Matthew (funkygman007) | 199 comments The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes - it wasn't my favorite book, but the subject matter is right up King's alley!

David (nusandman) | 14 comments I know it's not fiction, but a pretty creepy and engaging read nonetheless is Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson by Jeff Guinn.

Bruce | 26 comments The Ring Trilogy by Koji Suzuki. He's been referred to as the Japanese Stephen King, and it would be interesting to see what the man himself thinks of the comparison.

Samantha How about Chuck Wendig's Blackbirds. It gritty and rough like King's books, but would be considered a short story in comparison to The Stand or some of the others. I liked it.
