Hi everyone, OP here. Thanks for the continuing replies. I've added them all to my reading list.

My fiancé and I just finished 11/22/63, and wow, that was good. We had also read Gary Shteyngart's Super Sad True Love Story (also told in first POV, from the POVs of a few different people), right before the Stephen King, and since Shteyngart's book was more of that deep, literary fiction stuff, we decided to go with King for a more casual book-reading experience. (Of course, 11/22/63 is over 700 pages long, so it was a different kind of beast entirely, but oh, well. It was still good. Lol.)

So yeah, thanks again for all the suggestions! I'll continue to throw a few more on here from time to time as well, as the Shteyngart, and perhaps Chuck Palahniuk's Invisible Monsters.

Happy reading!
