makes you feel joy and happiness for the Creeds. Then he throws in everything else. I read in an interview somewhere that SK himself says he doesn't like to read Pet Sematary again. He said it was too disturbing. I tend to agree with him. Although i plan on reading it again for the 3rd time sometime soon... When it's dark out.

Summary: Pet Sematary is one of King's best yet!
Review: I loved this book. The movie was pretty good too, but the book was very interesting. It was also terrifying as well. The descriptions of Zelda and Gage were so cool, and I reccomend this book AND movie (which some people thought sucked) to all Stephen King fans.

Summary: Loved it!
Review: I thought that this book was really clever and it was well written. This book didn't bore me and it kept me wanting to find out what happened next. A really awesome book.

Summary: Very overrated!!!
Review: While the book had a great degree of originality, it did not have the intense excitement of other King books, nor did I ever feel I could not put the book aside until maybe the last 50 pages. I did make illusions to Salem's Lot and The Dark Half, which was quite clever.

Summary: it was great
Review: The book was excellent I read it more than once already. His books are always better than his movies, and I would buy any new thing he had out because ive never read a book or seen a movie that i didnt like!
Rating:
Summary: Pretty good book, a little to much detail.
Review: Stephen King really gets you excited about this book really quick. But as I got to the middle of the book it started to get less exciting. Then, at the end of the book it becomes exciting again. Overall, it's a pretty good book.
