#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - New Original series from visionary showrunner Mike Flanagan coming soon to Prime Video. - Stephen King's legendary debut, the bestselling smash hit that put him on the map as one of America's favorite writers - In a world where bullies rule, one girl holds a secret power. Unpopular and tormented, Carrie White's life takes a terrifying turn when her hidden abilities become a weapon of horror. Unpopular at school and subjected to her mother's religious fanaticism at home, Carrie White does not have it easy. But while she may be picked on by her classmates, she has a gift she's kept secret since she was a little girl: she can move things with her mind. Doors lock. Candles fall. Her ability has been both a power and a problem. And when she finds herself the recipient of a sudden act of kindness, Carrie feels like she's finally been given a chance to be normal. She hopes that the nightmare of her classmates' vicious taunts is over . . . but an unexpected and cruel prank turns her gift into a weapon of horror so destructive that the town may never recover.

If you've only seen the movie you are missing out here. King weaves a tale of innocence, social acceptance, religion and sexuality! Woah.

Classic!
Louise K. - 6 years 7 months agoClassic "horror"? Gory Sci-Fi tale of what happens when the bullied girl fights back. This book is excellent, and strikes a little fear in the hearts of anyone who's ever stood by as someone was bullied. The book to start reading Stephen King with.
