Unabridged Audiobook
I have always loved this book and movie. But to have Mr. King and Ms. Spacek narrate one of my most favorite books (and movies) of all time is bliss, sheer bliss. Do yourself a favor, get this book, you'll enjoy it.
I enjoyed the narrarator's slight accent and she does the different character voices very well. I personally did not care for the jumping back and forth between the court case and the main story only because it would pause the building suspense but then again I'm not a legendary story teller... I also realized that this book was written in the 70's and that was probably a very new and cool twist at the time idk. I enjoyed it and now will probably go try the movie.
This is the first book I’ve ever listened too and I thought it was great. The way Stephen writes you can totally envision what’s happening. Having Sissy Spacek narrating is genus.
I really enjoyed Sissy Spacek's narration, truly good. The format was slightly different from the usual, which was an enjoyable departure.
This was a good book. loved the narrator. excellent choice. She did an excellent job, especially because she was Carrie in the movie.
The way King makes this story play along as a police interrogation leading to flashbacks was well written and I'm surprised it has not been adapted as such on film. The story is a gruesome coming of age tale and one that resonates with all readers in some fashion as the high school dynamic presented in the book is outstanding. A fun read and an even more enjoyable listen.
This book was recommended to me by an Audio-Book-Loving friend as her absolute favorite go-to book. It did not disappoint. Aside from being a classic, the narration is fantastic. Also, the book is pretty short, which is convenient for me. Highly recommend.
One of my all time favorite books, with an amazing introduction read by the author, plus the star of the original film adaptation narrating the book. Score: grand slam! King expertly describes and Spasek emotes all the pathos of teen ostracism and rage. A must own!
