Sneaked this from my mom's bookshelf in my early teens, which probably made it more scary 😅 #stephenking17 #scaredme

Josie The ones you had to sneak were always the scariest! 8y

Revival: A Novel | Stephen King

Day 4: #scaredme. So I hadn't been really scared by any of his new books in recent years. And this one came along and I honestly wasn't looooving it. It was just ok for me until I got to that ending. Boy, that ending scared the bejeezus out of me. Had nightmares about it and everything (which hadn't happened maybe since I read It as a teenager). Very good scary ending, Mr King. You still have it in you. #stephenking17

Josie I loved this one! I've never seen this cover. It's gorgeous. I must have it. 8y
Sweettartlaura Completely agree - I couldn't shake the fright of this one for days😱 8y

#stephenking17 Day 4 Since I used IT yesterday and I don't want to repeat myself already, I'm going to step away from King (but stay in the family 😉) for this one. I loved NOS4A2. Charlie Manx is probably scary to me in a similar way to Pennywise. #scaredme #scaredyou

Josie Manx gave me nightmares. I loved this book and I am on the hunt for a hard copy. 8y
Bookzombie @Josie Me too! Of course, I read this right before bed a lot. Not so smart of me. 8y
Gayan I have a First Edition and I plan on leaving it to @Josie 8y

Gayan @Josie Of course. You are the only one who can appreciate it the way it deserves. 8y

The end of this book #scaredme terribly, and I can't even really explain why. But it was terrifying! #stephenking17

Gayan It was a different kind of scare than we are use to from King. 8y
Celeste57 @Gayan It was indeed. And it was such a slow burn with the creepiness factor. 8y
Josie UGH THIS ONE. I have a for real love/hate relationship with this one. The whole thing depressed me BUT WAS SO GOOD. 8y

Celeste57 @Josie This was the first novel of his I read all the way through, and I had that same love/hate relationship. 😉 8y
Josie @Celeste57 that's what I love about his stuff. It makes you so angry, but you have to appreciate it at the same time. 8y
TrishB Certainly made you think! 8y

Misery | Stephen King

I'm so sorry I was not around today to comment on all your amazing #stephenking17 posts. I was partaking in bridesmaid duties all day. You guys had amazing #scaredme posts today, so here's mine! Misery scared me because, at it's core, it's a story about a reader and her devotion to a character. We can all relate to that. As for the other depravities that fill this book, I sincerely hope that you do not relate to that. ALSO: that cover! WTF

BibliophileMomma Omg. That face. That may give me nightmares 🙈🙈😱😱 8y
Gayan I have never seen this cover! 8y
drokka I think that's a picture of me when someone talks to me before I have my morning shower. 😉 8y

Josie @Tiffness83 hahaha I'm so sorry! I hope it doesn't, I'll send you well sleep wishes ✨ 8y
Josie @Gayan I found it last year while googling "ugly book covers" ?? 8y
TrishB That cover certainly wouldn't sell the book...... 8y
Bookladylinda I loved this one so much and felt like the cover was a miss for me. I usually love his covers, this one - not so much! 😟😟😟😟 8y

Well after this latest reread I can definitely say that The Shining is my #alltimefavorite King novel. Everything about this novel was perfection to me. The relationship and dynamics between Jack, Wendy and Danny were so complex. This also #scaredme! Legit nightmares. #stephenking17

TheWordJar This is the only book that ever made me sleep with the lights on. And I loved it!! 8y
ohyeahthatgirl Have you read Doctor Sleep yet? I loved The Shining so much that it didn't have a fair chance at being half as good. 8y
Ashley_Nicoletto I still check behind my shower curtain every time I'm in the bathroom and it's been years. 8y

Betty @Ashley_Nicoletto those who saw the movie Psycho still check the shower curtain too 8y
TheNextBook @TheWordJar I've had nightmares every time I've read this! I try to mentally prepare myself 😂 8y
TheNextBook @ohyeahthatgirl I liked Doctor Sleep but it's a completely different animal. Less horror, more creepy thriller. I was so interested in Danny and his story that I became immediately invested. It was not at all what I expected but I really enjoyed it. 8y
TheNextBook @Ashley_Nicoletto I'll never look at hedge animals the same! 8y
TheNextBook @Betty yeah, don't get me started on Psycho! 😳 8y
TrishB Great cover! I really liked Dr Sleep too as I was so happy to read Danny again! 8y
TheNextBook @TrishB I was interested to see Danny again and I was really interested in the others and their psychin abilities. I'm always here for a new interesting bad guy. 8y
TrishB The bad guys are always the really interesting ones!! 8y
