    The Gunslinger was the first one I read and it complelled me to read 'The drawing of the three', which is the book that hooked me to continue reading the dark tower series and then on to other King books.

    Mine was The Shining. My mother kept trying to make me watch the movie, but it was just so long and ridiculously drawn out I couldn't be patient long enough to finish it. So I decided just to read the book instead, and got hopelessly hooked. Though I believe The Stand was the final determining factor. I read that one second, and it was amazing. It is still my all-time favorite. The chapter where he discusses how the Superflu spread really got to me. It's very difficult to try and imagine how quickly something can spread like that.

    I would say all the ones that I've already read, but the first book that made me continue reading SK's books was Needful Things.

    The book that hooked me was nonfiction actually. It was Danse Macabre. Then I read "IT" and "Pet Semetary" and there was no turning back.

    It would have to be Night Shift.

    I'd say The Green Mile and Dreamcatcher as they were my first two.
    I thought The Green Mile might've been a fluke, but after Dreamcatcher I knew it wasn't.
