The long way, It and Misery are books that Stephen
King wrote.
The long way, this is the less famous and shortest
one. It talks about a future realty where once a year the United States’
population make a big competition called “The long way”. It consists in a race
where the 100 teenagers, that participate in it, have to walk from Maine to the
East coast of the United States. They can’t go less than 6.5 km/h during 30
seconds or stop, even to eat or sleep .If they do it they will get a warming.
If they have 3 warnings, the police will kill them. The last survivor is the
winner and he can have whatever he wants. Maybe “It” is the most famous,
because it has a lot of movies. It’s longer than the others, too. It talks
about a group of 7 friends that have to kill the monster that lives in Derry
(the city where they live). They try it when they’re 11, but they can’t kill it
at all, they just hurt it. So they meet 27 years later and they finally kill
the monster. And last, but no least, Misery. It talks about a writer that is
kidnapped by his number one fan, after he had a car accident. His number one
fan forces him to write an alternative end for his last book, even when he has
the two legs broken.
In my opinion, Misery is the most interesting; it has
you in tension all the time. “It” is the longest, but it’s interesting, too.
It’s more descriptive than others. And The long way is the shortest, however,
for me is scarier than the others, because it doesn’t have a concrete finally.
In conclusion, if you want a short, but scary book I
recommend you The long way. If you prefer a longer one the best book for you is
It and if you prefer a mystery book recommend you Misery. It’s the best book
that I have in my shelf.
