Title: The Mist Author: Stephen King Copyright date: 1980 Publisher: New American Library How many pages: 230 How long it took me to read: Less than a week
Category: Horror/Sci-Fi I learned about this book from: The movie This book was purchased at: Purchased at Target by Laura, but was lent to me by Ryan :) This book is: Scary as frak, but really good and hard to put down. Other books by this author: Thinner, The Green Mile, The Shining, Christine, etc.
Favorite characters: Ollie, David, Billy Least favorite Characters: Mrs. Carmody When and Where the story takes place: present day Maine Plot in a nutshell: The back says "[A small town is suspended] in a haze of terror -- as humanity makes its last stand against unholy destruction... Main characters: David What I liked best: The suspense, how it ended What I liked least: I didn't like the sad stuff. The spiders were gross lol... oh, I also dislike that you never learn how this all happened.
Overall Rating: Very creepy, very entertaining. I liked how the chapters were set up. I would recommend this book for sure, but I don't see how the movie could be successful. I guess I'd actually have to watch it to find out though :)
