I am a constant reader, I'm ranking them with how many times I reread them.My recent self...
Joyland
Dr. Sleep
11-22-63 tied Duma Key
My younger days...
IT
The Dark Tower
Needful Things
The Stand11.22.63
The Long Walk (written by his alt.name Richard Bachman) although there are countless others...a really difficult choice to be made
I think this is such a personal thing. I suspect that everyone will have their own list. The ones that top my list, in no particular order, are:The Green Mile
IT
Under the Dome

I have so many favorites, and they are so because each effected me in a different way.
I have to say my favorite journey was rereading the Dark Tower series with all the other books that tie in to it; a whole lifetime of eluding to the Dark Tower, the beams and ka. If you all are interested in getting an email of the Map to the Dark Tower, send me a private message here with your email address. It outlines quite a ride!
The Dark Series is my all-time favorite at this time in my life.
The Dark Tower Series Collection: The Gunslinger, The Drawing of the Three, The Waste Lands, Wizard and Glass, Wolves of the Calla, Song of Susannah, The Dark Tower, with The Wind Through the Keyhole adding a nice flash back to time with our favorite characters and a new tale.
Earlier years, I have nightmare memories of reading The Shining, The Stand and It, and just devouring anything King and his brethren wrote pertaining to horror and fantasy. Closest I ever came to feeling something stood up well to The Stand, is when I read Swan Song by Robert R. McCammon.
Later on: 11/22/63, The Green Mile: The Complete Serial Novel, The Talisman with a notable author Peter Straub, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption: A Story from Different Seasons from an excellent book of four novellas called Different Seasons, Bag of Bones, The Bill Hodges Trilogy Boxed Set: Mr. Mercedes, Finders Keepers, and End of Watch, with a fourth added to the trilogy which I just finished listening to called The Outsider - the audiobook is awesome!
That's my SHORT LIST! lol
Don't ask a SK fan to choose! It's nigh on impossible!
