Imagine you're minding your own business, living your best gluttonous life, when BAM... an old Romani man curses you, and suddenly, you're shedding pounds faster than a horror fan devours a new King release. That’s Thinner for you! A mix of psychological horror, supernatural justice, and a brutal commentary on guilt, privilege, and, well... bad luck.
King's writing is razor-sharp (pun intended), and the pacing? Absolutely relentless. Billy Halleck, our unfortunate protagonist, goes from smug lawyer to skeletal speed-runner of doom, and watching his descent is both fascinating and terrifying. The tension builds like a well-baked pie (you’ll get it when you read it. Or maybe you won’t. But trust me, it's wild).
I loved this one, the dark humor, the creeping dread, the way King makes you question everything. It’s not just about the curse; it’s about how far someone will go to escape their fate. And let’s be honest, if an ancient curse ever came my way, I'd be calling the Man in Black faster than you can say "white man from town."
If you love Stephen King’s weirdly specific brand of horror, this one’s a must-read. Just… maybe don’t eat pie while reading. Trust me. 🍽️😨
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💀 – because Stephen King never misses.
💭 Would you rather face this curse or be trapped in Misery with Annie Wilkes?
