I'd have to add Amazing Grace to that list. Whenever I hear it I think about the part where Fran (I think it is) sews the bag around her father. Don't remember if it's in the book, but in the movie...

I loved Gerald's Game as well. I think it's the most horrific book he's written, at least of those I've read and it's not many that I haven't read nowadays. I really disliked the second part of the...
TCK might not be a good choice though to get her interested in Kings work due to the very unusual "ending". It's like waving a carrot in front of the horse's eyes and then not let it eat the carrot....
I think I just got hit by a wall of text. I really can't read that. Would you please use some linebreaks?
If you read the discussion on the article you can see a great number of connection to both tower books and non-tower books that I've collected while reading the book through.
But I also see that...
I think the movie The Signal is rather similar to Cell. I have yet to watch it, but that's what I've heard.
I'm about 100 pages away from finishing The Tommyknockers, and I think it's a really good book so far. I hope the ending doesn't justify all this negativity towards it o.O
Gerald's game is so...
I think this is a non-typical SK book myself due to the language he's using. The first half of the book I was a bit irritated by it, but after that I got a bit more used to it and I think it's an...
In The Tommyknockers, the Arrowhead installation in Maine is referred to as a powerplant. Here's a small extract from a much bigger discussion.
I didn't find this book that brutal or upsetting as I sometimes find Kings work. Take Geralds Game for instance, that's the one book that I think few people have the guts to read straight through...
They are hard to compare. The Stand is a tale of epic proportions in all categories. Cell, while I liked it a lot, is more of a very entertaining and well produced zombie movie (but in book format)....
Even if he visited the world as a boy, which I personally do not believe from what was written, he could not do it as an adult. And even cutting (like some (emos?) do today) leaves scars and marks.

I was wondering, when Scott's father cut himself, how was he able to heal those wounds? Scott healed himself and his brother by going to the pool, but his father never traveled to that side, yet he...
And the horse she rode in on? :onfire:
Anyhow, I think I've gotten my answer. Cheers everyone. It felt a bit too good of a saying to have been originated by King (and be a sort of reference...
Coming from Sweden, perhaps I've missed this connection to the real world or perhaps an old movie or so, but I seem to find the quote "Fuck you and the horse you rode in on" in several of Stephen...
Since I'm an avid World of Warcraft player, I found these a bit funny.
"Handled iron" (I'm a hunter, or should I say Gunslinger? ;))
"Inland horde" (Horde being a faction in world of warcraft)
