ELEVATION, by Stephen King










Horror -- 2 stars



Scott Carey looks the same as he has always looked.  Nobody notices that he is losing weight--a lot of it.  And nobody believes him when he says he weighs the same with his clothes on as he does with his clothes off.  Mix in a couple of quirky neighbors and a best friend, and Scott decides to make a difference before he disappears completely.  More an attempt to uplift than to frighten, this (very) short novel seems destined for the Saturday morning teen screen.  Predictable and flat.
