Pet Sematary

  I'm currently reading the book "Pet Sematary" by Stephen King. What I have noticed about this book is that the author does a really good job of describing every little detail in the story. I like the way that the author wrote the book with a lot of detail because I can picture the story in my head easily. King does a good job of writing about the setting of the book.
  Within the first sentence I learned a lot about the main character already. " Louis Creed, who had lost his father at three and who had never known a grandfather, never expected to find a father as he entered his middle age, but that was exactly what happened...although he called this man a friend..."(3). This sentence described the main character's life and family. This already gave me a picture of how the man lives and what exactly happens before the story is started.
  Another way that King makes his story very good is that he describes every little detail in the setting. " The engine ticked, In the silence, which seemed very big after Chicago and the bustle of state street and the loop, a bird sang sweetly in the late afternoon." In this excerpt he described every little detail like how the engine ticked and how a bird was singing in the late afternoon, this just gives me a bigger picture and i can clearly see what's happening.
  I just started reading this book and I like the book already, I like the book because of all the descriptions that the author King writes in the book. It gives me a good idea of what the setting would look and this just makes the book more interesting to read.
