But it definitely sounds like it will be a great read.
Hi guys! I'm Amanda, 22y, from Brazil. I've just started reading the books this year, but that was enough for me to fall in love with SK. I'm currently reading Salem's Lot. I'm very excited to share this experience with you all! You can feel free to add me, and we will can talk a lot about the Kingverse :)
Hi Amanda and welcome. what are your thoughts on Salems Lot?
Welcome Amanda! What has been your favorite SK novel so far?
Welcome Zack, Jacqueline, Ed, Amy, Hana, Monica, Del, and Amanda!
Hello! I'm Erin. I live in Kentucky. This summer I've been reading a lot of Stephen King. So far this summer I've read The Shining, Night Shift, Everything's Eventual, The Bazaar of Bad Dreams, Full Dark, No Stars, and I'm currently reading Skeleton Crew. A friend and I buddy read Gerald's Game and we're about to buddy read Salem's Lot.
I'm also making my way through the movie adaptations.
Hello Erin are you going to read the Stand this year?
Its on my short list. My sister gave me all her King books and The Stand was one of them.
Cool is it the original or the unabridged version.
Unabridged version republished on it's 20th birthday so to speak. That is how he wanted it in the first place but they made him cut almost 300 pages, saying it wouldn't sell. That's accountants for you.
Mr. King does love to write looong books.
Long only in respects of pages, but as far as stories go it s still to short for me. t being his longest book at 1300 pages was still action packed and gone to quick for me.
I bought Under The Dome but its so huge I'm terrified to read it.

I thought it was a very easy read and eventually one I didn't want to end. That's when I appreciated the length. I liked the Stand but it was more complicated and so it was a little slower going... for me. I think you'll like Under The Dome.
Hello, I’m Mary and I am just now staring to get into King’s work. Glad to be apart of this group (:
Hi there! I am Tamirys and I am completely new to the King's universe( as novels goes). I have only read Salem's lot up to now and it was sort of a slow burn for me, however a most worthy journey in the end . I am Currently finishing up Mr. Mercedes and hopefully starting It tonight! Look forward to the discussions.
Welcome Mary and Tamirys. I hope you guys enjoy the books. "It' is a good choice.
Hey Mary and Tamirys. Glad you're here.
Hi Mary Hi Tamirys welcome to Sai Kings pages. Tamirys reading both Mr. Mercedes and It wow that's some heavy reading. After that try reading the Green Mile. Mary just getting started I envy you, first time with all his books is special. I wish I could do them all over again as a first time read alas that can't be as I have been reading his books for the last 40 odd years.
Hello! My name is Autumn and I'm from Michigan. I dual majored in theatre and criminal justice in college. My day job is in communications but that doesn't stop me from continuing to act and do photography. I'm very new to Goodreads (just signed up yesterday) so I'm still learning my way around. : )

Hey, Autumn welcome. I see you're reading the Halloween Tree. I have quite a personal story related to the writing of that book. I wrote a blog about it, but it may have disappeared. I'll try to repost it. I knew Ray Bradbury when he was writing it, originally as a TV show called "The Pumpkin Tree" because he got angry when they never showed the great pumpkin in the Charlie Brown show, "It's a Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown." If I can post it I'll let you know.

We're finishing Firestarter this month, but some people are behind others are ahead. Some of us who have read them all several times will always chime in when someone posts a new idea on a given book. BTW, chronological order seems like a good way to go.

Many of us have read his works multiple times and are looking for someone else who is new to share thoughts and opinions with. Just because we have read them before doesn't mean we are experts LOL. We love to read his books that's the long and short of it. Welcome and may you enjoy your time here we look forward to your thoughts and opinions.

Hi Autumn and welcome to Stephen Kings pages we value all thoughts and opinions no matter that they might differ from ours, it make for lively conversations.
Hi everyone! My name is Tamara and I am a 27 year old living in Canada who just discovered the wonderful world that goodreads is!
I have been a Stephen King fan since I was first able to read. My Mom had all the books (at that time) and wouldn't let me read them because they were "too scary" so I would sneak into her room at night and grab the books and read them secretly. Then once I read all her books, I graduated to hiding under the bed to watch the movies.
Have been a fan ever since and have my own growing collection
