Stephen King himself says Pet Sematary is his most disturbing book. It’s good. I just finished The Shining and I loved it. The Kubrick movie takes some liberties with the story, so I treat the book and the movie as two different stories.
I feel like The Shining or Pet Sematary are both great introductions to Stephen King. Also, if you enjoy short story collections, Night Shift is wonderful. 😊😊
My first Stephen King book was the summer before 8th grade. We were at Girl Scout Camp and everybody was giggling over a book called Stephen King's IT (there is cursing and private parts, and we were all naive). I read that 1100+ sucker in three days, under the covers with a flashlight, while eating, you get the picture. It remains my favorite, and you NEED to read it at some point! However, for October, I would go with Pet Semetary. It spooked me out more than the Shining or IT.
@@alexandraroselyn EEEE!!! I can't wait to hear what you think of it!! I just finished The Year of the Witching and Horrid this week and they are PERFECT for this month if you get a chance!! Can't wait for the readathon weekend!! Have a FANTABULOUS week, girlie!!
My brother had me watching the movie when I was 7. I still face away from the shower head when I shower and have never looked at fortune cookies the same. 🤣
Pet Sematary is scary in how it addresses hard emotional topics, but I didn’t find myself super spooked by it (still think it’s an amazing book). The Shining is my favorite King book and I started with that too, other than that I’d recommend Misery!
Dracula is my passion, the first famous one, yet The Vampyre started it, I guess. Frankenstein is perfect for any given time. City of Ghosts is so amazing, I have just finished it and adored it.
I have a very ambitious TBR also. I'm reading some horror romance, vampire books, thrillers, and ghost books. And my yearly rereads of Dracula and Frankenstein
Dracula is one of my favorite books. He was actually inspired by the novel Camilla which is the real first vampire book but most don't know about it because it didn't get as much hype. It's fantastic, saphic, and spooky. I highly suggest the audio book
🤣 the curtain scare... You conjured up something lol... true crime scares the hell outta me too... I'm also reading Frankenstein... i started it & would really like to finish it
I’m starting booktok because if you 🤣 you’re love and excitement for literature is so infectious and it makes me so happy and I just want to be putting even 2% of those enthusiastic vibes into the world. Love you so much!
Awwww! I read Small Spaces to my 7-year-old cousin before bed (to prepare her for Halloween and all that) and she LOVES it.. :)) Good book, it even spooked me a few times😅
When I started reading King I was in high School and my first book was Misery. I’ve read quite a few of his books but not even close to all of them. There have been one I loved and ones I haven’t. I definitely suggest Misery, Dolores Claiborne, Rose Madder, The Green Mile, and The Outsider....those were some of my absolute favorites.
When the curtain moved 😂🤣🤣.....that’s exactly how I felt reading “The Night Gardener” the remote dropped on the floor and it freaked me out..😂😂 OH!!!!! After reading “The Graveyard Book” and giving it 5 stars 🌟 on goodreads..I planned on reading “Neverwhere” by Neil Gaiman....that will be my second Neil Gaiman book....hope I love it as much as “The Graveyard Book”.. LOVE That MUG ☕️ Lexi🥰
You my favourite Booktuber so far as we seems to have same taste in books .. I really really enjoy your videos..your contents,your animation and theme outfit ... Mostly all your books recommendations is on my purchase list... I love the way you introduce your books sequences and intro about the books... ❤😘👻👽🧛♀️ Ps...YOU VERY PRETTY AND CANDID.
I actually plan to read Dracula too soon, but only after I read Carmilla. Carmilla is actually the vampire story that inspired Dracula and has a woman vampire at the centre of the story, which I don't see often with vampire books not that I've read many. I am basically going to read it when it arrives because I really feel like a book like this at the moment. Also, I don't really read Stephen King, but I personally had started with Carrie. I really liked this because (none of the films I've seen has done the book any justice) it was done in a mix media format through interviews and documentaries about this event that was very impossible, and alongside it you also get Carrie's perspective. And it was just handled in this really interesting way that made the book give a lasting impression. If I do read more books of his, which is a pretty big if, I would probably go for either The Shining (because I was very unimpressed with the film and think it will be better as a book) or Pet Semetery (because I hear it is about grief and I like books about grief).
This is an EPIC tbr! Not sure how far you've gotten with Stephen King BUT, I'm actually doing a Stephen King 24 hour readathon next weekend (23rd & 24th Oct) if you fancy joining! And The Shining was the first Stephen King I read and I loved it - super chilling and spooky - it's now my second favourite King (after Misery)!
I love that edition of The raven boys, I‘ve never seen it before!!! I have a very ambitious TBR too, they're all very chunky books. But October if my favorite month of the year so it deserves a super TBR!
I'd love to see a vlog of you reading and watching The Shining! It's one of my favourite King books. Would also love to see a Frankenstein reading vlog!
My mom was a huge Stephen King fan and when I was a teenager she wanted me to love his books as much as she did. I had thought it would be too scary at the time, so she had me 'dip my toes in the water' as it were with Firestarter and then Carrie. I truly enjoyed them but was still put off by the possibility of being traumatized, so I didn't pick his books up again until recently and I am loving them. I recommend beginning with Firestarter (mom was right- and it is one of my favorite books of all time) or even 11/22/63 if you want to try his works but aren't looking to be frightened/disturbed.
Can verify moving to Maine is worth it in the fall (and every other season!). We would love to have you!! Also I say start with The Shining, it’s my favorite Stephen King. Better to read it in fall than during a snow storm for sure so it doesn’t feel TOO real :)
Randomly found your channel an have been loving the October video's . Making me feel more in the spirit with each one.. My Favorite SK Book is needful things If U enjoy Thrifting or an antique type stores I'm sure U will appreciate it. I Look forward 2 seeing more of you an hearing your recommendations. Hope your having an amazing evening :)
Hey! This is my first video with you. My first Stephan King book was Misery, when I was in high school. I read it in one day! I do think Pet Sematary is the scariest piece. Thank you for your great video! 💙💙
I have read It when I was younger and scattered throughout my life how short stories. I decided to pick up Pet Sematary and although it is scary... it is very good. By the way I loved this video and I loved the fact that you didn’t have the bell/ding sound effect in this video... the one that most people include for the like button. My dog has anxiety... her triggers seem to be that bell/ring/ping sound and elevator dings. Huge thumbs up from me and my pup
My tentative TBR is Wayward Witch by Zoraida Cordova, Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson, Mad Ship by Robin Hobb, The Midnight Library by Matt Haig, Skyhunter by Marie Liu, The Left-Handed Booksellers of London by Garth Nix, The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult, The Breath of A Whale by Leigh Calvez and The Journeys of Trees by Zach St. George. I'm a mood reader so this list is likely to change and there's many other books I want to hopefully get to in October as well. Best of luck with your TBR possibilities!
