Misery by Stephen King (1987, Hardcover)

Awesome!

I love this book and movie. Years ago, in middle school or high, I let someone borrow it. I cannot remember who it was and was devastated to never get it back. I don’t like the new covers so came to my trusty store on eBay! Beautiful condition; hardly looks as if it’s been open. Thrilled to own one of my favorites from King once more. Read full review

A Horror Classic

Decades ago I missed the boat on this one. Then the movie came out and I needed another decade or so to get that out of my system. The story in the original novel here was far more brutal than the movie. There were some rather convenient plot points that helped speed the story along. However, I won't spoil that for any readers who may be new to the Stephen King experience. Misery was one King's best. Personally, I go in for the paranormal side of King's novels and stories. This one is very much a flesh and blood tale without any of the paranormal. It worked. Annie Wilkes will go down as one of the all-time baddies. Read full review

Easy to follow. A real page turner!

I have been collecting certain Stephen King novels in hardcover and Misery was difficult to get. The book arrived in good condition. I didn't mind that it was a library book but was surprised to find a card and pouch in the back of the book. It did make me chuckle.Read full review

GOOD BUT BAD CONDITION

The book itself is in good shape BUT it smells really bad. Idk if it’s due to it being from 1987. I honestly don’t know if the price beats the bad smell.

Shipped very quick and was packed very well but book has a musty odor to it.
