1.0 out of 5 stars Not even close to being as good as her hubby., April 16 2005

By	DreamyDeppMama (Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Trap (Hardcover)

The only reason I got this book is because she is Stephen King's wife. If she didn't have his name or backing, then I don't think she would ever be published (based only on this one book of hers, as I have not ready anything else she has written)

A woman who is in a cold, loveless marriage takes off to a summer cabin with her young son, and then every womans worst nightmare happens..She and her son are trapped in hell with rapists and murderers. The rape scenes are vulgure, disturbing and not at all needed.

Boring beginning, Predictable ending and violent to the core. One star.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Trap, Jan 29 2004

By	"ellie04" (WV USA) - See all my reviews

I've been a huge fan of horror novels most of my life and in the course of reading book jackets noticed that my favorite author's wife was also a writer. This is the first and only book of Tabitha King's that I have read or will ever read. I was greatly disappointed and at times disgusted. I felt like I had been thoroughly robbed of my time after reading this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars an okay read, Nov 26 2001

By	Jennifer L. Oliver "ollie1976" (Youngsville, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

An okay read that took awhile to get interesting. After Liv left her husband with her son to their summer home is only when the story got interesting (and after about 100 pages). Some interesting thriller but predictable outcomes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous Book!
I loved this book. I thought the characters were fascinating and richly textured, as they always tend to be in Tabitha King's writings. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars It's impossible to care about these characters!
I generally like Tabitha King's work, more so than her husband's, in fact, but I'm afraid this book is simply dreadful. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit rough, but a great start.
This is the book that hooked me on Tabitha King. I found that I much preferred her writing to that of her husband and set out to find all that she had published. Read more
