I like King's older stuff but haven't even tried to read his newer stuff. My favorites?

It
Misery
Dreamcatcher
Cujo

So excellent.

^^Those def. kick ass. I forgot to add Pet Sematary, which i always forget about, but is probably my favorite next to It. It's weird, because if you go around Bangor, Maine, the street names and the land is exactly the same as in Derry. It's wicked cool. I like Cujo a lot because there's no chapters and it begins with Once upon a time. <That's probably one of the best openings ever if you ask me.....

The Tommyknockers is the only book I ever went without sleep to finish. I think I read the whole thing in eight hours.

Really? haha, that was one of the few King books i never finished. Actually, i only read like 150 pgs of it or something. Maybe i should pick it back up.....

I saw the movie when I was 6. When the dolls came to life, I was traumatized for months. Spent the whole night screaming. Now THAT'S good horror! Of course, the movie now is cheesy and dumb but I've never read the book.. maybe I should.

^^Yeah, it's weird how i can think back and remember how many horror movies i actually saw before the age of six. it's amazing that i turned out "normal". Like i said too, when i was in third grade (which would have made me around 7), i decided to read It for the first time. It just seemed so thick, and i wondered what a book that big could possibly hold within. But yes, 6 and 7 are two crazy ages to be exposed to all of that, then again, there's probably worse i suppose....

Picked up the Deadzone a few days back and the second dark tower book. Tempted to get It but I'll wait with that for a while.

Saw the movie of It ages ago but I sadly can't remember much of it. Best image that sticks out though is my aunt saying she went into my cousin's room and found my cousin with a pillar over his head, watching It.

I just read 'The girl who loved Tom Gordon' didn't think I'd like it, but it really was an enjoyable light read.

Koontz is still my favourite though!

Koontz=redundant. it feels like i'm reading the same book, over and over again when i read him. I did like Life Expectancy, though. I can't even think of him in the same category as king though.
However, Anne Rice is the shit.>Read The Witching Hour
