The Last Stephen King Ranking You'll Ever Need

Показать описание
Every time I want to read a King book, I read everyone's ranking lists first. By then, I'm no longer in the mood to read a King book. So I solved that problem by making an epic ranking with all the King books and all the King lists, and now I never have to look up a list again!

📝 Here is the link to the google spreadsheet with the data/ranking:

Stephen King's memoir "On Writing" is a must read for writers. Isn't it ironic that one of the greatest horror writers almost died in a grewsome way? Also, the fact that arguably the greatest writer of our time almost die before this book was complete gives it more of a reason to read it as he does talk about the experience briefly in the book.

If you loved The Green Mile movie, you do yourself a disservice by not reading the amazing book. I read it as it was written and released, one part every six weeks and each "chapter" available at places like Target and the grocery store. It was wonderful to read it that way...and then to read it again in its entirety. I really hope you read it. You will hear the actors as you do. I bet you'll agree that they were perfectly cast.

It and 11/22/63 are my top 2 I’ve read all his books. He has so many incredible books but those two are absolute perfection imo. I read them every Oct and Nov

I’ve never finished a Stephen King book (I have a habit of flitting between books and I put down 11/22/63 and forgot to pick it backup) but now I know where to try again. I just found your videos and they are so good, high quality production, interesting and fun. Looking forward to the next one.

Also another fact, king also has said that misery is also a metaphor for his cocaine addiction.

What a nice surprise to see Duma Key in the Top 10! I personally loved it, but I didn't know so many other people loved it as much as I did. Of course, I was also thrilled to see 11/22/63 near the top, but I wasn't as surprised about that one. Thanks for working so hard to come up with a comprehensive list!

Good job, and thanks for the spreadsheet. Having browsed many rankings I am not surprised about Duma Key, but I am shocked Salem's Lot (many #1s) is lower than the similar Needful Things.

This list comes handy because I recently decided to read and re-read King's books. As a teen a started reading his works but stopped because I found the endings of his (back than) "newer" books "The Dark Half", "The Tommyknockers" and "Needul Things" as well as "The Stand" (back then the "short" version) after reading hundreds of pages disappointing. But re-reading "It" and reading "'Salem's Lot" the first time got me hooked again.

I have to say Salem's Lot and The Stand (uncut edition) are my two favorite King novels. I have many other King novels stories lovingly stored in my heart for the experience they gave me reading them over the years. I love how layered King's stories are. 🙂❤📚

I remember when 11/22/63 came out that I felt it was his best work in years. I find it interesting to see that it is so high in the overall list which shows that it wasn't just me that liked it. I've read (just about) everything by king and next up for me is 'Holly'.

Love the list and the formula you used to produce it. Would love a copy of your spreadsheet if you’re willing to share. Did you get around to reading Duma Key? I just listened to it for the second time a few days ago. Funny, terrifying, gutting. Really can’t go wrong.

The Stand is probably one of my favourite books oat and I was baffled when it showed up at #5… but after reading some opinions I can see why the latter half would kinda put people off.

Still, it holds a place for me

Thinner I thought would finish higher, although the ending blew. Terrific list [and METHOD!]. The Shining, Misery and It are definitely on my To-Read list. Thanks DTB!
