  • Fairy Tale by Stephen King and Trevor Noah’s book, Born a Crime
  • Fairy Tale and Eye of the Dragon by Stephen King for some somewhat standard fantasy fare with King's style.

Cons

  • Other great King reads are The Shining followed by Doctor Sleep, Mr Mercedes, Misery, and the brilliant Fairy Tale. ... Fairy Tale isn't a great one for anyone who has a hard time with focus as it starts with a 500 page prologue before t...
  • STEPHEN KING Fairy tale, only 1 main character.
  • Parent context: I really enjoyed Fairy Tale. Reply: I didn't like the abrupt ending but I did like the journey.

Some of the best books I've read are: Fairy tale and 11/22/63 by Stephen King - even though it's Stephen King, these are not horror books but some of the best written novels. Fairy tale is fun
