Interesting fact about Misery: King wrote it as a pseudo-response to readers who didn't like Eyes of the Dragon; he actually received a few death threats over it. It was his first completely non-horror story, which he wrote so his daughter, Naomi, who was very young at the time, would be able to read something he wrote. He basically wrote it with the idea of an "artist's worst nightmare" in mind, and placed himself in a hypothetical situation where he met one of these "crazed fans."
nice list! Man I love Duma Key. I haven't read King in a long time and every now and then feel like I should revisit his work. Love seeing your passion for these books!
I agree with you about Needful Things and Desperation, but I just couldn't get into Bill Hodges. I stopped after the first one. Just didn't feel like King to me.
I know I’m sure a couple of years from now this list may look very different! Thanks for watching, Jake! I knew some of my picks weren’t in your top 10…hahaha. Everyone’s King list is different though and that’s what’s so great about him!
Our tastes in King works align pretty well! My own top 10: 1 - The Stand 2 - IT 3 - Pet Semetary 4 - The Shining 5 - Wizard and Glass 6 - Needful Things 7 - The Wastelands 8 - 11/22/63 9 - The Outsider 10 - The Long Walk Honorable mentions: - Cujo - Doctor Sleep - Mr. Mercedes - Christine As far as Salems Lot goes, I read it later on in life, and didn't get out of it what I had wanted. It was good, but I feel like I need to re-read it again, maybe this Oct. Same with Duma Key (Awesome edition you got, btw). I enjoyed the first half, but kind of started to lose interest towards the end. I got that one also slated for a re-read.
Great top10! It certainly does seem like we align nicely which makes me excited to read some books on your list I haven’t gotten to yet. I need to get to the The Outsider, Needful Things, and The Long Walk definitely. Also, I plan on beginning the Hodges Trilogy very soon!
Great list, Colin! Reminds me that there’s still some King classics (like Misery and Pet Sematary) that I have to get to this year! It brings me joy to see 11/22/63, The Stand, and The Shining so high on your list. All of these would certainly be in my top 5 King as well. You need to check out Revival! It’s incredible!
Revival is absolutely on my shortlist! I’ve heard so many King fans speaking highly about revival. I hope you enjoy Misery and PS! I’ll be interested to see how much this lite changes if I make it again in a couple years or so. Thanks so much for watching, Pat!
Glad to see you enjoyed Duma Key! Drawing of the Three is my fav Dark Tower book! Salem's Lot is pretty good, but not one of my favorites. Misery is my 2nd favorite King book! I do think Pet Sematary is good, but oevrrated. Wizard and Glass is great! The Stand is super overrated IMO...i know, I know lol 11/22/63, good, but again, overrated. IT is great, fantastic characters The Shining is great
The stand is insanely overrated. King himself said he had no idea where to go with it. Salems lot I think established a lot of tropes we are used to seeing today, but i thought it was pretty bad. It would just jump around to different people in the town we didn’t care about.
I like how you analyze! Just like u mentioned,I loved Wizard and Glass just to know about Roland’s backstory, and also like you, “11//22//63” will always be special to my heart Currently about to finish “Wolfs of the Calla” Thanks for this video!
Thanks for watching, and sorry it took so long to get back to you! I have been on a bit of a technology hiatus while in summer semester. I appreciate your kind words and am glad you found my channel. Are you enjoying WOTC?
Oh I enjoyed it! Finished and loved the whole DT series in fact, but man Susan Delgado’s love to Roland affected me so much emotionally: her last words on the Charyou tree, the bird and bear and hare and fish phrase. Put me to tears! Left “wind through the keyhole” and “sisters of eurolia” aside on purpose so I could come back to Roland’s life; also ofc I’m gonna reread the whole series again cuz that ending was smart. Makes u wanna reread it and find some easter eggs. The Stand, omg dude , the friendship between Tom Cullen and Nick, priceless. When Tom sees him in his dream. Just so much good memories from this novel too. What do u think: if I loved The Stand mainly because of the characters, will I also love “IT” based on that?
