    8. Cell
    7. Cujo
    6. The Shining
    5. The Institute
    4. Doctor Sleep
    3. Carrie
    2. Lisey's Story

This was turned into a movie, which I saw and have wanted to read the book. There are always lots of details missed in the movies, and Iblikecto go an get "the rest of the story".

    Also any time someone has asked me where to start with Stephen King, I usually hand them to Pet Sematary or Salem's Lot. I think they're both approachable in length but representative enough of Stephen King that it's not like sending them to Hearts in Atlantis or something lol.

    My favorite Stephen King book, and my favorite book of all time, is The Stand. I am currently rereading’Salem’s Lot, which I read the first time way back in the 1970’s. It scared me more than any book I have ever read. However, I am currently in the middle of the story, and it’s creepy but it’s not scaring me yet. Maybe I’ve read too many scary books. I recently read Needful Things and would definitely rate that one of King’s best. I’ve never read the Shining, so that’s next on my list. I agree with your top 10, except for It. Really didn’t like that one. Thanks for this list and I’m a new subscriber so keep up the good work!

    I've just started Salem's Lot!!!!! You made me keep on reading Stephen King after starting with The Shining early this year. Now I've already read 11/22/63, Billy Summers and Pet Semetary, and I really enjoy his characters. Unpopular opinion: I didn't really enjoy Pet Semetary that much... Maybe I had my expectations too high, I don't know. We'll see what happens with Salem's Lot (I don't really love terror, but Dracula is one of my super fav books). Hugs from Spain!!!! love Ashlynn's channel too

    I will be continuing The Dark Tower series, especially to get to Wizard and Glass, but will be picking up the books left on this list, that I have not read (which is actually TEN books).
    Thanks for this list. We really enjoy your videos. Talk to you, later.

    Thank you for making this! I'm actually named after one of King's characters and so I feel like I should read more of him. I just bought The Shining on vacation.

    I was a fan when they first came out (yes, I’m old). At the time, The Dark Tower was unobtainable. My first king/straub novel was The Talisman. Now, I own almost everything he’s written and I’m reading them chronologically. I want to discover the thread that binds them. Excellent video!

    I'm very early in my Stephen King journey (I've only read The Body, 11/22/63, Dolores Claiborne, The Dark Tower, The Institute, Low Men in Yellow Coats and It), but It is also my favourite by far. I'm afraid nothing will live up to it. I'm excited to read all the books on your list. There's a shop that I pass on my way to work that's called Needful Things, I wonder if it was named after the book.

    Finally, Roland (😉) into the Dark Tower series!! I made a promise a serious commitment that by the end of 2025, I'll finish all SK books till this date is out. IT took me a very long time, but I was happy to finish that chunker!! 😊

    Fun video to see during October and It is number one. That is one book I am not planning to read because unfortunately the movie has made me scared of clowns when I was little so I will take your word on that one. I have been eyeing on reading Pet Semantary, 11/22/63, or Fairy Tale for my first Stephen King book. Happy reading!

    I haven't read all of Stephen King's books yet, but for now Needflul Things is the first on my top 10 list of all his books ever. I really loved that story.

  • @kaceyheston7880
    @kaceyheston7880 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

    IT is his best ever written, my top 10 would be
    10. PET Cemetary
    9. Salems Lot
    8. From a Buick Eight
    7. The Dark Half
    6. Misery
    5. Duma Key
    4. Bag of Bones
    3. Liseys Story
    2. Dreamcatcher
    1. IT
    Most of Stephen Kings main characters are mentioned in other stories. Its as if they all live in nearby communities and I could drive to this magical KINGdom and meet all of these beautifully cradted characters in person.
    Will always be a die hard Stephen King fan. Even have a tower of Stephen King Books I call "The Dark Tower" lol....have a great day
