it is SO nice to read King on the Kindle! no bashed noses from falling asleep with it!

The Stand (what could happen if a flu virus wiped out 96.4% of the world population? Again.......great character and plot development.)

Nightshift (collection of short stories)
"Carrie" was my first King book. read on a cross country road trip (Colorado to Alabama) with my church youth group. completely ruined all highschool dances for me.

"The Stand" read while pregnant in Germany, suffering a horrendous case of the flu, and living in a tiny little farm town in the middle of nowhere. long before the internet, and phone usage was incredibly expensive, I really felt like I had come to the end of the world. of course having gown up in Boulder and reading all of the references to the hometown was pretty freaky.

King is very very good! enjoy! (keep your back to the wall!!!)
