My fave is Duma Key, but also re-read The Dead Zone often. Both are riffs on the old (and false) idea of disabled people getting some kind of extra ability, but of course King takes that and twists it marvelously.

11/22/63. I put off reading this one for years as I didn’t think I would enjoy it based on the premise. I kept seeing recommendations for it and I’m so glad I gave it a shot! Definitely one of my favourite King books for sure.

I’m for 11/22/63 or the Stand. Probably in dead heat. I enjoyed both for different reasons.

I’ve only read 3 (loved them all), but The Long Walk was my favorite of the trio. Simple concept that sounds like it was made up by a teenage boy; but King does a great job of fleshing it out and making it really engaging

Thinner. The first one I ever read and holds a special place for me.
The Green Mile was great but the movie was very, very close to the book so you’re not missing much by watching the movie (except for the really sad part)
