Dolores Claiborne by Stephen KingMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
For years, I refused to read anything by Stephen King, as I was not into horror books. Then, I discovered Dolores Claiborne.
I first read this more than a decade ago, and figured it was time to reread Dolores Claiborne, and am glad I did. This well-written book is done from Dolores's point-of-view, telling what happened both when her late-husband died and the events leading up to the death of her employer, Vera Donovan. While the book is not within the horror genre, it does have a certain grittiness and tells of several deaths that were within Dolores's inner-circle.
For those who have seen the movie on which this was based, you know the book's basic premise. Whether you've viewed the movie or not, though, this is one book that is well worth the read.