Misery was my first Stephen King, but it's more atmospheric for winter. Pet Semetary remains my favorite because it was more psychological about how we process loss, grief, and what we would do to overcome it. If you like audiobooks, Michael C. Hall (Dexter) narrated it and he did an incredible job.
Cute mug! I read The Shining when it first came out and enjoyed it, although I don't usually do scary. You have a great list there to choose from - have fun!
Im so excited for some spooky/ creepy books this month. Just got today the puffin clothbound Dracula and it’s such a gorgeous cover and the danger gang. I’m so excited for them both
Yes start with the shining! then watch the movie, it was a neat experience. Stephen King wrote a second book too called Doctor Sleep. Takes place many years after the events in The Shining when the little boy Is all grown up
I’ve never seen the shining either or read any Stephen king... but I’m in a big spooky mood now after watching hereditary a couple days ago. I was surprised how much I enjoyed that movie.
I'm so happy it's spooky season I bought many new books and I can't wait to read them ♥️ Also,I would like to recommend you one of the first vampire stories ever written "Carmilla" ..I read it recently and really liked it 🕯️🖤
I have read most of King's works. In my opinion you could really start anywhere. The Shining is an excellent read. I would just give the caveat that the movie and the book are somewhat different. Kubrick took liberties. We all know that about movies though. I would suggest if you read The shining that you read the sequel Doctor Sleep. It is quite excellent as well. I have several of your choices on my TBR this month as well. I do hope you do a vlog for The Shining.
The Shining is a good place to start. Dolores Claiborne and Misery are my personal favorites, but they’re a lot different from his other works. I just started reading Horrid. I love the writing so far. I would also love to live in New England, especially during fall. Frankenstein is my favorite classic. Enjoy!
I just finished Magnificent Monsters of Cedar Street and it was SO GOOD! Can’t wait to get it for my nephew for Christmas! It’s cozy, it’s funny, and it has the “found family” trope that I LOVE! I think any kid that is into Harry Potter (or more specifically Fantastic Beasts) would probably be into this one, too
I just finished reading the pet semetary and I had nightmares for 3 days after. I couldn’t get a certain character out of my head because of the way they’re described. 😩I also have not seen the shining. I want to read the book first before watching the movie.
As someone who as read A LOT of Stephen King and who finally got to 'The Shining' this year, I 100% recommend it. It's the best thing he's ever written, in my humble opinion.
The shining is what I started with for Stephen King and it was awesome. I've since devoured many of his books. Pet Cemetery has a lot of tough subjects which made it really emmotionally horrifying. Still a good book though.
You need to read Séance Tea Party! It’s a middle grade graphic novel and the art is amazing! It’s definitely an atmospheric and cozy read. It also has some ghosts in it
I’m a big fan of Riley Sager. I read Home Before Dark when it first came out and liked it (although not as much as The Last Time I Lied, which is my favorite by him). His books are perfect for this time of year!
if you want stephen king you should read either firestarter or the institute, neither of them very scary but still good if you want something stephen king
My favourite of Stephen King is Cujo, I read it more than once and its sooo scary, literally one of my favourite books of all time. Shining is great too, and Carrie and Pet cemetery, Stephen King an amazing story teller 🙂
I am actually going to read the Shinning because I love the movie! It does mess with your head a bit. But as far as scary film adaptations go, I have heard that the book is scarier than the film.
As someone who also gets scared pretty easy, I would start with Misery by Stephen King ! Also, YES This Savage Song is so good ! You'll have to get My Dark Duet afterwards !
I'm so excited to see your spooky content for October/November!! I just finished making my TBR for this month and got to 21 books... Ow. I'm also in grad school, so can't wait to see how this pans out ^^" I have a lot of your middle grade recs and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the Diviners and Truly Devious series!!
I’ve read a couple Stephen King novels and I highly recommend The Shining! It’s so good, I really don’t think you can go wrong starting with that as your first King novel🙌🏼
I just put up my October TBR too. I made a game out of it and excited to see how far in my TBR pile I can get. I’m also excited to see what all you read during the best moth of the year. 😁🎃👻 I can’t wait to see what you think of the spooky books you read for the month. 📚
Loved this video. Have you read Horrorstor by Grady Hendrix? It's kind of a horror/ comedy set in a store that resembles IKEA. I read this last Halloween, it's interesting to say the least but not my favourite.
I’ve always been too nervous to read Stephen King too! And I bought The Body by him like 2 years ago and am finally making it a priority to read this year. But apparently it’s the least scary but we will see! Also I read Pumpkinheads last night and it was so adorable and I love the aesthetic of the artwork and background art!
Stephen King info: I am 85 pages into 'Salem's Lot now and I'm loving it! The Shining is really good, though it may be a little slow for some. I also suggest checking out Night Shift as most people say it's his best short story collection. I really liked The compilation called The Bachman Books which have 4 of his 5 books written under his pen name, just be warned the first one (Rage) while incredibly good is also about a kid that takes his class hostage. Two other really good novellas by him are Apt Pupil and The Body. And you can find them together in Different Seasons. I have not read Pet Sematary yet, so I have no opinion on it. I'd say start where ever you want, but try out all of his different lengths because he shines differently in shorter and longer works.
Stephen king is my favorite Author! Its fine to start with The Shining I actually may pick up Doctor Sleep which is the follow up to The Shining. I also have City of Ghosts & Frankenstein on my TBR. My TBR is insane this month too well over 10,000 pages. 😂 Well back to reading.
I just read This Savage Song in September and I loved it! Such a good book. Also, I can’t wait to read some of these other books you shared. I love your videos!
Home before dark is my favourite book of this year so far. You could never guess the ending ha ha.
I guessed it lol but I agree it was a great book!
I'm so excited!!!
Have you read Lock Every Door? If so, which one would be better to read first?
Stephen King himself says Pet Sematary is his most disturbing book. It’s good. I just finished The Shining and I loved it. The Kubrick movie takes some liberties with the story, so I treat the book and the movie as two different stories.
I know I saw that and THAT'S WHY I'M SCARED TO READ PET SEMATARY!!! And oh okay that's good to know!!!
I feel like The Shining or Pet Sematary are both great introductions to Stephen King. Also, if you enjoy short story collections, Night Shift is wonderful. 😊😊

