"VINTAGE KING... BREATHTAKING, AWESOME... CARRIES SUCH MOMENTUM THE READER MUST FORCE HIMSELF TO SLOW DOWN!"
- NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

Christine is no lady, but 17-year-old Arnie Cunningham loves her enough to do anything to posses her.  Arnie's best friend Dennis distrusts her at first sight.  Arnie's teen-queen girlfriend Leigh fears her the moment she senses her power.  Arnie's parents, teachers and enemies soon learn what happens when you cross her.  Christine is no lady.  She is Stephen King's ultimate blackly evil vehicle of horror...

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
