I read a ton of Stephen King as a kid and I think my kid will be into it, but I'm not sure which book would be a good entry point. He has so many different types of story from weird to horror to mind bending. What would you use as a good entry for his horror? For an 11 year old.

Update... Thank you so much everyone! This thread is making me want to reread the books myself too 😄

I definitely agree; Sphere was my favorite book in middle school, but it took me a few more years before I got into Stephen King. You can find a lot of Michael Crichton books at thrift stores - it's how I found mine back then, and I still see them pretty often today.

Same here, except haven't really gotten into Stephen King, and my favourite being Andromeda Strain. Sphere was also really good though.
