(I think I'm going to try and rank them riiight at the end, but I can probably do a halfway-ish one for you :) ) In the meantime, I picked out my top ten like last August, which is still faiiirly representative of how I feel (although I'd probably bump one of the last 2 for Misery...) ...

But not really at all, other than that the books are all set in the same place, and things from them come up in books that come after them, but not really in any relevant way, just in a 'aren't I clever, I'm referencing things that actual townspeople would totally remember' to which *I* go yes. Yes you are.<br /><br />When I say best since Misery, this is not to say that this is anything like Misery, if you know what I mean? Like, since Misery I think I've basically had books where he was drunk/high the WHOLE time he wrote them and so they're not the best. I definitely don't think you need to have read the other Castle Rock books first (although I guess it's a good idea to read The Dark Half beforehand cause the Sheriff is in it and he's sort of awesome, but it's not like *that* great) and this is probably my favourite of all of them, other than The Body (Stand By Me).<br /><br />That was a really long thing! So, I say go for it!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-62521166117666562532012-07-27T16:36:44.045+01:002012-07-27T16:36:44.045+01:00Cujo was (kinda) part of a series?

Cos best since Misery is piquing my interesting because Misery is prob my favorite King book. (Keeping in mind I only read a short story that's kind of part of the Dark Tower series but probably not really)Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456600806188531803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-49489961269596472352012-07-27T13:31:43.002+01:002012-07-27T13:31:43.002+01:00Great Review!Great Review!Bad Catholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11987121652866343848noreply@blogger.com
