" WHAT MOVIE?! I cannot believe I thought the movie told the entire story! The way King builds characters is simply amazing. After all of these years I expected I knew everything that happened from the movie! This book only makes me want to get MORE King books so I know I’m not missing any of the exciting details! When this book ended, I immediately started another and just bought another SK book. "

" My second Stephen King book, and it was even better than my first! Constant suspense, I was absolutely addicted! Annie was an insanely creepy character, I loved the way she switched from sickly sweet to absolutely crazy and back again at the drop of a hat. Her little phrases were hilarious ("You bet your rooty-patooties I did" in particular made me laugh uncontrollably.) The movie is fantastic as well! "

" Misery is definitely one of my favorite King novels so far. Be that as it may, I haven't read much of Stephen King's work so there isn't much for me to compare it to yet. Anyway, if you want a great suspense story that you could finish in under a week, purchase a copy of this novel. "

" I read this book about twenty years ago, so maybe I am being harsh. Really, though, I find Stephen King to be wordy and boring. He likes to fancy himself such a shocking writer, I am sure, but I think he just drags on and on. "

" Not as instantly readable as some of King's other books, but well worth the time to stick to it. Unfortunately, the made for tv movie ruined some of this book for me, so perhaps that's why it took me so long to finish.

" Great book, except the very end. This is something that Stephen King does quite a bit, unfortunately. He tells a great story and uses a contrivance to finish it. It doesn't mean I stop reading; it's just a bit jarring.

" King absolutely knows how to tell a story. I love the allegorical nature of the book, pitting good against evil. I'm not a person that loves post-apocalyptic stories, but King makes me want to love this genre. One of the best reads I've had in years.
