I have a real guilty-pleasure, love/love realtionship with Stephen King books. I don't care how literarily unhip that is. Christine was the first big-girl book I ever read--I was in the fourth grade and we'd just moved to California. I didn't have any friends or anywhere to go yet, so I spent my days poking around in the library, like any good nerd. I'd heard somewhere that Stephen King books contained scandalous curse words, so I picked it out of the library's King collection because the title resembled my own name. I would never have been allowed to check that book out, so I read the whole thing on the sly, curled up on a bean bag in the back of the library, shitting my pants, and unable to explain to my parents why I suddenly refused to go through the garage to take the bins out on trash day. Ah, youth.

classic. what a great story you told yourself with this. yes, king is great and I couldn't imagine reading this in fourth grade. I just read it at 38 years old and it gave me nightmares, two nights in a row. This book and Salem's lot are the only two books I've ever read that have given me nightmares.
Salem's Lot is King's finest hour in my opinion.
Lol this is the best review ever...
I love reading any book that is by Stephen King he is my best author
I really loved the book too! I read the entire thing on my kindle in 8th grade in 3 days, and I honestly took a little offense at how it’s pretty sexist and it has some VERY strong curse words. But overall it was a decent book. It’s amazing how great you taste in books was! Did you like the book itself or were you just scared shitless lol?
Ditto was the first book from Stephen king at 17, from then on im a real big fan of king and read all of his books I am so grateful to a x girlfriend to get me to read it
