Carrie

I'm still on a quest to read and collect (in hardback) every Stephen King novel. It's like those people that climb Mount Everest or unlock every secret in a video game. Or something.

This is actually King's first book. I decided that since he wasn't putting out any more new ones (for now) I'd start from the beginning and work my way forward through the ones I haven't read yet. All I know about Carrie is that it involves some high school loser and the movie had Sissy Spacek, who narrates this audiobook version, covered in buckets of blood.

From Amazon:

The story of misfit high-school girl, Carrie White, who gradually discovers that she has telekinetic powers. Repressed by a domineering, ultra-religious mother and tormented by her peers at school, her efforts to fit in lead to a dramatic confrontation during the senior prom.
It should be interesting to compare this book to King's later stuff.
