Summary: Another In A Slew Of King Books
Review: Spooky chick has freaky mom. Spooky chick gets dissed in school. Spooky chick studies the occult. Spooky chick gets awesome powers. Spooky chick gets bucket of pig's blood dumped on her head. Spooky chick fights back--even from the grave. Very spooky. Boo!

Summary: Hmmm
Review: I'm not a great fan of King's early works--in fact I'm grateful I picked up his later stuff first; if I'd started with "Carrie" I wouldn't have stuck with him as long as I have. This book is a simple idea, simply executed, and simply concluded. No surprises here. Perhaps something good for early-or-pre-teen horror fans to cut their teeth on, but for anybody who's even looked at his later stuff, this doesn't hold anything new. (Maybe things are a lot more severe in America than the UK, but aren't King's teenagers a little ... well ... sociopathic? Psychotic? He makes High School sound like its run by a generation of neo-Nazis.)

Summary: Stephen King Is A Genius
Review: Carrie is one of King's best novels, a distillation of what was to come, but Simon Leake's ignorant remarks using movies as the standard to criticize literature is very common. If he were consistent Caligula would be the canon to judge the academic bore's fave Gore Vidal.

Summary: Startling! The Ultimate Revenge.
Review: This is the story about how cruel teenagers can be to someone just a little different than themselves. How they wield there swords that are their tongues and taunt not expecting a reprisal!This story proves that you may not know just who the heck you're dealing with. Stephen King's first novel gives the literary world a sneak preview into what will be known as the Master of Horror.

Summary: King's first novel, but it still reels you in.
Review: It's been years since I read Carrie, and I recently decided to read it again. Yes, it's King's first novel, and yes, you can tell it is. Putting that aside, he still had the power to suck the reader into his world like he aways does. I wouldn't recommend Carrie for someone about to read King for the first time, but it's a great book for long time fans wanting a reminder as to why King is the master of macabre.

Summary: Carrie is the most gripping horror novel ever
Review: I went to Barnes and Noble and picked up Carrie after recently seeing the movie. I went to the coffee shop and three hours later, I had gone through half the novel. the next day I returned and bought the book. I finished it after another three hours. It was gripping beyond comparison and kept me reading non-stopped until I finished it. Any horror fan or any fan of books for that matter should be captivated by the book. possibly the greatest horror novel ever.

Summary: Pretty good (but see the movie).
Review: Stephen King's debut is one hell of a page-turner, a great explosive read about what happens when one of us humans goes off. Everyone knows the plot, so let's move on: yes, the movie is better. Mostly because Sissy Spacek as Carrie White is a lot more sympathetic than she is in King's novel. Also, the destruction of the town at the end is a bit over the top. However, the way that Carrie exits the story in the book, with Sue, is very touching. Too bad they really couldn't have done that scene on film.

Summary: I think this is the best he has ever written
Review: I read quite alot 1 or 2 books a week. And i think this book is different it's scary and gets you felling about what he is writting about but my favourite book is "Stand By Me" it's about a bunch of kids who go on adventure to see a dead body
