Holy big balls! Good thing they have meds that kind of character.4/10A disappointing read, I was looking forward to this twofold; its a King book but also because it has an elusive feel about it with it now no longer being in print. It was taken out of print at Kings request because of some real life High School shootings but I have to wonder if he was also looking at the quality of it and that might have been a factor.

As he faces expulsion from high school and being sent to a reform school, Charlie breaks.
The Stephen King Goodreads Discussion Group is doing a re-read of his works from the beginning to the end. Its been a long time since I have really immersed myself in Uncle Stevies world, but a rate of a book a month, I am all in.
