I have been wanting to read this book for ages!
Looking forward to reading this again!
Ok, gonna use this as my excuse to finally get to this one!
Need to re-read this one at some point, its been a while. Currently busy with my very first read of IT actually (took me long enough!)
I haven't read the longer version yet, I picked up a used copy at Goodwill a couple of months ago so no time like the present.
Enjoy the ride! I love how he develops each character and we get to follow them before the illness and afterwards. How their behavior changes throughout the book. I've read The Stand a few times. The last time I listened to the audio version. I read fast so I increased the playback speed. It was done well.
its amazing how SK had managed to create a post-apocalyptic story that keeps you hooked without involving zombies or other monsters
Anyone happen to know how you can find a copy of the original version of the stand?

After you do, for fun, sort by highest price first.
I got my 1st print HC when it came out. I made it through the 1990 version once. That's enough for me. No more. I've read the original 4 times. It's a masterpiece.
I have never read this so I am in! Cool to read such a large book with you all. 😆
I read the larger and re edited version and I absolutely love it! It is such a wild ride and I hope to read the original.
