I have a new kindle. Yay!

I used to read lots of Stephen King when I was younger (Carrie, Salems Lot, Pet Sematary etc) but haven't read any of his newer stuff (er from 20 yrs or so) so if someone could be so kind and let me know which is a must have, I'd be very grateful.

I've read The Stand and agree, brilliant. I've read Misery.

I'll look at Lisey's story and Cell.

(I was in Tesco's and 11.22.63 was at £7.99 so I bought it. So much for the Kindle!Smile)

Lisey's Story was quite good, but rather "other worldly" so not sure if you like those types of his books or not. I am more a straight horror fan myself.

Misery is excellent, if you haven't read that?

I read Cell recently and that was quite compelling, his Night Shift short story collection was good too.
