Damn Good, Finsihed It Around 2 Weeks Ago, Brilliant I Dont Get Why They Didnt Cut Paul's /James Caan's Foot And/Or His Thumb On The /Film. I Especially Loved Part3:Paul And Part !V:Goddess. Still The Second Best Book I Ever Read, The Best Being Cujo. You Should Read/Watch it if you havent already because it has a greta and clever amount of humor, give Cujo a try too.

Misery was one of my favorite Stephen King books. Annie Wilkes is alot like Norman Bates from Psycho.

Stephen King is by far my favorite authors. People call me wierd for reading his books all the time because they are "twisted." Yes, maybe they are, but i love them. I have read at least thirty Stephen King and Richard Bachman books, and needless to say i love them.

Just finished the book. Loved it. Although, when it gets gory, it gets really gory. Maybe even a little to gory, and I'm the kinda guy who enjoys gore. Hope to try hire out the movie sometime soon. Brilliant.

This is my favorite novel by The Master. My favorite thing about this novel, indeed all of King's work, is how reading it is like having the author tell you the story. It's absolutely amazing. This is one of my two favorite books.

One of my favourites! I'm only 13 but ever since reading this book all I ever want to do is become an author like Stephen King!

This is a fabulous book, had me at the edge of my seat all along, where i could feel all that Paul was feeling. Annie's moodswings were amazing and the effects her psychotic episodes were thrilling. I'm only 16, and haven't read many books, but this is in my top 5 !

this is the first book i read and suprisingly this is scaryier than the movie. which is suprising for me. just it is sadistic and i like it.

This is one of Stephen Kings best novels, IMHO. Though I read it several years ago for the second time, the characters are still fresh in my mind. Annie is one of his most perfectly rendered villains. She truly comes to life (and, by the way, Kathy Bates has now become her in my mind;her performance in the movie was awesome). The protagonist writer is sympathetic and very real as well. While I think this is an excellent novel, it also has one of the most horrific scenes I've ever witnessed in fiction--Annie running down the young policeman on a riding lawnmower while the narrator watches helplessly through a second story window. This is an example of how Mr. King can really push the envelop of his readers' tolerance for horror. Myself, I had to close the book for a time, but inevitably trusted his writing enough to get over my revulsion and finish this truly suspenseful novel. I remember the ending as being particularly satisfying.

A truly dark and horrific satire on humanity and society's obsession with celebrity culture. The humour was dark and the pace pitch perfect. Misery's only downfall was its two-dimensional characters, not properly fleshed out or developed (The Shining is far superior)! Not one of his best, but still a gripping read.

I love reading this book. I read it at least once every year. The movie is great as well. I think Kathy Bates was with perfect cast for Annie. She is great. Mr. King, please, please never stop writting! I have loved everything I have read thus far.

Loved this book, couldnt put it down - which was quite annoying as I was awake until 3am reading it!

I love this book, the best book I have ever read!

I had just recovered from my fever when I finished this book. So, naturally, I was not at the top of my energy yet. And have you any idea what Misery's done to me? Well, it's made me thought i was gonna be sick again. You're the man, Uncle Steve!
Posted By: David - 02/03/2009 - 1:45 PM EST
Misery is the first Stephen King's book I read and I think it's one of is best. Thank you for your stories, these books made me love reading.

Im 12 and this was my first Stephen King book. I thought it was a very good book..... I couldnt put it down. I cant wait to go pick up another book at the library.

stephen should be pleased with this
Posted By: Misery - 12/20/2008 - 4:17 AM EST
Hi, Misery is a fluent movie and typical Stephen King style story. Thing that makes me impress at a movie or story is telling a subject that may come true,and of course I shouldn't be able to guess what is going to happen one step ahead. That's why I like Stephen King's style. Regards,

This one of King's best books in my opinion.
Posted By: Adam Barnett - 12/06/2008 - 9:02 AM EST
This is one of the most amazing books i have ever read. The characters are so well written and you really feel for then, also the idea was a really good one, i dont know how anyone could come up with it! I actually liked Annie, well sorta, lol. By the end i didnt know whether to be sad or happy for her. Also the ending was verrrry good and satisfying in a weird sort of way. This is such an amazing book!
Posted By: Arthur - 12/02/2008 - 7:54 PM EST
I really enjoyed reading this book over a 2 day period, it was so hard to put down. It made me scared as i have a ex- girlfriend who won't leave me alone and reading what some people are capable of when there "in love" is disturbing to me! I haven't had a decent sleep since.
Posted By: AmareS - 10/31/2008 - 10:26 PM EST
I finished reading this book about a month ago, and i was speechless. the first King book ive ever read, and I simply loved it! it's amazing how King describes details and made the characters and plot come to life. I highly recommend this book

this is was the first stephen king novel i ever read and it is still my favorite to this day.
Posted By: Bookworm101 - 10/13/2008 - 7:57 PM EST
Love this story. Scared the beejees out of me. A real life monster whom may live in your community. A must read. If I should ever meet Uncle Steve you can bet I won't tell him " I'm your # 1 fan ".

Annie for President anyone? I dont know how anybody else felt, but I thought Paul Sheldon got what was coming to him. He was a very dislikeable character in my opinion: selfish and smug, a real dirty birdie. Annie had bipolar depression and you can call her crazy, but she treated Paul extremely well and saved his life. Obviously something wasnt right in her mind to have committed the crimes she did, but as Mohammed Ali said, its not the action that makes someone a bad person, its the intent. She did those things because she thought she was doing what was right, whereas Pauls mindset was set at making choices that suited himself.
Posted By: TeaNana - 09/07/2008 - 11:01 AM EST
This is an amazing book. I could barely put it down. It was very gripping and you felt as though you were there with Annie and Paul. I would definatly recommend it to all King fans.

Best book ever written. No other words about it.

This was the best book i've ever read, my favorite book. Well ploted and well written. I'm not saying the all of your other books arent as good and I cant because I just started reading your books and have only read 5. But this book will keep me reading Stephen King -Signed Adam S. D.
Posted By: Harmony - 08/14/2008 - 7:42 PM EST
Great book! This was the first Stephen King book I read....many, many years ago. Unfortunately, I saw the movie first so the whole time I pictured Kathy Bates when I was reading it. It's always better to read the book first!
Posted By: Raphael - 08/11/2008 - 9:06 PM EST
One of his greatest works. I am amazed that he can weave such a complex story with only two major characters in one house. Brilliant, it has been my favorite book since I read it.
Posted By: El Greco - 08/07/2008 - 5:10 PM EST
Never had the chance to read the book, saw the film. Agree that this must be King's nightmare in writing...
Posted By: Doc - 07/30/2008 - 11:56 PM EST
This was the first book that I read of King when I was thirteen years old. I grabbed a copy at the grocery store and went into my room to read it. I didn't come out for two days. I was hooked. My first thought while reading it was "how could a person think up something so horrific"? My next thought was "I gotta read his next book." Been a fan ever since.
Posted By: Rjt65 - 07/24/2008 - 11:41 AM EST
This had to be nightmare of S. Kings come to paper. One of the great books that translated to an excellent movie.