I’ve read the Dark Tower series and 5-10 other ones (too lazy to count right now) Wizard and Glass is my favorite Dark Tower book and Salems Lot is my favorite non Dark Tower. Salems Lot really blew my expectations away.
Nice list ! All are very good picks. A personal theory: King is such a good writer that, literally, any number of 25 odd books could easily land in anyone's top 10. My (current) pondering of a Top 10 would be... 10 - Under the Dome 9 - 11/22/63 8 - The Green Mile 7 - The Dead Zone 6 - The Talisman 5 - The Long Walk 4 - The Drawing of the Three 3 - The Wastelands 2 - Wizard and Glass 1 - Salems Lot
I agree with you! So if your list, I still have yet to read Under the Dome, The Dead Zone, and The Long Walk. You’ve got me even more excited to read them now! Thanks so much for watching, Peter!
my current in rough order 1. The Green Mile 2. The Stand 3. It 4. Different Seasons 5.Salem's Lot 6. Bag of Bones 7. Pet Semetary 8. The Dead Zone 9. Full Dark No stars 10.Hearts in Atlantis
@@KevinsKontentKorner you’ve got a bunch on here that I still need to get to. That’s extremely exciting for me! I’m most anticipating Different Seasons and The Green Mile.
I own a ton of King books I haven’t read yet, I just collect them as I see them! I try and read King more towards fall, don’t know why that’s just how my mind works haha.
Nice list! I've just read my first King book and I chose The Institute, can't say I liked it very much. Where would it rank for you in the 20+ you've read?
The Institute did not wow me. I thought it was okay, not horrible. It would be towards the lower end of my ranking I’d say. Hopefully you don’t judge all of his books based on The Institute, in my opinion it is not a great representation of all of his works! Do you plan on trying another King book?
Hard to disagree with your list as you’re still on your King journey-but I can say that I enjoyed your breakdown and vibing with your choices. Happy reading-looking forward to the next video 🙌🏼
I have so much of my journey left for King and that is what excites me the most! Still have some of his heavy hitters left as well that are some fan favorites. Thanks so much for watching!
I absolutely adore DRAWING OF THE THREE! I just did a video about the most underrated King books, and that was on there because I feel like it doesn't get anywhere close to the amount of attention it deserves. Peak King, for sure.
Yes!!! I had so much fun with that book and can’t wait until I do a reread of the DT. Thanks for watching and interacting with the channel! It means a lot!
I am super late to the party on this video but I loved hearing about your top 10 King's! I used to be a constant reader but kind of fell of the band wagon in recent years. Duma Key is pretty high on my KING TBR as well. Heck yes for Dark Tower love
@@ColinsCornerYT sure have, obsessively, I loved a majority of the series with Wizard and Glass being one of my favorite books ever. I’ve had a quarter sleeve tattoo drawn up based on the series 😅 I’m due a re-read one of these years.
12:30 I agree to an extent. It was terrifying for the reasons that you said, However I personally was more scared for a character in a book in 11/22/63 when Frank Dunning was trying to kill his family. I feel like it was partially because that was something that could actually happen in real life, and Jack trying to kill his family was mostly due to the Overlook being haunted which just made it a bit less realistic
The Dunning family history was definitely horrifying and terrible. And I agree certainly could happen. Just something about the setting I did it for me in The Shining! Do you have a favorite?
Bill Hodges trilogy was soooooooooo EVERYTHING. Listen to your mama and get Mr Mercedes at the top of that TBR! He is a National Treasure. The ones I love I get the audio and listen to it as well. I am committing to reading IT and the Stand this year.
I’ve never done the audiobook from the stand, but a friend of mine says it’s great! I have done the audiobook for it and love it. I promise I will read Bill Hodges soon, especially because his new book coming out in September is about Holly!
@@DaveShaves44 Ok! Great to know. I haven’t watched the show for the Outsiders yet anyways so I’ll be going into all Hodges/Holly related content blind which is exciting.
@@ColinsCornerYT it’s not typical king but it’s still fantastic! More crime thriller detective. The entire Hodges trilogy is great and I loved the outsider too. Cannot wait for holly later this year
I agree King’s horror books are a great and popular entry point for his works, but I think that he writes excellent non-horror books as well and not a lot of people know that!
