Outside a peaceful town in central Maine, a monster is waiting. Cujo is a two-hundred-pound Saint Bernard, the best friend Brett Camber has ever had. One day, Cujo chases a rabbit into a cave inhabited by sick bats and emerges as something new altogether. Meanwhile, Vic and Donna Trenton, and their young son Tad, move to Maine. They are seeking peace and quiet, but life in this small town is not what it seems. As Tad tries to fend off the terror that comes to him at night from his bedroom closet, and as Vic and Donna face their own nightmare of a marriage on the rocks, there is no way they can know that a monster, infinitely sinister, waits in the daylight.

I had a lot of expectations for this book which it didn’t live up to. Which really disappointed me because it was written by Stephen King my all time favourite author by far.

The story line in this book was not the greatest to be honest. The main theme in this book is a rabid dog named Cujo but we only see Cujo in 5% of this book. And the rest of it is just characters running around and freaking out about different things. Which really bored me out while reading it.

The characters in this book are very flat, very boring and very annoying. Which is the worst possible combination to ever exist. 

This book was one of Stephen King’s earliest books so I can give him a pass on this book. This book was also written during the time where Stephen King had alcohol problems. 

The writing style in this book really dint feel like something written by Stephen King. It might be because of the alcohol problems which I’ve talked already about. 

This book has over 400 pages but I read it in one day which means that it is a quick read once you make up your mind to read it in one day. 

I Give This Book 1 / 5
