I loved The Stand and Carrie, I've read others but don't remember them! Nothing too long or heavy

i like a lot of them, but i remember Desperation really twirling my brain around.

a little more obscure than his other books, and very weird, but i expect it'll make an impression on you.

if i remember, it wasn't too long either.

If you haven't read it check out The Regulators too, it is a sort of tie in book to Desperation.

I liked Desperation quite a bit as well. Definitely one of my favorites from his work.
