Carrie by Stephen King

To kick off the 31 Days of Halloween, the first book on the list is Carrie. Doesn't this one just take you back to those high school days... There were a few kids that I would have liked to go all Carrie on... The remake of the movie hits theatres this month, so you can read the book then watch the movie and see how it all matches up.

Stephen King's legendary debut novel about a teenage outcast and the revenge she enacts on her classmates.
 
Carrie White may have been unfashionable and unpopular, but she had a gift. Carrie could make things move by concentrating on them. A candle would fall. A door would lock. This was her power and her sin. Then, an act of kindness, as spontaneous as the vicious taunts of her classmates, offered Carrie a chance to be normal and go to her senior prom. But another act--of ferocious cruelty--turned her gift into a weapon of horror and destruction that her classmates would never forget
