Christine (King novel): Difference between revisions

* [[Not Quite Dead]]: Christine. {{spoiler|Ever}}.

** [[Arc Words|Her unending fury]] [[Incredibly Lame Pun|drives her on]].

* [[Science Marches On]]: A crucial plot point is Leigh almost dying when she chokes on a hamburger in Christine because Arnie forgot about the Heimlich maneuver's existence and only gave her ineffective back blows, echoing an incident described earlier that involved Rita LeBay choking on a hamburger in Christine and dying when Roland LeBay gave her back blows because the Heimlich maneuver had not been invented yet. She is saved by the hitchhiker they picked up earlier, who gives her the Heimlich maneuver. Modern-day readers who are CPR certified will know that the care prescribed for a conscious choking victim involves a combination of back blows ''and'' abdominal thrusts.

* [[Sealed Evil in A Can]]

* [[Split Personality Takeover]]

* [[Sweater Girl]]: Leigh.

* [[Switching POV]]: The first part is narrated by Dennis, the second part is told by an omniscient third-person narrator and mostly focuses on Arnie, and the third part is narrated by Dennis again.

** To be more exact the radio in the 70s plays nothing but hits from the 50s.

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Arnie.
