Addy | 1944 comments For Stephen King junkies like myself, I thought I would set up this challenge because I need to read more of his books. I have so many that are just sitting on my shelf and even some that I randomly started. Here is a link to get you started. Well, it'll be up in the next post. Feel free to challenge yourself. We can even do buddy reads, plus I'm sure these books may even come in handy to complete other challenges:) have fun!

message 9: by Jason (new)

Jason Parent | 17 comments I just finished Revival and have pledged to finish The Waste Lands... hmm... I will add Mr. Mercedes, re-read The Shining, and follow-up with Dr. Sleep. And if I can fit one more... Full Dark, No Stars.

Actually, I do re-reads quicker, so... no Waste Lands, then Shining.

RachelvlehcaR (charminggirl) | 299 comments I've decided I am going to read his works in chronological order. I think this will be interesting to see his evolution in writing.
