What's your favourite Stephen King novel? I like one of his newer novels, Finders Keepers. I think he's having something of a renaissance at present.

I loved misery. Thinner is a good one. Green mile was a better film than a novel imo.

Under the dome is the next one on my list to read

The stand, although never been able to do the book justice on screen unfortunately.

I've never read a Stephen King novel that I didn't like, I'm a big fan. IT is probably the one I return to most often, and was also the first that I read.

Only really read his early stuff. IT was probably the last one I read when it first came out.

Carrie, The Shining, Salem's Lot.

The Stand for me, though I do also enjoy Needful Things and Firestarter.

Loved the stand, but it needed a big budget to do it justice. Enjoyed the mini series though.

Haven't read anything since the Dark Tower series when he decided to have a dig at his critics and added himself as a character and ruined the ending by going on a rant.

The stand and Salem's lot are the only ones I've ever gone back to

Goodness, that’s tricky and I chop and change. I think the best is probably It but in terms of others I’ve really enjoyed - Salem’s Lot, Pet Sematary, The Outsider, The Stand and 22.11.63. Oh, and any books with Holly Gibney in too! Mr.

And The Regulators.

I'll give a shout out to one of his later ones- Mr. Mercedes. Seemed a bit of a curve ball for him to suddenly do a grounded bit of crime fiction; but he knocked it out of the park. And it still manages to be terrifying.

Carrie, was the first book I bought and read from cover to cover in one sitting. So that has to be my favourite and then The Stand, but I find all of his recent stuff not that interesting or keeps my interest.

I also liked the Shining as it was different to the film but didn’t think that much or Dr Sleep.

On a side note,

There was a list i read of film adaptations, made from his own books, that Stephen King actually liked.

-It was a very short list.

Ones that were on there tended to be dramas, like the shawshank redemption, stand by me, more than his horror stories.

Yes. All the good films come from his novella collections (Green Mile excepted) and Four Past Midnight / Different Seasons are my fave books of his (Green Mile excepted).

Did I mention I like The Green Mile? Did anyone else read it in serialised form, a chapter a month for 6 months eagerly awaiting the next episode like a Dickens fan in the 19th century?

I haven't read anything by him in a long time so this is an older one. Salem's Lot.

The Green Mile made me cry - wasn’t expecting that

I think Cell is the only book of his that I’ve though ‘Jesus, this was a contract filler’
