Books: Pet Semetary by Stephen King

It has been a while but it was interesting to come back and re-read this one. Even though it was written earlier in Stephen King’s career you can see some of the trademarks of his writing, standing out more clearly when compared to his more recent work.

I found that I didn’t remember the ending as being quite so brutal (but it was) and I found myself more interested in the supernatural history of the “semetary” this time around.

Reading this made me think that it would be good to go back and read “The Stand”, which in its unabridged edition is a serious one month commitment for me to finish. Maybe after retirement?

The next book on my list is The Rage of Dragons by Evan Winter.
