My Stephen King Collection| Jes Reads Books 

I DO NOT OWN EVERY BOOK. CHANCES ARE I HAVE SINCE BOUGHT IT SINCE THIS VIDEO WENT UP. IF YOU SEE A BOOK HERE I AM MISSING I EITHER DO NOT WANT TO READ IT OR HAVE BOUGHT IT SINCE THEN. STOP LEAVING ME COMMENTS ABOUT IT, CUJO, OR CARRIE. I OWN ALL THREE NOW. THANK YOU.

You should put Rage in a protective sleeve. That book is extremely rare, and you will probably never see it being reprinted again.

5:22 rage is about 1000 dollars nowdays

This just makes me want to read Stephen King all over again, beautiful collection and great video!!!!

I almost sold my book collection to pay the down payment on my current house, and I cried a lot about it. LUCKILY, my husband and I were blessed enough to have family members who lent us the money, so I didn't have to, but I am so sorry that you had to go through that. Books are my most prized possessions

I agree with you on Duma Key and Bag of Bones! So underrated, and so great.

Just found your channel and love it! 😍 11/23/63 is so far my favorite Stephen King book but I’ve only read 2-3 of his books so far. I’m planning on collecting and reading all of his books eventually

even in that condition, that rage book is worth hundreds easy. great collection. i am just now realizing there is a face in the cover of dr sleep, never noticed that before lol

Hold onto Rage. It's extremely rare!

You have one of the best Stephen King collections I’ve ever seen. I love Stephen King as and am so happy I stumbled on this video and I just subscribed

20 yrs ago i was 15. That's when i started reading King. But...i was living in Europe, not all of them went to print and they're were all translated. 20 yrs later i decided to rebuild my King collection. My goal is to read everything he wrote. Sounds like a fanboy...eh... I'm also crazy about collecting different editions, hardcovers, paperbacks. No mass market. I just ordered 4 halloween editions from UK. Christine, Shining, Cell and Bag of Bones. I started my collection about 3 weeks ago and i have so far 48 books. Just finished reading Cujo, Needful Things, Shining and i'm almost done with the Stand. You're collection it's amazing, that Viking edition of Needful Thing it's gold. Also, beautiful tattoo. Thanks for taking time to show us your collection.

Thank you for actually taking them out and showing us. Not many people do for some reason

I gotta be honest..... I HATED Song of Susannah. I felt like it was just a set up for book 7. There was very little that was actually memorable about the book. Personally my favorite was Wizard and Glass. I felt that it was a fantastic story and amazing characters. I read them one right after another so I can tell why some people hated Wizard and Glass because it didn't advance the story hardly at all. But I loved it

If you love Stephen King you should read Peter Straub ghost story. Amazing and super creepy book. Talisman and black House were amazing books

This is such a cool video! :) It just makes me happy. I don't collect his books but I love seeing people's collections.

You have Rage?!?! It's so hard to find!

Since December of 2017 Ive Read IT, Pet Semetary, Different Seasons and im now a good chuck into the stand. I ve started a collection of my own! Great video! And you have to read pet semetary

*just casually pulls out rage (a $1000 book) and sets other books on top of it* Amazing

Rage just sold for over 700 on ebay. I own it and payed 300 for mine. Don't ever let anything happen to that book. The value keeps going up.

I'm glad you loved Duma Key. One of my all time faves. Joyland is my number one.

My mum loved to read Stephen king books. I do want to read pet cemetery. You have great 📚 books and shelves . X🌹

The Talisman is one of my favorite books. You should give it a read. It gives a really cool perspective of the Dark Tower series.

I’m also a Stephen King lady too, Jes!! I think I’ve got almost the same amount of King books 📚 you do. I’ve been going through a huge reading slump and I’m trying to get out of it. I’ve got tons and tons of books 📚 I can’t wait to read. Thanks so much for your videos. Hopefully I’ll can get back to my reading again. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽📚📚. Robin 🌹

Ha! Five shear telf! I caught that! Love your collection! Love your tattoos! Love your glasses love you smile! 😵😍

First time watching your videos really hook with your videos 😍😍

~That's one of the presents I got for my 30th birthday this year May 4th Stephen King,Owen King Sleeping Beauties book so very happy and excited about it kept saying thank you so much.~

I'm reading The Stand in September for the 40th anniversary of its release. Would love to buddy read it. Haven't read The Stand in like a decade. Love your collection!

I love those candles

The Talisman is really good, don’t let your fear of collaborations stop you reading it, You’ve got some Great books btw 😎👍🏻

I love how you are doing the voice-over audio after you shot the video and you say things like “ahh” once you get the book back in place on the shelf. So funny. You must buy It….

