i didn’t care much for the drama between the people, but I knew it was necessary. I was just bored during those parts. thankfully, Cujo the dog made up for it, everytime it was his perspective.

And the whole part of being stuck in the car was written really well. I was very tense the whole time.

Although it could have used a thorough editor, the theme of pain and trauma being experienced in isolation is still prevalent and Cujo the St. Bernard deserved a better end.
