A dark novel exploring the adventures of one ragtag team of middle school boys. I found the book to be dark and emotional, but it described the lives of young boys in that period in rural America perfectly. ( )

Shhhhhh I read a Stephen King book again and I don't need to be in a padded room. Growing up in Northern Maine he's scared the ever-living shit out of me more than once. This story was around 4 kids and their adventures. non of them had an easy upbringing and overall the story telling was on point. Some of the flashbacks I wasn't too fond of, but overall was great storytelling. ( )

"Do you guys want to see a dead body?"

This single statement starts a weekend that will forever change the lives of four young childhood friends.

Ray Brower has gone missing and four young boys from Castle Rock, Maine know where to find him. Gordie LaChance, Chris Chambers, Teddy Duchamp, and Vern Tessio set out to find Brower's body along the train tracks. As they set out, the boys realize that their adventure is more than it seems. Through their hike, the boys combat the heat, hunger, leeches, and the juvenile delinquents who also want credit for finding Brower's body. At the end of their trip, they have seen a dead body and learned who they were as men.

I listened to this on audio and found the narrator fantastic at portraying older Gordie as he retold the story of finding a dead body with his three best friends. He brought genuine emotion and understanding to each character and displayed them in a way where the reader truly cares for them and wants them to succeed.

Originally part of a book of short stories entitled Different Seasons, this story was the basis for the classic 1980s movie Stand By Me. King does a magnificent job of telling the perfect coming of age story while incorporating details to invest the reader in the outcome ( )

I loved this coming of age story (novella) told through the eyes of an author in his middle age about a summer during his 12th year. Some of the lines will really stick with me, which is saying a lot since I listened the audio book versus reading it to myself. Things seem to stick with me more and having a larger impact overall when I read them myself. I thought the narrator was quite good though and while there were a few parts that I lost focus on the plot, I thought this was beautifully written. I felt like I was there with Chris, Vern, Teddy, and Gordy. I have never seen the movie before, but I really want to now. ( )

King kitaplarını satın alıp okumayı tercih etsem de bu kitabın baskısı olmadığı ve uzun bir süre çıkmasını beklemediğim için kütüphaneden alıp okudum.
King'in okuduğum çoğu romanını sevdim ve bu romanlar arasında uzun olanları ise daha fazla sevdiğimi farkettim, bu yüzden King'in ne kadar uzun yazarsa kitabın o kadar iyi olduğunu düşünüyorum.Hikâyelerini de malum kısa oldukları için başarısız buluyorum(Tabiki King'e göre başkası yazsa beğeniceğim çok hikâyesi var).Bu kitap 2 tane uzun hikâyeden oluştuğu için bu kitabı beğenmeyeceğimi düşünüyordum ama okuyunca ne kadar önyargılı yaklaştığımı farkettim ve iki hikâyeyi de beğendim.Özellikle kitaba adını da veren Ceset hikâyesini daha çok beğendiğimi belirtmemde fayda var.Ceset te kaybolan bir çocuğun cesedini arayan 4 yakın arkadaşın başından geçen olayları ve bu olaylar sonucunda arkadaşlık bağlarını konu alıyor.Hikâyenin sonunda merak ettiğim bazı soruların cevabını bulamadım, bu da hikâyeye gizem katmış.Hikâyenin sonu baştan belli olduğu için kendisi şaşırtmıyor ama hikayedeki konuşma tarzı güzeldi.
İkinci hikâye olan Öfke de ise liseye de okuyan bir çocuğun aşırı öfke sorunu sonunda yaptığı sebep olduğu olayları ve bunları yapma sebebini anlatıyor.İçeriğiyle ilgili fazla bilgi vermek istemiyorum.Kitabın üslubu klasik King üslubu olmasına karşın hikâye beklediğimden farklı sonlanıyor bu sayede özgün bir hikâye oluyor.
