Pchan 5,162 Report post Posted October 3, 2006 Aight, this one's a pure recommendation thread for all of you out there on Stephen King's books. I've been meaning and wanting to start reading for quite some time now, and I feel like I can, having just finished re-reading 3 texts on Physics and Chemistry (because of my interest in science) Visited the mall yesterday and had a chance to pick up SK's works, but lay hesitant for some reason - there were so many titles ! And I'm dead sure it's not his whole list of releases. Anyway, here're some pictures I took from my cellphone; http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/Chhoga/Image003-2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/Chhoga/Image004-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/Chhoga/Image005-2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v284/Chhoga/Image006.jpg I needed proper guidance only because each book WILL cost me a bomb and if I was reading them, why not start properly ne. Lady's gonna kill me heh cos I've asked her before too X'D but atleast now I'll remember *nurses bleeding nose from Lady's double-kick to his face* Quote I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

aqu 1,844 Report post Posted October 3, 2006 Don't read cell.... its not very good \ I started with the dark tower series, but that was a bad idea. You should read The Stand first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess Tasha 559 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 The Stand was good. I personally loved Christine and Misery. Actually...all of them are good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 If you can find It or The Tailsman they're great firsts. from the pics go w/ Bag of Bones as it is the most complete novel in the set. Quote Look at the flowers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ladywriter 7,783 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 Rage was in The Bachmen Books, but Steve-o wont let that story be printed anymore. Check the copies to see if its in there. My favorite short by King. Quote Look at the flowers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pchan 5,162 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 I picked up Bag Of Bones because it's a juicy 700+ pages and I leave for my cottage in the mountains tomorrow morning, will be back only next Saturday. Hopefully ... naah for sure, I'll finish it Quote I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.
