I loved The Stand and Carrie, I’ve read others but don’t remember them! Nothing too long or heavy

    So many people here loved the stand, so I guess I’ll give the dissenting opinion that it was boring as fuck. There are huge swaths of that novel where nothing is happening.

    His novels are very hit or miss for me, but he shines as a short story author. Even still there are 10+ of his pre-2000 books (I basically stopped reading him after the 90s) I’d recommend before the stand.
