A truly frightening hike through the woods!

By ES the horror fan
Understandably, the New York Times called this book: “Frightening... feverish terror!” This chilling tale of Trisha McFarland, a nine-year-old girl who becomes lost in the woods while hiking with her single mother and older brother, is captivating from the beginning! I liked Trisha right away and, when she got lost in that huge, intimidating forest, I was rooting for her every step of the way, which was easy because King characterized her as such a courageous little girl who refused to give up, regardless of how hopeless her situation sometimes seemed. I always love Stephen King for his horror stories, which is exactly what this book is, but it’s also much more! It’s a story of bravery, hope, and strength in the face of impossible odds! Bravo, Stephen King! Bravo!👏 👍🏻👍🏻

I really wanted to love this book, but I hated every page of it. I’m a lifelong King fan and this one disappointed me tremendously.
A great summer tale

While not on par with spine-tingling works like It and Desperation, The Girl who Loved Tom Gordon stands out for its realism that morphs into surrealism. Parents everywhere will admit this story is a nightmare for them that will haunt them on their next walk in the woods with the kiddos.
Read this book!

As soon as Trisha gets lost I couldn’t put the book down. I loved the mystery and thriller. Great book if you like thriller!👌

This is my second time buying and reading this book. I got a lot I didn't get the first time through. Great book, but will make you think twice about hiking.

Boring, I was skimming through most of it
Unrealistic

A 9 year old wouldn't last one night in the forest, let alone over a week and hiking over 30 miles. The story is totally unrealistic. The writing is good, typical King, but I kept thinking "this is stupid!"
LOVE ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I was given this book by my mother, who rarely lends me books that are boring. Well, let just thank my mom for this book. I read it a long time ago and loved it...all the little details, subtle nuances, and THE GIRL! By far one of my favorite books ever in my 36 years. Bravo, Mr. King!

I love this book so much. I read it the first time in one night, and I have read it again countless times whenever I feel lost. I'm with you Trish, pointing to the sky! ☝️
