Title: Cell - Stephen King
Post by: ahluka on June 28, 2007, 09:34:26 AM
Read this a few months ago. Only remembering it now because I forgot I had planned to read more of his work - luckily my parents quite literally have a whole wall 80% filled with his books.

Anyone recommend what I should read next?

Oh where to begin?  Desperation was pretty good... Dream Catcher was decent.  I'm drawing a blank on the other books I've read of his, but I'm looking forward to reading more of them.  I pretty much ask for several of his books for every Christmas/birthday.  I hope to build my own collection of them.

Read the Dark Tower series and the Stand.

I've read pretty much all of his books minus a couple of the newer ones so if you've got questions about specific ones fire away

Personal favorites are It, the Stand, and Desparation.  I really like the first few books of the Dark Tower series, but stopped liking it from Wizard & Glass on.

Thinner is quite good, pretty short and sweet.  Hearts in Atlantis, not a horror book, but it's easily one of my top ten favourite books of any author.  The Stand, I don't know, I couldn't get into it.  Haven't read much of the Dark Tower, but what I have read is good.

Dark Tower starts out great gets kind of crappy and ends like a POS.

I liked Shawshank and Green Mile.

I read The Stand once, which was very probably once too often.

Well I've started on the Dark Tower series, enjoying it so far :)

These are easily my favorite of his books.

The Cell was decent, but if I remember correctly the ending was rather weird.
