From what I see on here the two that come to mind are The Talisman and Wizard & Glass. People seem to absolutely love them or hate them. I haven't read The Talisman yet, I'm reading W&G atm and it's set to be my first 1 star King book. Yet I know for many it's not only their favourite Dark Tower book but one of their favourite King books overall. And I also see a lot of people like me struggle to get through it.

What other books seem to have this marmite love it or hate it amongst the community?

EDIT: This isn't a What's your unpopular opinion question, what do you think is over or underated. It's what books seem to either be a 50/50 on if it will be in someone's top 5 or bottom 5.

For example I personally think It is overrated and waay too long. But It isn't divisive as it's on 90% of people top 5 books

Chloe Petts - 32

Isy Suttie - 48

Richard Ayoade - 49

Nina Conti - 52

Matt Lucas - 52

4 of the 5 contestants are a very similar age. Just 4 years between them. I feel like we usually get a broader range of ages. But maybe there's a other series which was like this too.

I want to eat more of these, cheap, healthy, tasty.

But outside of lentil curries, and mexican style bean things, how do you incorporate these into your diet more?

I haven't actually read that many SK books (about 13, 2 of those being novellas published separately) and haven't done any re-reads yet, but there's already a few I want to re-read for various reason at some point. But I of course want to keep experiencing new SK too. So what have you re-read the most? How many times? What keeps you going back?

Ones I intend to re-read are:

Pet Sematary - is my fav book of all time so I definitely want to re-read

Misery - also up there in my top 5 books so deffo want to re-read that too.

Carrie - it was the first SK book I read and I remember loving it, but can't actually remember the details much. And it's a nice short re-read

The Shining - mostly because I actually didn't like it as much as I thought I would, and as others seem to, so sorry of want to re-read it to see if I prefer it on a second read (not that I disliked it by any means)

The Mist - similar to Carrie, I remember enjoying it but not the details, and it's nice and short which I like so can read it over a weekend

The Stand - I just really enjoyed it. But it's so long and so many characters that there's probably so much stuff I just skimmed over and would like at some point to go back through it. Probably not for a few years just cos it's such a big read!

Just this. I would love him on Taskmaster. Maybe more likely a NYT, but I think he'd fit in great for a full series. We have a few contestants who aren't necessarily comedians or comedy writers but fit in well (Osman, Levine, Ritchie, Parkinson etc.) so wouldn't seem out of place.

I just think he's so naturally funny and always a good sport at getting the piss taken out of him too. He always cracks me up and the other panelists on shows like 8 Out of 10 Cats (regular and countdown) and his Off Menu episode is hilarious. I implore you to listen to it if you haven't.

Can't believe Alex never introduced him as that
