"Carrie" is the first Stephen King book I ever read. It was an entertaining read, if not gory, and I related to a lot of the story because I was in high school at the time. Generally, though, horror genre is something I avoid rather than seek out. Years later, my husband and I saw the movie "The Green Mile." Again, entertaining, but I could have done without the green guts and killing.
The next Stephen King book I read is "On Writing" because I figured a guy who can write as many books as he has, and had the kind of success he has, would know a thing or two about how to write. "On Writing" is the best book I've ever read about the writing process. Reading it was like sitting down with Stephen King himself. The book is funny, poignant, honest and endearing. Thanks for a great read.
