A tragic but much-needed reminder that the Ripper's victims were people. Highly recommended.

StuPC reviewed Fairy Tale by Stephen King
WELCOME TO THE DARK SIDE OF HAPPILY EVER AFTER

Not his usual standard
2 stars
Stephen King is one writer whose style I really admire: it's so transparent and frictionless; seemingly simple, it's very hard to do well, and even his less interesting books slip down easily. Sadly, Fairy Tale doesn't meet this (admittedly high!) standard. It's long, slow, and a slog; not scary nor particularly engaging. Fingers crossed it's a minor blip in an otherwise impeccable career!
