I have a feeling this will be the winner in this bracket. Not going out on a limb here, either One of my favorites of all of King's books.
I agree, LOVED this book.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
Yet somebody gave it a 1... tsk...
I loved this book...it was among the first of King's books I read, and it enthralled me completely.
To each his own and all...Yet somebody gave it a 1... tsk...
but, really!
A 'didn't like it' vote for this book?
I'm flabbergasted!
One of the great King novels. Of course, I loved it.

i voted "it was good". i think i'm a little confused on this voting thing. can we vote "i loved it" for more than one book in a category?
This was my first King book. I thought it was good enough to make me a King fan, but after rereading it several times, I'm sticking with my current assessment.
"People, especially children, aren't measured by their IQ. What's important about them is whether they're good or bad, and these children are bad." ~ Alan Bernard
"You needn't die happy when your day comes, but you must die satisfied, for you have lived your life from beginning to end and ka is always served." ~ Roland Deschain
Oh man, alot of people love it. I read it a few months ago and also love it. Maybe even in the top 10.
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe
Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity. - H.P. Lovecraft
Gave it a 4.
If we didn't have The Lot in this same bracket it might have been a 5 - but for me Salems Lot should win this section!
I gave it a 4 also. There's nothing in this bracket that's merited a 5 for me though.
Remember, folks, you're rating each book on its own merit. Don't judge it right now against any other book.
Good point pablo.
Had to go with I loved it for this one. It'd probably fall within my top 10 King books easily.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I found this book to be just so-so. It surprised me that I did not like it more.
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
I loved it. This is one of my most favorites of Stephen King.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

i really loved this book too.
Another 4 on this one, I give you a hint the books I'm going to give a 5 aren't up yet!
The answer is within
all matter is energy, all energy is GOD
alinda, you're giving each of these books a ranking based on only their own merit, not how they stack up against any other one. That will come later.
That's true, pablo, but I think she was just saying that the books that she "loves" havent been listed yet. I have given few 5s also, because most of the ones that I loved come later in the voting.

Oh I see. Sorry, alinda. I too have rated a few of the ones already up as 5, and there are plenty more coming up later that I know I'll rate that high.
Am I the only one thinking there are some awesome books in the first ones King has written ? I gave quite a few 5s already ! I'll be less generous later, though.
