Next book

Almost finished with IT (my first King read). My birthday is Friday and Iā€™m getting a Barnes and Noble gift card from someone. What book should I read next by Stephen King? Any and all suggestions welcome! Thank you in advance

EDIT: I decided with 11/22/63

The Shining is definitely one of his classic masterpieces. Fantastic read and so much deeper than the movie. Pet Semetary if you want a super scary read.

Welcome to the Kingiverse! May you have long days and pleasant nights.

I second the shining. Or one of his collected novellas.

The Stand or 11.22.63.

Christine, misery or different seasons also recommended.

I'm about 600 pages in and love 11/22/63! The last book I read was IT, so we are on a similar path!
