![]() ![]() ![]() Stephen King's characters are always very well developed for the reader's enjoyment, with their most inner workings exposed for us to relate to and love or hate as the case may be. The book gets so much further into the inner workings of both Charlie's and her father's, Andy's, minds than the film ever could have. After immolating a few Shop agents to save her father, she's very upset at the thought of losing control of her "gift". (Though in all honesty, that is always my opinion.) I do picture Drew Barrymore as a little girl while reading about Charlie's conflict with using her "talent"-starting fires. I'm about 50 pages from the end and must say that the book is so much better than the film. Having saw the movie 15 years ago, I wanted to read the story of Charlie and Andy McGee. Long a horror fan, I've found myself reading the older novels lately. ![]()