omg you are wayyyy braver than me I could have never read it as a kid! But okay I'll def pick up a copy of Pet Sematary

@@Megs901 TRUST ME, I understand!! The scene where the gang is looking at the photo album?! BRRRRR!!! 👁👀
Pet Sematary is scary in how it addresses hard emotional topics, but I didn’t find myself super spooked by it (still think it’s an amazing book). The Shining is my favorite King book and I started with that too, other than that I’d recommend Misery!
You will LOVE Pet Sematary! I think that’s way more up your street than the Shining! It’s scary as heck but in a very whimsical way. 🐱
Dracula is my passion, the first famous one, yet The Vampyre started it, I guess.
Frankenstein is perfect for any given time.
City of Ghosts is so amazing, I have just finished it and adored it.
Have I ever mentioned that I LOVE how you tag the genres each book falls under? Because I LOVE IT
The long walk is a good Stephen king book to start with because it’s not very scary but you get a feel for his writing😊
I have a very ambitious TBR also. I'm reading some horror romance, vampire books, thrillers, and ghost books. And my yearly rereads of Dracula and Frankenstein
Salem’s Lot is a great Stephen King novel for this time of year. A great vampire read too!
Dracula is one of my favorite books. He was actually inspired by the novel Camilla which is the real first vampire book but most don't know about it because it didn't get as much hype. It's fantastic, saphic, and spooky. I highly suggest the audio book
Wow I love all of your purchases, I need to save my pennies because I want I day just like this. Yellowface has been one of my favorites this summer 🦖
These Violent Delights sounds fantastic!
🤣 the curtain scare... You conjured up something lol... true crime scares the hell outta me too... I'm also reading Frankenstein... i started it & would really like to finish it
I’m starting booktok because if you 🤣 you’re love and excitement for literature is so infectious and it makes me so happy and I just want to be putting even 2% of those enthusiastic vibes into the world. Love you so much!

