I actually haven't read much Stephen King, but my wife says they're pretty similar. He took the name Joe Hill because he didn't want to rely on his dad's name, but then a bunch of people were like "Does Stephen King have a new pseudonym?", so take that how you will.
Ah okay, probably not for me then. I am going to give Stephen King one last chance. Have one book of his that I am going to read, and then get one of his famous one, probably IT, let's see.
Have you read 11/22/63 by King? It’s not his usual style, but I really enjoyed it.
No, that's in the list of "one of his famous books", not sure if I will read that or something else. Whichever is the thinnest, I guess 😀
I think it’s certainly Thinner (oh look, a pun) than IT, and deviates from his other horror genre.
Heh, thanks for the info. Will check it out!
