Misery is the best for me
I think I’m at over 50. Don’t know the exact amount. The Dark Tower series is stunning.
Will try the Dark Tower Series.
I think around 40, if not more. I try to get a paperback and hardback copy of each that I have, so I have a bunch more to go. Fave is the Dark Tower series.
Just about love all his book. The most scary for me was It and Dr. Sleep which is the sequel to The Shining. If you’re not into creepy~ try his Mr. Mercedes series.
I loved that series I couldn’t put it down
@Daryl do you like weak women who get redemption and strength? If so, try Rose Madder.
I yes I loved that book too I recommend that one a lot the first SK book I read was Cell I really like that one I was 11 when I started reading King he is my all time favorite
@Daryl one of mine too although I had a hard time getting into The Dark Tower series. I went to see the movie this summer~ which I loved. Then, started the series and it didn’t quite match up. I should probably give it another try.
Oh yes most definitely I watched the movie and literally was upset they try to fit 7 novels into 1 movie they’re absolutely amazing you don’t know what your missing but I understand it took me 3 trys starting it before I actually finished them
I suggest not watching the Dark Tower movie. It isn’t about the book series, it’s a different reality/another version of his original idea. If your not into wired stuff 11/22/63, and Under the Dome are great stories. Gerald’ s Game is terrifying for many reasons, and the movie on Netflix does it amazingly!
Oooooh Under the Dome I loved that one too
I have 8 or 9. My favourites are On Writing, The Stand and It.
The Stand and Rosered
I forgot about Rosered…LOVED that one!
I own all of his books on Kindle.
11/22/63. On my top 10 of books read. Brilliant writing and excellent audio. I am not into horror, read Salem’s Lot and did not finish The Shining.
I only have 1, 11/22/63. I’m not a big Stephen King fan.
Im reading that one now & loving it!
@Heather I loved it too! There’s also a mini series on Hulu but I havne’t seen it.
I have around 30 if not more I have a collection of almost 1500 books we are actually on the hunt for a bigger house so I can have my own library ?? I’m a book hoarder
I’m well on my way! I’m up to 500…lol. actually way more if you count all of my grade school books (Sweet Valley High, R.L Stine, ect.) My goal is to have hard copies and soft of all that I can get.
I have a bunch of RL Stine I think 44 is what I counted I loved Fear Street I also got them for free from an online yard sale
My favorite has to be the Dark Tower series my least favorite was Revival (snooze fest) and Bag of Bones but I was 13 when I read Bag of Bones so I probably will give it another try now that I’m older and appreciate his work a lot more
Too many to count. I have the original Green Mile books He released the story in parts
Me too and have it on cassettes found them at a yard sale and I got all excited so the woman let me have them for free ? and I cried ? books make me happy
I also have those Carol I probably have just about every book he write love Stephen King
Oh tons that were my mother in laws. Misery is my favorite from him.
Might add I seen him 2 years ago and have signed book too
Will always love Christine ?? about to read bazaar of bad dreams
That’s an excellent collection.
Can’t do Stephen King way to creepy
You should try reading the Green Mile. It’s an excellent story and not scary at all. It’s not a “typical” Stephen King book.
Dolores Claiborne and 11/22/63 aren’t creepy, nothing like this scary stuff. I felt the same way but I enjoy his non creepy stuff!
Saw the Green Mile, good enough
I only have On Writing. I read The Green Mile… I’m not big into horror. I do want to read 11/22/63.
Excellent novel. Do the audio version if you can.
I have most of his earlier stuff, not as much of the recent publications. I love the Dark Tower series, Desperation and The Regulators the best.
I’ve never read any of The Dark Tower series, but I ?agree on Desperation and The Regulators, awesome books!
I haven’t finished The Dark Tower series yet, but I’m loving it so far. I don’t know how many I own if his, but probably around 10-15. So far, Needful Things is my favorite.
Salem’s Lot is my favorite
The Stand and It are my favorites of his. I thought the character development in both was very good.
I really prefer his short story collections to his novels, which are always hit or miss for me. I really liked 11/22/63, but I don’t think I’ve ever finished any other of his novels.
