most underrated stephen king books

[@ethanmichael17]

Definitely loved the background! Maybe consider coming back to it for Stephen King reviews! Also I'm really glad you spoke about Doctor Sleep only being a sequel because it follows the adult Danny. I stopped about halfway through. I just lost steam. I'll go back to it one day, maybe it just wasn't the right time for me to read it. I really didn't view it as a sequel though, so I completely agree with you there. I'm just starting The Outsider then I'm going to read a couple different authors and go back to King. Good stuff as always!

[@brianjankowski63]

Yh I agree with you on thinner. I have read the reviews about it and they weren’t good but I loved it.

[@andrewissodone]

I was watching this while my friend was here yesterday and I literally said ‘he has to mention needful things’ and you did! I AM SO GLAD SOMEONE APPRECIATES THAT BOOK AS MUCH AS I DO

[@otherworldsthanthese]

It’s a great book!

[@MaxReads]

I think King's most underrated one, which is also my absolute favourite is Lisey's Story. Such an amazing book and I hardly hear anybody talk about it. That story gives me chills every time.

[@alech6495]

Agree

[@dawsonboughner2039]

just rank every book youve read by him thats like entertaining

[@otherworldsthanthese]

I want to make that video once I’ve read maybe 50 of his books, I’ve read about 40 so far 👍

[@dawsonboughner2039]

otherworldsthanthese yessssss

Could you do a review of Insomnia from 1994? I didn't enjoy it but was wondering what you thought about it.

[@otherworldsthanthese]

I haven’t read Insomnia yet, because I’ve heard bad things about it. I’ll probably read it sometime this year.

[@jonesy4728]

@@otherworldsthanthese Its sort of a prequel to the Dark Tower series so you may like it

[@hagenmacy1652]

If you haven't already, I'd totally recommend reading Dolores Claiborne! I think it's my favorite King. It's also the "sister novel" to Gerald's Game because it happens during the same eclipse and deals with similar themes. Also, King talks about boogers a lot in it. Just thought I'd include that.

[@otherworldsthanthese]

I own Dolores Claiborne, and trust me when I say that I’m planning on reading it very soon!

[@DrVVVinK]

Have you seen the movie Gerald's Game? By Mike Flanagan, who also did the Doctor Sleep film. Chilling. Great adaptation.

[@otherworldsthanthese]

Josh Gordon I’ve seen both of those movies, and I’ve read both of the books

[@angelaholmes8888]

I really enjoyed the long walk it's definitely one of my favorite books from king along with needful things just recently read it I'm watching the extended version of the movie

[@defiantsisko]

I thoroughly enjoyed Thinner, Doctor Sleep, The Long Walk, and Needful Things. Thinner as actually my first experience reading King and Needful Things following shortly thereafter. I don’t think a fair amount of people would’ve liked Doctor Sleep not matter what it was about because how can The Shining be topped. Sad to say because I think a group of vampires going around the country killing and then moving on to somewhere else is terrifying.

[@alech6495]

I've just descover your channel love it 😍

[@otherworldsthanthese]

Thank you!

[@krisnakayana1798]

I LOVE Thinner and Elevation!!! Will definitely check the other ones.

[@chrisbronico3667]

I loved The Institute. It’s my number five favorite. So good. I don’t know if it’s underrated though. Even on good reads it has a very good rating and reviews. I also absolutely love Needful Things . it’s my number four favorite King book. Excellent book. Thank you for sharing.

[@otherworldsthanthese]

People tend to enjoy The Institute more often than not, but I find that not many people give it the attention it deserves

[@lonesomedovecall822]

Hiya Harry, This was a fun video!!! I've always thought Needful Things was extremely under-rated. I LOVED that book!!! Just brilliant from cover to cover! Gerald's Game, though, not so much. Don't get me wrong, I thought it was good, but definitely not as good as some of King's other stuff. And as for that "most disgusting scene" you mentioned (not wanting to give away any spoilers), I'm guessing it had something to do with a bunch of flies and a pack of wild dogs? If so, I hear you loud and clear! I was totally grossed out by that scene -- but I also thought it was one of the best parts -- CLASSIC King! Have a great day! Valerie.

[@otherworldsthanthese]

LonesomeDoveCall I actually was talking about a different scene, so if anyone is reading these comments, look away because this is a HUGE SPOILER! I was talking about the scene where Jessie removes the handcuffs by slitting her wrist and all of the skin on her hand peels off 😬😬😬

[@lonesomedovecall822]

@@otherworldsthanthese OMG, YES! "I'm peeling my hand like an orange!" Another awesomely gross scene!!! And you're right -- now that I'm thinking about it, that IS a bit grosser than the flies/wild dogs scene I mentioned earlier. Probably because it was self-inflicted.

[@tommymarx391]

I love that you said The Institute isn't his best book and it's certainly not his worst book, because that's exactly how I felt when I read it. I wouldn't call it his best book, but DAMN did I enjoy it and love it.

[@theodorejay1046]

Who doesn't love blood & gore. Probably why I liked Bates Motel series 😁 Bahaha. WTF was that noise at the very end 🤔

[@fletchercalderbank8498]

Wizard and Glass is my all time favorite :))

[@otherworldsthanthese]

Since I made this video I realised that if The Dark Tower series didn’t exist, maybe I would enjoy Wizard and Glass for what it is. It’s not a bad story, I was just bothered by the 900 page break in the journey

[@fletchercalderbank8498]

@@otherworldsthanthese See for me, Wizard and Glass is the kind of story where I would reread that flashback chunk alone, which is actually what I plan on doing next month

[@alynam82]

I think Needful Things at one point, was ranked my favorite book

[@otherworldsthanthese]

It’s really good!

[@noamelgrabli4665]

cool video❤❤❤

[@garyhaines8296]

I am one of the few people that prefer Doctor Sleep to The Shining.
