I voted "Never Read" because I've only read three stories within.

Would you vote anything but "Never Read" on a novel if you'd only read three chapters?

:nope: I'd have found a copy and read it. :D

This contains some of King all-time best short stories. I mean, "Flexible Bullet", "Survivor Type", "Nona", and, of course, "The Mist". One of my personal favorite King books of all time for sure.

I've only read a couple of the stories so I voted never read since I haven't read it cover to cover. I own this book and I should get my act together and finish it.

shame on me!

This is my favorite collection of shorts. The Raft, Survivor Type, The Mist and Grandma were my favorites.

Grandma (Not sure about the title, but I think its close) especially creeped me out. I think that it is the one story in the book that is outright horror

Average. Flexible Bullet is good, though.

Giving it a '3'.
Haven't re-read it in a good few years now.

Five. I love this one, too (I seem to have a lot of 5's in this bracket).

I guess I'm an 80's King fan. :lol:

Yup, like I said in another thread, this is one tough bracket. Some great books will get left behind, sadly. But, c'est la vie...

I feel the same way. I haven't read it, too.

Shame on both of you. :(

Go! read it now. You'll be glad you did.

Again, it was such a long time ago that I read this that I'll need to reread before I can vote.

Some of the scariest stuff I've ever read is in this book....aforementioned Grandma, Nona...Survivor Type *curls in a tiny ball and hides*

"Nona" is my favorite Stephen King short story bar none.

Not great, but very very good.
