Gerald's Game

**The Gooch** · January 14th, 2008

I find this book a very simple idea that really worked for me. This is one of those books you get through in a day. Minus the horror fantasy elements, there is so much of this book which could happen in real life which is what I like in my horror.

I enjoyed it, read it like most of his stories, the ole eyeballs going back and forth, at times jumping off my face and turning the pages for themselves, suspense beyond belief, and that dog! There's some neato quotes in Gerald's Game: "They ought to make it a law that you have to get a license, or at least a learner's permit, before you're allowed to talk...Until you pass your Talker's Test, you should have to be a mute."

"afterimages floated in front of her eyes like a round black tatoo surrounded by an irregular halo of green fire"

blues and yellows, interesting and repeating color pattern in King's yarns.....some "chuffing laughter" hmmm...dunno...newsprint dots...Wonder bread.

Have you read Dolores Claiburne? Did I spell that right? Looks like no. The Trap by Tabitha King is another cool read kinda like GG.

Definitly a FAV!!! This book both repulsed and enthralled me at the same time. I loved the part where the doggie came into play.

Gerald's Game is definitely one of my top 3. All that you would expect from KING...the suspense, blood, and the sex what's not to love about the book!

"Gerald's Game" should be made on Kingsbury pond in Maine-perfect location/setting

I really enjoyed this book as well. I had not read for quite a few years while my children were young, just too tired. This was one of the first books i picked up to start reading again and I just loved it. At times i can relate to the character.

I found this book disturbing and a different turn for Mr. King. Maybe I found it so disturbing as my husband's middle name is Gerald and that's what he goes by.

I keep giving up on it. Im thinking "Is this girl REALLY gonna be in her bed the whole time??" Oh well, one day when I run out of others I will pick it up again.
