I gave it a 3. It was a decent story, but nothing to write home about.

I gave it a 4. Not perfect, but very very good. I re-read a few years ago for the first time in a very long time and it still held up for me. I still particularly like all of the lyrical references to songs about cars King makes at the beginning of each chapter. It'd make for a good playlist.

A 3 for me, too. Really dragged in places.

I gave this one a 1. I hated this book. It took forever for me to even get through it.

I gave it a 4 for the same reason I gave Thinner a 4. It was a little better than okay and I would have felt like a liar if I'd made it a 3.

Ooph, harsh, Aaron. But I can't disagree. Like I said, I had to really labor through some parts. But I remember others vividly and fondly. So, average.

This one gets a 2. It was ok, but never warranted a second look for me.

3 , and thats all I can say except even as an average SK novel it was worth reading.

I'm between a 3 & a 4 on this one - I'll give it a 3.
Not a bad tale but it's never had the big re-read pull on me (I mean I've read it a few times but not as often as many of kings)

I gave it a 5. It was my first King book ever and still stands up as a good story on a reread :thumbsup:
Also, like Jayson, I love the way lyrics are used in this tale.

4. One of about 10 kings that I would recommend to someone who has never read anything by King. Very original. I would have never though of a plot about a demonic car of all things. I wonder if Maximum Overdrive sprung from this seed, or vice-versa.
Also, From a Buick 8. Hmmmmm....

Also, I must say that using a Plymouth Fury is absolute genius.
