Title: Stephen King's touch
Review: "The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer" in the early, hardcover edition was placed on the non-fiction shelves of my local library, before it became apparent that this book was part of an elaborate marketing device involving a tv miniseries by Stephen King.The book is a well-written, gripping thriller of the haunted house genre. It appeals to the bodice-ripper-romance women's market, although it is crafted several notches above the average in that niche. Stephen King's touch is apparent, although reading this work did not give me bad dreams as many of his novels have done. I stopped reading them for a time because of that effect."Diary" is finely spun, a cotton-candy treat of a suspense novel.
