Hmmm… Interesting. I’d also tend to say that I don’t have ONE favourite book. When it comes to King’s IT, it was my first step into the world of Stephen King. I remember that one of our weekly magazines here printed it, one chapter weekly, and I was fascinated. From then on I read everything from King that I could get. But the book from him that I remember most was The Stand. I spent hours and days reading it, from the moment I got home from school til the moment I had to go to bed, and Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Big Love’ was on a continuous loop on my headphones, so the book and the song will stay linked in my head forever. And ‘Big Love’ is still on my eternal playlist, so from time to time it remembers me of that book.
Must I mention that the film and tv versions where underwhelming? To say the least. The only good King films are Shawshank Redemption (ha!) and The Green Mile. And yes, I did not mention The Shining on purpose. The book is worlds better.
