One of the few King books I haven't read more than once. Overall, a good read. Some nice gross scene's, but not anything that stands out that I want to read again. Average. ( )

Probably one of my least favorite King books, but still a page turner. ( )

I wasn't too impressed with this book. Granted, it made you want to curl your toes and rip your hair out in disgust more often than not, and the ending was more than a little creepy... But what could (should) have been 200 pages was turned into 450 pages. Overall, it *was* boring, but it went nowhere at a pretty decent pace. 2/5 deaths that couldn't have been more hilarious, yet in a totally grotesque way. ( )

Gerald's Game failed to pass the fifty page test for me. As a Stephen King fan, I was truly disappointed with this book. Boring, boring, boring!!! ( )
