Book description
Devin's summer job at Joyland wasn't supposed to be a heartbreak cure. It was supposed to be a distraction-just another soul-crushing college gig. Turns out, the real ghost haunting that amusement park wasn't a phantom in the old rollercoaster; it was his own grief, wrapped in a tattered cotton candy wrapper. Stephen King's Joyland isn't just another haunted house story-it's a masterclass in turning nostalgia into something that'll snag your heart and squeeze it like a faulty cotton candy machine.
As an audiobook? Pure magic. You don't just hear the creak of the Ferris wheel; you feel the rusty groan in your bones. King's voice (or the narrator's, whichever you're listening to) has this knack for making you lean in, whispering secrets like you're sharing a late-night soda with a friend who's about to tell you something devastating. The mystery-about a murder, a dying kid, and the kind of truth that lingers long after the park lights go out-unfolds with a quiet dread that'll have you pausing your walk to wipe a tear (yes, even if you're a hardened cynic who thinks all horror's just overpriced jump scares).
What really gets you, though, is how King makes you care about people who feel real, not just plot devices. Devin's not a hero; he's just a kid trying to figure out how to grow up when the world keeps knocking him down. The little girl he meets? She's not a damsel. She's a tiny force of nature demanding you believe in magic, even when it's gone. And the ending? Don't get me wrong-it's bittersweet, sure, but it's the kind of sweet that sticks to your teeth like old candy. You'll finish this audiobook and realize you've been holding your breath for two hours straight, then immediately want to play the whole thing again just to catch the little things you missed.
It's not just a horror story. It's a love letter to the messy, heartbreaking, beautiful way we all try to find our way out of the dark-whether it's a haunted amusement park or just the weird, wild ride of being alive. And honestly? After Joyland, even the most "hard-boiled" reader will admit they're weirdly sentimental about old rollercoasters. Trust me. You'll be texting your bestie at 2 a.m., whispering, "Wait... did you feel that?" And yeah, you will.
