4.0 out of 5 stars Who would have thought, April 6, 2007
a story about a killer car would be so entertaining? I really enjoyed this novel. What I liked best was the characterization. King did a nice job of diving into each character -- especially Arnie. He has to be the most dynamic character I've ever known. I love how you watch him transform right before your very eyes. I found it hard to put this book down. King has this way of making the reader hang on and keeping hanging until the book is finished. Christine is certainly worth the read...the end is great -- one of those that make you go, "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm..." and then you don't stop thinking about it for hours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Concept, Car a little loose., October 27, 2007
By MJ. "Red Light" (North of Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
I have read a good amount of books first off, but have never actually read a Stephen King book to this point in my life, which I figured was something I should do eventually.

I believe that the book has an excellent premise and for the most part a compelling story line. But the story in my opinion and forgive me for doing this is kind of like a Ford Fury, it's kind of built solidly with a huge engine but it handles pretty miserably. Like I said the drive behind the story of a good kid obsessed with a car that then becomes obsessed with demons is pretty good, but at just about every turn in the story King uses the easiest most cliche story possible to keep the novel going, which is fine to a degree. The writing in these areas is often lazy and about as cliche as the school bullying and Leigh has got to be the lamest female character, even lamer than the unnamed cheerleader.

I guess I have a preference for somewhat more refined writing than this, but he cares so little about abusing cliches that it's actually hilarious at points, maybe this is his style. At page 300 I got sick of it though to be honest, because the story was cruising right down main street and I felt like the book had become the car. And I was just reading to find out who the car would kill next, which got boring It really wasn't all that exciting as the concept of the story, because I didn't feel like putting all that effort into something so lazily written. So I just skipped to the end, which was satisfying to a degree.

All in all this was a good book with a stronger concept than Snakes on a Plane, and much better writing, and character development. Everything was always though like how can the author take the easiest way to keep you reading as possible, with a joke hear, a cliche voice there, and a cliche cop, and a tearjerking scene there with stereotypical character here and there, and eventually you find yourself liking the car better than the people. It seems kind of cynical which is why I give 4 stars.
