February 9 (page 23): This Richard Bachman guy is one sick puppy. I'm not ready to label this violence porn yet, but it is definitely toying with the limits of violent behavior right out the gates.
February 11 (page 76): I can't wait to be done with this book. Maybe I've just been hardened from news stories of myriad school shootings, but Charlie's interactions with the rest of the class just seem a little too cozy. On the other hand, if it's an adult, it's cruel and/or fatal.
(Note: I later finished the book. I guess these updates work better for stuff like The Stand. Review to come.)
