I was quite keen on this series and it started off on a good note, but i still personally feel that they should have left it at 3 books.

I am currently reading Out of Oz. I am so excited to see how this series ends

Just finished . Loved it! A new to me author, Julia Stuart. Have just started

Currently reading - awesome, love SK's very creepy and colorful storytelling. Also reading , this is not the type of book I would usually read, but it was an off-line book club pick and I am really enjoying it and reading it a lot faster than I thought. And finally, I'm also reading , I am having a little bit of a struggle with this one but I am determined to finish it!

I have a list of Stephen King books I've been meaning to read. Which of his is your favourite?

Starting back on after putting it on hold due to .

Heather, I think this is only my fourth Steven King novel and I am really loving it. So far, I think my favorite is Misery, BUT if you haven't yet, you need to read Everything's Eventual - it is a collection of awesome SK short stories.

I will definitely look into that.

My dad has read ever one of his books which is nuts cause he has more than anyone I can think. But he has a few that I've wanted to read forever. The first one was Desperation and the cover is the reason I first was interested. I always like thrillers or horrors growing up and the cover is really creepy looking.
And the other one I really want to read is The Green Mile. I've seen the movie and it's so good. Plus my dad said that the book is really close to the movie.

Reading The Glass Castle....soo good

I have so much respect for SK as a storyteller - i've seen lots of interviews he's done and he does not claim to be an professional writer, more so than a unique storyteller - I think he is both. His imagination is beyond what most of us can even grasp at! Every book of his I've read I liked!

I agree, without having read any of his book and just seeing a few that were made into movies. I don't know where he comes up with any of it. There were a few that were a little more disturbing than even I could handle, but for the most part just creative.

I agree!! His movie "Pet Semetary" was the first movie I watched as a kid that ever gave me nightmares! As an adult, I want to expose myself to books that make me uncomfortable - that means I am learning something about myself you know? I think that's important as an avid reader, to let yourself be exposed to stuff that we never thought we would. I think you'd enjoy his books!

It is important. I try to read a book from a different genre each time I pick one. I like to mix things up with each book. So if I read a romance the next book might be a crime novel or something. I find I get more into the books that way, more brain stimulation than the same thing over and over. Series make it hard to do that sometimes if I get hooked on them though lol

My Dad has all Stephen King's novels...I can't understand why...He does have a few books that I did enjoy...but for the most part I could do without them

I could see why not everyone would like them. But I think I really would

I read my very first Stephen King books last month. I read The Gunslinger and The Colorado Kid. I did not like either one of them. The Colorado Kid was just...kinda boring and The Gunslinger made me feel all weird inside. Horror is not my genre. (I know most people wouldn't consider The Gunslinger "horror", but it gave me the same feeling a horror book would. It also shows how tame my reading usually is! :)

So...no Stephen King for me. I'm glad I read at least one, though, so now I know.

I'm currently reading "The Betrayal (The Fear Street Saga #1)" by R.L. Stine. Just reading these books from when I was younger.

I used to love his books growing up!

I liked Christopher Pike! I forgot all about him...maybe when I go to the library next I will get one out

I'm currently reading by Courtney Summers. It's surprisingly good; I didn't expect to read it so quickly. It's about a zombie apocalypse if anyone's interested :)

I still can't get myself into these zombie things. Where did they all come from?

I did go see warm bodies when it came out with friends and I didn't find it bad.

Are the zombie books actually good?

Zombies make me laugh...I find them really dumb and unrealistic

I've been reading the Hobbit , it's a classic fantasy novel. I'm loving it so far, I expected it to be something I'd have to think about while I read it but since it was meant for children there isn't much thinking to it, it's just fun! Its still taking me longer than it would to read say a YA contemporary but I'm trying to break out of the YA bubble and I think this is a great way to start. I recommend this book for anyone who wants to start reading some classics outside of a school environment as it is a pretty easy read and for anyone who enjoys extremely surreal fantasy (with hobbits, wizards, dwarves, elves, dragons, you name it)

reading The Good Daughters....Amazing story...waiting for the twist cause it's gonna be huge

Is anyone reading any of the group books?

The Legend series is a really great series! Another great dystopian series is the Shatter Me series! Book two in the Shatter Me series, Unravel Me was amazing!

Im busy reading Fragments by Dan Wells (Partials #2) and Rapunzel Untangled.

I remember reading R.L. Stine Books with my sister and a few friends. On Book #3 The Burning now. About 1/2 way done. Then I'm going to read the book that comes after that. Then it's off to reading some James Patterson books I haven't read yet.

reading The Flight of Gemma Hardy

Fragments is going alot slower than what i hoped.

I am currently reading:

A Clash of Kings
By: George R.R. Martin

I'm reading The Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out Of The Window And Dissapeard. It's quite exciting ad quick moving so far.

Kyle, how are you liking The House of Leaves? It's on my WAT TO READ list and I'm leaning toward it being next.

Glenda

@Natalie, I don't like a lot of Stephen King's books either. But on the other hand, I found 11/23/63 absolutely wonderful and could hardly put it down to sleep or eat. Also, I I liked Under the Dome too.

Glenda

@Heather, I can't get into the zombies either. Just not my cup of tea.

Glenda

I'm reading The Unexpected Husband by Debbie Macomber

Thanks Kyle. I may put that off for a bit. I'm not sure I'm up to "heavy, dark and disturbing". Too much life in my head right now.

It does unsettle me. I have to put it down and do other things to get if off my mind sometimes."

is it a zombie book?

the son of neptune by rick riordan

Fear by Michael Grant :)
