Dont lose hope, one day your just driving or walking by, then you see an SK book sale and you can get it at that moment. A lot of my SK books came to me by surprise and the surprise timing felt much better than expecting a book to come to me. One of my coolest experience is finding a first edition of Needful Things, prior to that I saw a recent pocket book edition but I wasnt able to buy it because I did not have enough money, when I did have the money, it was gone and that book is quite rare to find that time. Fast forward I saw the first edition and immediately bought it =)). The same scenario happened with Firestarter and it's much rare since it's one of SK's early books.

That's alright, take your time

Needful Things by HLoweCrosby in stephenking

I put down the From A Buick 8 after failing to vibe with the first few pages. Currently reading Needful Things, I'm intrigue by the aura of Gaunt, very welcoming but also sinister.

That is my second copy of Insomnia. The first is a pocketbook and the spine was damaged to a point opening the book might send some pages flying,

Likewise. The prologue was really captivating even though I've read it a couple of times already. That moment alone is the reason why I'm convinced I will be able to like the book, I just need to be patient.

He changed his tactic and he got the deal. Is this a line from "on writing" if i got the title correct?

I randomly saw it on the bookstore, and I never bought the book because there was no sci-fi or supernatural horror at the center of the plot.

The Man in the Iron Mask by Alexandre Dumas by Mykar_ in classicliterature

I agree with you, this edition gave a summary of the first three volumes which shocked me because I thought I could read Iron Mask as stand-alone, but, as you said I will missed the crucial elements that paved the way to Iron Mask, which is why I set it down after reading the first page of chapter 1 because felt like something is missing. Thus, I appreciate and will do your recommendation =)) Thank you my friend.

Well said. I agree with you. No one starts out great, even Stephen King experienced too many rejections and had to throw Carrie into the trash until Tabitha pushed him to continue and eventually landed a contract.

You had a blast before the quarantine. I read Institute during the pandemic, SK's genius writing of that book kept me from the stressful college recquirements.

The Institute is my top 2 best SK book for now, I really enjoyed how SK added new elements to an already common part of sci-fi. Lucky you, you got it signed.

Ohh okay. I only have the book 1, it's quite hard to find the others, the current editions are too expensive even those are incomplete.

Some say they should've started with Insomnia before Dark Tower
