Characterizaion and Cujo

Sorry to say here, but I think Stephen was reaching a bit with "Cujo". Sure, it's horrible for your pet -- or anything, for that matter -- to contract rabies. However, as far as an entertaining "horror" read -- well, it just seemed...mundane. I would definitely have expected much more from such an imaginative writer as Stephen. Just my opinion, though. I'd just like to see the first years' sales record for it when it came out

I liked the book Cujo, felt it had plenty of "horror" and was far from "mundane". Just goes to show, you can't please everybody.
