Cell by Stephen King
Upon reading the above-mentioned novel, I have decided to post a book review on my lovely blog.
Cell is very much similar to King's other novels (I.E., The Stand) in its major premise, but that still doesn't rob it of its snazzy jazzyness. The book is about a computer-like program that pulses through all cell phones on an October day without warning. Anyone on the cell phone or who can overhear someone's conversation were immediately converted into what are called "Phone Crazies", who have lost all sense of civilized manner and resort to killing people with their bare hands (or, in most cases, teeth). The sane survivors of what is called "The Pulse" now take different courses of action in dealing with the new way of living, including the ubiquitous changes in the "Phone Crazies".
It's one of those books that has phenomenal events from beginning to conclusion, instantaneously grasping the imagination of any reader. The plot takes twists and turns and also invites new and believable characters along the way. The ending is a bit incomplete in some opinions, but, in my own opinion, unless King wanted to make the book at least a thousand pages long, it was the only ending that could have been without being cliche or predictable on any account. This book is highly recommended by my person to anyone.
