A relatively simple novel from King, I really enjoyed it. It was tense and you really root for the main characters.

DGRachel I‘ve seen several review lately, so first off - thanks for tagging me in those! I personally loved this one, but I‘ve seen a few so-so reviews. So tell me - if you loved it or didn‘t and what worked for you or didn‘t work for you? I find King hit or miss, and this was a big hit for me. I didn‘t think it was over-written (side eye to you, The Stand) and I loved the characters. 5y

Karkar I really enjoyed this one. I thought it was interesting how the daughters story unfolded 5y

JulAnna I grew up with SK books, but somehow this was one that I missed. Maybe the premise didn‘t appeal to me back then? Anyway, I enjoyed this very much, it didn‘t go the way I expected based on the synopsis. I am very glad I read it! 5y

Eggbeater Normally I love SK but this one just seemed badly researched when compared to the other ones. The little girl's voice was too old and thorazine is not addictive. It didn't hold a candle to The Shining. 5y

DGRachel @Eggbeater I do agree that Charlie didn‘t sound like a child, but I wonder if that is part of being forced to grow up hiding or on the run. It‘s always interesting to me to see how others react to books, because I loved this one but found The Shining to be underwhelming. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5y

so-so

I wanted to find out what happened, so that means parts of this book were good, but this one doesn't compare to the brilliance of some of King's other books. There were medical inaccuracies and I did not believe the story was being told from a child's perspective.

#Firestarter is one of my favorite King novels. This was my first time reading it and I loved it. Fast paced, engaging, and well written. I did not want to put it down. Charlie is a wonderful character and the government-as-bad-guy was almost too believable. **shudder**

tammysue Great review Rachel! Hoping you feel much better today! 🤗 5y

DGRachel @whatshesreadingnow Thank you! 5y

TrishB A great read 👍🏻 5y

AuthorJensenReed What scent of candle is that? I love candles 😍 5y

DGRachel @AuthorJensenReed It‘s a special edition called Omnis Vir Lupus from novellyyourscandles.com (created for the Red Rising trilogy of books by Pierce Brown). There are four distinct layers, but I don‘t remember the scents (they aren‘t on the label) 5y

I‘ve just reached the halfway point in #firestarter and y‘all, this book is SO GOOD! I don‘t want to put it down. But, #bailey has fallen asleep on my tummy and her snores are soporific. I don‘t know how much longer I can keep my eyes open. 😂😂
