13 Things You Should Never Say To A Stephen King Fan
13. 'Do You Have A Favourite Stephen King Book?'
No you dont. Because they're all equally amazing. And so much happens in every one. And there are so many feelings. And so many intriguing characters. How can you possibly explain how brilliantly written The Shining is? Or how many times you gasped during your reading of Under The Dome? Or how you yelled out loud when The Kid finally lost that fight to the wolves in The Stand? Or how joyful it is to know your favourite author is pretty much guaranteed to bring out at least one new book every year? SO MANY BOOKS, NOT ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY. You couldnt possibly choose just one to be your favourite. That would be like a parent choosing their favourite child.
I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
