Salem's Lot. When I was about 14, my parents left me at home. All I did was read the book till I was done. I finished right at dusk. My parents didn't come home for hours and hours. I was fine sitting in the house alone in the day time reading... but to have the sun go down and be finished with Salem's Lot and be alone was a little much! Years latter I read it again... it wasn't nearly as bad the 2nd time.
