Pet Cemetary is not schlock!

It’s one of the best explorations of grief and loss I’ve ever read.
And it’s brilliantly written.

Salem’s Lot is superb.
I was impressed by It and The Sttand as a kid but not so much as an adult.

The short stories are fantastic.

I was about fourteen when I read pet semetary and I’ve never re-read it, which is unusual for me. It’s not cause it was rubbish, more that it deeply disturbed me and made me feel quite uncomfortable, which I suppose means it’s an excellent horror novel
