Cujo by Stephen King

I can see why a lot of people have read tons of Stephen King, and not much of anything else. With Cujo, I knew what to expect, and was left satisfied on every point. It's a terrifying story of a rabid Saint Bernard in the Maine countryside.

King is a master when it comes to using verbs to give character to every scene, using the perfect amount of detail to make it all seem real. And in this case, the realness makes it more scary.

Our heroes, a mom and her four year old boy, are in trouble, and with every scene change, I felt myself begging anybody from the supporting cast to get the idea, and go to the rescue. And this is what you come to expect from Stephen King. Cujo was a great time, worth doing again.