I agree! But I also love the diversity of the Tower series. It seems like everybody’s ranking of the series is different which is really cool! Thanks for watching, James!
@@ColinsCornerYT of the many series I've read, no other series do I see the books ranked so vastly different depending on who you ask. I've seen every book being listed as someone's favorite, even wind through the keyhole, as well as every book listed as someone's least favorite.
@@JamesI88 that’s very true. And I had the luxury of being able to binge it and not having to wait as they were being published so I feel as through if I was waiting maybe I would’ve had different experiences with each book as well.
I'm almost done reading IT. I'm on page 1000, and I'll have to say, I have had such a hard time getting through this book. I blew through The Stand and Under The Dome, but this book hasn't gripped me like those did.
That’s okay! The more I read the more I realize that not only is it okay for everyone to have different tastes, but it’s a beautiful thing. We’re all approaching books with completely different life experiences which means different things will resonate with each of us. I also enjoyed The Stand a lot, but haven’t read Under The Dome quite yet. I will though! Thanks for interacting with the channel, Jason!
Someone is a huge Dark Tower fanboy, eh? Wizard and Glass over Misery and Pet Semetary is a huge stretch. I do agree that The Shining is #1, I read that book in 3 days, couldn’t put it down.
Just my subjective opinion, and I’ve still got so much more to read which is really exciting! I’m glad you enjoyed The Shining as much as I did. What are some of your other favorites?
Here's my top ten 1. Dolores Claiborne 2. Billy summers 3. Wizard and glass 4. The stand 5. Rose madder 6. The wastelands 7. Insomnia 8. The dead zone 9. The long walk 10. Needful things
Sorry for not promptly responding, holidays have been very busy! Wow, I love your list! This is one of the most unique lists I’ve seen. Huge W&G fan myself, and I really enjoyed Insomnia as well. You’ve got some on here I’m very excited to get to, such as The Long Walk, Needful Things, and Dolores Claiborne. Hope you’re enjoying everything you’ve been reading in 2023, SK or otherwise! Happy new year!
Just read Misery this summer and I really can't get why so many people love this book... for me it is one of his weakest that I've read so far (read 30+)
That’s okay if it didn’t work as well for you! Luckily, with King, we have tons of flavors for everybody. Thanks for stopping by the channel and interacting!
@@margaritaramos3393 but that's not all 😂 I reeeeeaaaaaly don't like Revival 😂 Though I grew up reading King, when I read his books now they look kinda stuck in the moment and quite a few aged rather bad... still, they were great when I was a kid so salute to (the) King 😄
You guys are really undermining kings work by putting It and shining on top Doctor sleep is a great book its better than it and shining in my opinion IT and shining both dint make into my king top 10
I still have over half of his library to read, so I’m excited I still have so much more great content ahead of me. Thank you for watching and stopping by the channel!
That’s the beautiful thing about us having an author with such a wide variety of books to read! Sorry Duma Key didn’t work well for you, what’re some of your favorite King books?
@@ColinsCornerYT I realized I spell Duma wrong. lol. I'm a fan of most of his books. Salem's Lot, Bag of Bones, Hearts in Atlantis are just three of my favorites
It’s okay I realized what you meant! I need to read all of Hearts in Atlantis, I’ve only read parts of it. And I just had a friend telling me about Bag of Bones today! That’s another one I need to get to!

Thanks, Amanda! I appreciate you watching! Duma Key is such a hidden gem it needs more praise!
Just to get you to experience different King I’d recommend Needful Things, Desperation, Bill Hodges trilogy
Good thing I already own them all! I’m excited for Needful Things. Been saving Desperation for when I’m feeling like getting weird haha.
Needful things is the best book ❤
@@Chilling498 I have been hearing this a lot lately!
I agree with you about Needful Things and Desperation, but I just couldn't get into Bill Hodges. I stopped after the first one. Just didn't feel like King to me.

It’s okay I realized what you meant! I need to read all of Hearts in Atlantis, I’ve only read parts of it. And I just had a friend telling me about Bag of Bones today! That’s another one I need to get to!
