Hi All:
New to the forum but certainly not to SK. After reading many of the discussions, I've been thinking about which book I might want to revisit. In the past 2-3 years or so I've re-read: Salem's Lot, It (still my personal favorite), The Shining, and The Stand.
I've always thought about those as the heavy-hitters, but maybe I should go back to one that I wasn't blown away by the first time and see how my perspective has changed. I interpreted The Shining in a much different way reading it over the age of 40 than when I first read it as a teenager. The first one that comes to mind is The Tommyknockers. I wasn't particularly thrilled with it the first time - maybe I'd like it better now. Firestarter is another.
What would you suggest and is there any particular reason for your choice? Thanks!
