Author Comments: 

Yeah. I always feel jealous when I read everyone else's lists likes these and they have thousands of things. But I'll get there. Steadily, but surely. And I'm 17, so I guess I could use that as an excuse, but I'd prefer not too. Hmm...

This list includes novels (of all variety/for all ages), graphic novels, and plays that I have read.

You read Dreamcatcher? - how could you? - I tried twice and gave up - and I used to love King. He's past his best now. Don't judge him by that turkey. Read IT or The Stand to get the best of King.

Catalyst03/03/2006

I tried once, got about halfway through and stopped. By the time I remembered it, I had already forgotten most of it. Then I managed to read it the second time. It was odd. And I'll have to read those sometime.

Catalyst05/28/2006

I finally got around to reading It. I feel accomplished. Hm.

bertie05/28/2006

I'm currently reading his latest - Cell - am about 1/3 into it and so far it's great. King's take on the 'zombie' or 'living dead' genre, only with a vaguely sf rationale.

Catalyst06/06/2006

Oo, when I get time I'll have to try that one.

CaptMal07/15/2007

I'm pretty sure Dreamcatcher is his best, and I've read a lot of his stuff...it's my favorite book, ever.

Tried reading Cell, didn't like it at all. One of the quick, cheap-o books he unfortunately writes for the money.

Catalyst07/18/2007

Oh yeah? I think my favorite has been the second book of the Dark Tower series. There was just something about it that I wasn't expecting that I really liked.

n2lect2el01/07/2007

#7--Romeo and Juliet--certainly counts.

Catalyst01/12/2007

I thought it did. A lot of people bother me when I say it's one of my favorites with novels like 1984, Lord of the Flies, etc.