After you read Neverwhere, check out the campy old BBC miniseries version of the book.
Thank you, that would definitely be fun to do after I read the book😊...I hope “The Graveyard Book” is made into a movie
I know I freaked out hahaha and thank you!!

Home Before Dark was so good!
One of my favorite Steven King books is misery such a great book
That's called atmosphere when the curtains move on n their own. That's awesome along with your spooky books.
Pet Sematary is fantastic and would 100% recommend starting there! I have yet to read The Shinning so I can't say which is better to read first

Oh and the Lockwood and co series. All about ghosts.
I think starting with The Shining is fine, but the book is literally nothing like the movie. Personally, I prefer the book.
Oh that's good to know!! Thank you :)
My tentative TBR is Wayward Witch by Zoraida Cordova, Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson, Mad Ship by Robin Hobb, The Midnight Library by Matt Haig, Skyhunter by Marie Liu, The Left-Handed Booksellers of London by Garth Nix, The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult, The Breath of A Whale by Leigh Calvez and The Journeys of Trees by Zach St. George.

Starting with the The Shining is fine, but Pet Cemetery is my favorite, along with It. I like his older works better than his more recent ones.
So excited for your thoughts on sooo sooo many of these
home before dark is 100% unputable boom
Loved your spooky makeup!!😁😊
Misery was my first Stephen King, but it's more atmospheric for winter. Pet Semetary remains my favorite because it was more psychological about how we process loss, grief, and what we would do to overcome it. If you like audiobooks, Michael C. Hall (Dexter) narrated it and he did an incredible job.
Cute mug! I read The Shining when it first came out and enjoyed it, although I don't usually do scary. You have a great list there to choose from - have fun!
Im so excited for some spooky/ creepy books this month. Just got today the puffin clothbound Dracula and it’s such a gorgeous cover and the danger gang. I’m so excited for them both
I absolutely love your mug!
That copy of Dracula, I personally love Dracula
I know this is about books, but wow I LOVE your makeup 🖤
Yes start with the shining! then watch the movie, it was a neat experience. Stephen King wrote a second book too called Doctor Sleep. Takes place many years after the events in The Shining when the little boy Is all grown up

