"The Shining" was the scariest book that I've ever read. Now I listen
to Books on Tape and on Cassettes as I quilt or craft.

Pet Cemetery was the scariest for me. It's the only one of his books that I had to sleep with the lights on. :lol:

I got my copy last week. The darn thing is over 1,000 pages and weighs 3 lbs.! But I was hooked before I finished reading the 1st 50 pages.... :D :D

I just got an email on it this morning. It sure looked good. I'll have to wait and get it used. :?

I bought it on monday and finished reading it on wednesday. I don't think it's one of his best works but it's still good. I was a little irritated when it turned out to be ... oh wait, that would be telling!

I love Stephen King's books. I am reading The Stand now. I know it has been around for quite some time but I never got around to reading it. Loved the mini series.

"IT" always gave me the creeps.