Misery scared me and I love horror . it’s so realistic that it gave me nightmares
Aside from Desperation and The Regulators, these are my favorites ?
It. I got the book from my kids for xmas. It’s very good!
Different Seasons. Four great short stories. The Dark Tower series. Carrie.
Was talking about The Stand just last night. My favorite.
I love the movie. Is the book better? I am not a big fan but….if the book is good…i just might have to read it. Lol
@Crystal the book was so much better than the movie I can’t even make a comparison. Big books are a commitment but in this case very much worth the read. The best of King in description and plot.
I don’t like most of his work. I did like the one he wrote for his daughter. I don’t remember his name.
all of them
Almost all of them….
Favorites are The Stand and Lisey’s Story.
I thought i was weird because i am not a huge fan. His books freak me out lol i guess that may be the point though? ?
My favorite is the long walk and the story of tom Gordon!
Love The Story of Tom Gordon!! Have you read Blockade Billy? Another Baseball one, and it’s fantastic!
No I haven’t,although most Stephen king books I discovered in my moms library as a child lop
I have almost all of his books. ?. Started reading them when I was eight. Having nightmares almost every night was to be expected.
Different Seasons is his best book. It has 4 novellas, which have mostly been made into movies.
I have well over 40
Faves are Shining Carrie Salems Lot It Night Shift and Dark Tower series
None. I don’t go to any of his movies either. Not at all interested. Too many more enjoyable books to read.
To each their own, but if you’ve never read anything by him, I’d encourage your to try before you dismiss them all. His mastery of language is unmatched, regardless of subject matter.
@JoAnna I have tried a few. Just not my style. I guess that’s why it’s great there are so many different styles. Something for everyone! I did like the movie “The Green Mile” But haven’t found any others that I like.
I have about 35, my favorite is The Stand
I have a whole book shelf full of Stephen king he is my favorite author and I named my son gauge after one of his characters can u guess from what book?
And you share his wife’s name, how cool!
All of them ❤️❤️❤️ My favorite now is 11/22/63. For many years before that, it was The Stand.
Lol..
I have misery and finders keeper but have only read misery.
That’s such a good book.
I just recently found a Stephen King book at a thrift store. The Regulators. Anyone read it yet?
Not one of my favorites.
Awe. Thanks though
Yep. They can’t all be home runs. ?
Favorite Stephen King book is On Writing.
That’s on my wishlist on Thrift Books!!
On Writing is FANTASTIC! I loved The Cell. It hasn’t received the raving reviews as it should. It’s a Stephen King book that starts on page two. No 200 pages of character development or scene setting. You open the book and BAM it starts. But of course my favorite is The Dark Tower. ?
I just finished Dolores Claiborne….very good!
I have three, Pet Sematary one about werewolves I don’t remember the name, and one that I think was made into a movie because the cover has Molly Ringwald and the guy that played Lieutenant Dan on Forrest Gump it’s about a apocalyptic world I think
The Stand
Yes that’s it
Ive read them all . Hard to pick a favorite , Misery , Delores Claiborne, The Stand . His wife Tabitha has also written a few which were very good .
I recently read an article about the first book he ever published that flopped and I would love to get my hands on it I think it’s called glass houses
Have you all ever read any written by his dad because supposedly his dad was a very successful writer as well
11/22/63 is one of my favs
I don’t have many but my favorite is The Dead Zone.
I have all of them. I kinda love him.
I love the “On Writing” book, but I prefer his old stuff, The Talisman, Thinner, the Stand, The Shining, Carrie, etc.
I often recommend On Writing to friends who want to start writing. It is phenomenal.
@JoAnna He’s so down to Earth and no bs. I like him as a person, from what I’ve seen of interviews, etc.
I do, too. ❤️❤️❤️
I own everything
I liked It and Misery a lot. His older stuff is pretty good. Christine, The Shining, and Cujo come to mind.
I have just about all his books but maybe the last 2
I like most of his books I’ve read, but I feel like he goes on and on and on and on way more than necessary. Like “The Dome,” that book could have been about 300 pages shorter. But, that aside I do enjoy the books of his I read
