    What was your first?

    Christine. Saw the movie, then read the book. When I read the book is when I got hooked. 1984,that was, and I was 16.

    good 1st time read for an 11-year old?

    I think it depends on what he/she would be able to handle. Maybe hold off on the scarier stuff or material that has adult content until a bit older? My first read was Christine at 16. With no ill effects. The 2 that come to mind for an 11 year old would be Eyes of the Dragon and The Girl who...

    How's The Weather?

    It was a bit windy today, but sunny. Last few days it's been in the low 80's here in California.

    RAGE!

    When I realized this, I bought a copy of The Bachman Books so I would have a copy. I first read it when I was in high school, and was enthralled.

    What was your first?

    I liked the movie, but of course, movies are never like the books. I was disappointed with how much information from the book was left out. Now I read first, then see the movie.:biggrin:

    Is The Tommyknockers an enjoyable book? No spoilers at all please

    I started reading it a few times, but lost interest about 50/75 pages into it. It's the only SK book I just couldn't get into. Hopefully one day I'll be able to read it.

    Your Latest Stephen King Related Purchase:

    You're welcome. I believe it's due to the violence as well. Movies put out by US studios are pretty violent.

    I believe so. Region 1 is USA/Canada and Region 2 is Europe. But I think you're right. It's to make more money.

    Your Latest Stephen King Related Purchase:

    There are "Region 1" DVD's that are sold only in the US and Canada and will only play on DVD players sold in North America. There are "Region 2" DVD's that are only sold in other parts of the world. I believe the reason why, and I could be wrong on this, is because there are some movies that ARE...
