Stephen King novels I have not yet read
Jul. 23rd, 2015 08:55 pm...brought on by reading Mr Mercedes, which I liked a lot (well, except for one bit, but I will get back to this later).
From a Buick 8 - at least, I don't think so. I've definitely read the first chapter or two but don't think I got further.
Cell - didn't like the concept. Still not wild about it.
Blaze - hmm. This was going to be a Bachman book, I think, and about a kidnapping? I have never seen a copy in the wild. Would give it a go.
Lisey's Story - I have read quite a lot of this, definitely more than half, but I am also pretty definite that I haven't finished it. Wasn't working for me plus multiple house moves.
The Wind Through the Keyhole - bought, haven't read, sits on my bookshelf pointedly (but is by no means alone in this!). My experience with the Dark Tower series divides neatly into two halves - books 1-3 read and re-read obsessively, still love them, books 5-7 gulped down once they were all out and some amazing stuff but also some rather indigestible chunks, and I couldn't tell you what happened in which. Book 4 is a kind of hinge between the two.
Joyland - don't know why I missed this, especially as in my head it's linked with The Colorado Kid, which I rather liked.
Revival - just picked it up recently in a book store and was tempted, but not quite enough - the concept made me want to re-read The Dead Zone.
Finders Keepers - sequel to Mr Mercedes. I am 114th on the library hold list.
