I recommend Salem's Lot, Thinner, The Tommyknockers, The Dead Zone, a book of short stories: Night Shift, but Misery will scare the pants off you!. It is so scary and yet is psychologically adept and tells us a little something about what writers go through with fans and what the writing process is about!. I have always tried to keep up with the latest in horror fiction; I just have to say that nobody comes close to King for satisfying fiction!. Not everything of his is great but his best stuff has humanity while not sacrificing rubbing your face in horror!. When you're through with King you'll be ready for other good stuff, but King is a great jumping-off place for modern fiction!. You might try Scott Smith also: A Simple Plan and The Ruins!. Very scary!. Great reading!!Www@QuestionHome@Com Ok, definetly read Twilight! It is a thriller romance about a girl named Bella who falls in love with a vampire named Edward!