The Shining is a good place to start. Dolores Claiborne and Misery are my personal favorites, but they’re a lot different from his other works. I just started reading Horrid. I love the writing so far. I would also love to live in New England, especially during fall. Frankenstein is my favorite classic. Enjoy!
I hope to get Deadly Education soon at my library. Fall is the best time to read. Sept-Dec.
I really went and bought 2 of these books just hearing your description of them. I got Horrid and The Cheerleaders
The Raven Cycle is one of my favorite series of all time.
I just want to read all the spooky books right now, but I made sure to break them up with some lighter reads because I’m a baby 😂
The Raven Boys dust jacket set can bought from Fox and Whit if you like her edition.
I started with IT when I started reading Stephen king,but his very first book is Carrie! I think the shinning is a great book to start with!
I just finished Magnificent Monsters of Cedar Street and it was SO GOOD! Can’t wait to get it for my nephew for Christmas! It’s cozy, it’s funny, and it has the “found family” trope that I LOVE! I think any kid that is into Harry Potter (or more specifically Fantastic Beasts) would probably be into this one, too
I think Geralds game would be perfect for ur taste to start off with .... well misery would be a great one too! (Stephan king)
I just finished reading the pet semetary and I had nightmares for 3 days after. I couldn’t get a certain character out of my head because of the way they’re described. 😩I also have not seen the shining. I want to read the book first before watching the movie.
Good luck with your October tbr hope you do well with it please stay safe love you and your beautiful channel love 💖 John from Australia
Girl when was Scooby Doo chill about ghosts hahahha

Just recently finished These Violent Delights and it’s hands down one of my favorite books ever!
My college also started early so midterms are next week and I just got a GIANT stack of books from the library😳🧙♀️🧛🏻♀️👻
You need to read Séance Tea Party! It’s a middle grade graphic novel and the art is amazing! It’s definitely an atmospheric and cozy read. It also has some ghosts in it
The Shining is good but takes a bit to get into it, I liked it on audio. I didn't think Pet Semetery was scary lol.
I’m a big fan of Riley Sager. I read Home Before Dark when it first came out and liked it (although not as much as The Last Time I Lied, which is my favorite by him). His books are perfect for this time of year!

Oh my goodness, The Deathless Girls is BEAUTIFUL!!!
I love how spooky season became Lexi's Christmas season hahahahaha same girl... saaaaame
everything ab this video is so pretty!!!!! wow!!!

19 books!!!
Loved this video. Have you read Horrorstor by Grady Hendrix? It's kind of a horror/ comedy set in a store that resembles IKEA. I read this last Halloween, it's interesting to say the least but not my favourite.
Love the tbr. And my husband hasn’t seen The Shining yet. I started with It. When I was in 8th grade. I think you can up into King anywhere.
I really enjoyed City of Ghosts! It was light spooky.
I recommend My Sweet Audrina by V.C Andrews :)
I’ve always been too nervous to read Stephen King too! And I bought The Body by him like 2 years ago and am finally making it a priority to read this year. But apparently it’s the least scary but we will see! Also I read Pumpkinheads last night and it was so adorable and I love the aesthetic of the artwork and background art!
Stephen King info: I am 85 pages into 'Salem's Lot now and I'm loving it! The Shining is really good, though it may be a little slow for some. I also suggest checking out Night Shift as most people say it's his best short story collection. I really liked The compilation called The Bachman Books which have 4 of his 5 books written under his pen name, just be warned the first one (Rage) while incredibly good is also about a kid that takes his class hostage. Two other really good novellas by him are Apt Pupil and The Body. And you can find them together in Different Seasons. I have not read Pet Sematary yet, so I have no opinion on it. I'd say start where ever you want, but try out all of his different lengths because he shines differently in shorter and longer works.
Omg!! Your mug! 😱 where did you get it?? I love it😩😩 and I can’t wait to start reading some V.E. Schwab books! I have a few on my wishlist !
I know this is an old video but I highly recommend Salem's Lot by King esp since you like vampire stories.
Stephen king is my favorite Author! Its fine to start with The Shining I actually may pick up Doctor Sleep which is the follow up to The Shining. I also have City of Ghosts & Frankenstein on my TBR.
My TBR is insane this month too well over 10,000 pages. 😂
Well back to reading.
I just read This Savage Song in September and I loved it! Such a good book. Also, I can’t wait to read some of these other books you shared. I love your videos!
