Author: Stephen King
Type: Thriller
Synopsis: The author of a famous set of books has just killed the main character, when he has a car accident which leaves his legs smashed. He is found by somebody, who claims to be his biggest fan, and she is *not* pleased to find out that her heroine has died.
She keeps the author in her house like a prisoner and forces him to write more. Oh yeah, and she's a psychopath.
Review: I like this book
. It goes at a good pace and manages to carry across the frustration and terror of the main character. Apart from being a good read, I reckon it's even more cool if you're planning on running the "At Your Door" campaign - Annie Wilkes = Jenny Armbruster = Annie Wilkes. Read it and see.
Ratings:
Plot - 3/5 (A bit too contrived for me, but still really good)
Fun - 3/5 (Not great fun, but very entertaining in it's macabre way)
Style - 5/5 (Very good pace, like I said, and images and stuff)
Overall - 4/5
