I've read practically everything Stephen King has ever written. He's defintely one of my favorite authors. I read Nightmares and Dreamscapes a while ago though. I want to get ahold of it again and then watch the tv series they made.

i do have that book but i haven't got around to reading it...how did you like it??
and i'm sad to say the only king book i have read was "the girl who loved tom gordon" or osmething like that and the only thing that made me finish it was the fact that it was a Stephen King book...but yeah, i didn't care for that book i would love to read the shinning...b/c it's a fact books are better than the movie based on a book and i LOVED the movie..

The Cell (or it's just Cell), one of his newer books and Lisey's Story (I think it just came out) are both good. But if you want Stephen King at his finest, read the Cell. It reads a lot like his older books!

I didn't read that one (It's thick, so I think I'll read it when I hove down time.), but The Shining. I also have Cell and Cujo- which I will be reading shortly.
I've read that, and it was on channel five last night! lol. I've seen Carrie but not read the book, i'd like to though. I've read and seen the film of The shinning, i think it's great. I'm so glad that Jack Nicholson is the actor they picked. He portays the chatacter perfectly.

Really? I was so wrapped up in that book, i couldn't put it down!
But i did read it when i was like 11 or 12, so anything would have interested me.

I think Pet Sematary is by far his scariest one, its close though between that and The Stand. I really like his non-horror stories too though, like The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon and Rita Hayworth And Shawshank Redemption.
