@richard-latimer I will have to try those as that is one I never read.

Tommyknockers and IT were great but the endings just didnt match up to the story. Langoliers (sp) was pretty good too.

I used to love Mr King too. Fabulous ideas and story building, just didnt know how to end anything lol

Dark Tower series amazing. Such a shame they fucked up the adaptation.

I loved the Stranger, wasn't sure at first.

I've started reading The Midnight Library which is pretty good, basically it's a story about a library between life and death where you can pull out some books and make some changes to see how your choices turned out or how different ones would have turned out.

Sounds interesting. I very rarely have the patience or enthusiasm to read anymore haha! Used to love reading Stephen King.

@ryan-carruthers power is awful, truly truly awful.

It’s basically a porno. You know how game of thrones started with loads of sex and nudity but then towards the end the storyline took over because it had a meaningful plot? Power just doesn’t stop, any storyline gets lost in the utterly pointless sex scenes. By series 4 it’s just like ‘yeah we get it, people shag we don’t need to see it every 5 minutes. There’s at least 2 sex scenes in every episode.

It gets very boring, very quickly.

I'm gonna watch this!!
