This may sound dumb, but I’ve never read for this man. I’ve always just heard about him on social media but never ventured to read his work. Opinions, please. Should I invest? Feeling like fiction lately. I’ve read so much non-fiction through throughout my life that I think I deserve a couple of fiction books to get busy with for a little while. Thanks in advance

    I like his earlier stuff when I’m in the mood for psychological horror. Carrie, The Shining, Cujo, Pet Sematary, The Green Mile.

    The Dark Tower wasn’t for me. I agree with the other person who thought it was a slog.

    Lisey’s Story is OK. I like the idea of it, but it’s taking me a while to finish it.

    The Mr. Mercedes trilogy is a nice, fluffy read if you like detective stories.
