Oh, that’s a tough one. Hmm.
Skeleton Crew and Night Shift are amazing for short stories.
As for novels, I just loved reading The Stand and It when I was younger. Also, the Dark Tower series. It didn’t have the best ending, but I loved those.
Latter day King, I love Desperation/The Regulators and Under the Dome and 11.22.63.
This is kind of like asking which is your favorite child? 😂0 -

I'm reading The Man in the High Castle. Frankly, I think it kinda sucks, which surprises me. It's a bit of a slog. Barely anything happens for most of it. It could have been so much better, with the amazing concept.

I also love Stephen King so much! Huge fan. His books are never a slog, lol.

I grew up on comics, Choose Your Own Adventure, and books in dinosaurs. 😂
Once someone handed me Pet Sematary in 6th grade, it was all over. Love reading now. King is still my favorite.0 -

Sorry to repeat here, but this book is flat out amazing. I read it a little at a time, savoring every page, paragraph, sentence. The book being only 100 pages, you can tell by my notes that I really got into this one, lol."It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0

Second time around for this classic Edward Abbey. And what's really great is that this is the first Abbey book I ever read, some 50 years ago. So long ago in fact, it's like reading it for the first time. One of his best!"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0

Finally finished this last night. I started reading it two years ago on a long flight to Hawaii and had about 50 pages left at the end of the trip that I finally finished. Really enjoyed it overall.

Good choice!
My wife recently read an historic novel that intertwines the lives of Isak Dinesen and Beryl Markham. If I recall correctly, it was Circling the Sun by Paula McLain. She really liked it.

Yeah, the show really isn't much like the book. I read it because i likes the show, and ended up being disappointed. I mean, the book has some things about it that a reader might appreciate, but mostly it's blurg for me.