I'm new to your channel so I don't know your thoughts of Lisey's Story or how far you got into it, but I didn't like the beginning of Lisey's Story either. I actually stopped reading it and put it aside for YEARS. Several years ago, I sat down and decided to push through it, just to say that I've read it, and once I got past the first 25% or so, I really got into it and it flew by. It's one of my favorites of his now. It's very emotional. There's the supernatural element that comes in 25%+ that's really an effective foil for the RL protagonist in the book. It's not a 700 page book about a woman getting beaten up until she kills him. The hubby had this whole other world that he went to and he knew this guy would chase her so he left her clues on how to deal with the guy. It's her journey through the grief of losing him and getting to know him fully, as well as this supernatural entity/world, and the protagonist. But the beginning sucks.

My Anne Rice books are like that for me. I have had them since 8th grade. They have been with me longer than my husband.

I'm working through Stephen King and just finished The waste lands Dark Tower 3. I enjoyed it but that ending! I want to jump to the next one now.

Desperation is a good book, you need to read that and then Regulators afterwards

You can find book 6 and 7 of The Dark Tower series in the Wolves of the Calla style paperback on Book Depository. Stay safe Jes! Love you!❤️

I love Stephen King's writing. 😍

Cell was movie adapted. I remember Alice the most from the book. The movie was so so. It's available to watch on Netflix.

Love your collection! Did you know that Stephen King has a new book coming soon. I dont know the name of it though. So excited

You can remove as much of the stickers by hand then use sticky side of tape to remove any leftover sticker. I always do that when I get used books that have them.

Great video. Hope you've gotten around to reading the Talisman. It's a unique collaboration between two of the best horror writers ever and a wonderful experience to read. I don't even know if it qualifies as a horror story though because it's more like a fantastic fairy tale adventure and its worthy sequel Black House is more like a supernatural detective story. Dolores Claiborne is not as creepy as the cover makes it look either though it does deal with some traumatic events.

just casually throwing rage aside as if its not worth 500$ :P

When she said "now I'm done with this 3rd shelf" I was like wow

I read Desperation when I was 19 and I was absolutely hooked. I read The girl who loved Tom Gordon, Carrie, The Shining, Doctor Sleep and 11/22/63 and I liked them all. Then I read the unedited edition of The Stand and I have felt a lot of hesitation when picking up a Stephen King book ever since. It was so bloated, so hard to get through that It put me in a 2-month reading slump and sadly turned out to be so far my least favorite book of all time. It made me completely forget that I really enjoyed his books and it took me a while before I picked another one up. I own a lot of his books as well. I read IT and enjoyed it. I tried to get through the Dark Tower series and got bored. I guess I have a hit or miss relationship with Stephen King books at this point.

Thanks! I like how you’re very picky about your shelf and the book art. Don’t disregard Peter Straub. I’m re-reading ‘The Talisman,’ co authored by SK and PS. It’s an amazing story. You’d never know it’s not just Sai King.

My partner's mom is a huge Stephen King fan and I've been meaning to read more of him for ages now. I want to try my hand at The Stand, It and also something less popular but I'm still not sure where that is going to be yet, so if you have suggestions of where to start,t hat would be amazing.

I really enjoy your video. I too am a massive King fan. And I gotta say: I really feel like you're missing out until you read the Talisman. (I understand your bias against co-authored books, but Peter Straub is a damn fine author, and in my opinion, he's up there with King and Clive Barker). I read the Talisman when I was maybe twelve or so, and it really moved me away. I cried my eyes out at one point. Maybe it was written for twelve-year-olds. Still, it's a great book, and I'd like to recommend it to you as a favor, since you did me the favor of making this vid. Good look to you!

No IT? Just finished IT and read it years ago. Read IT again straight because it was so refreshing to caught up in the book. Needful Things was fantastic too! Awesome you have Rage. Very rare. Great video.

Amazing collection! Are you still interested in buddy reading? I'm thinking of reading a couple of his books in October. Right now I'm trying to figure out if I should wait or not on The Outsider lol the cover is beautiful!

I am LIVING for the "Wendy, darling?" candle. I need to know what all of those smell like. This has literally been staring at me from my recommendeds since I subscribed to you. I read The Dark Half in....like 6th grade? And I vividly remember underlining the part where the dead body was found with his own penis shoved in his mouth. I don't remember the context of that scene. Just that it happened. I need to re-read that. I have that cover of Pet Semetary specifically because the cover is so amazing. Actually, I'm now wondering if I still have it... I don't even know what I have on my shelves anymore. Also, how does the paperback version of Under the Dome look so much smaller than the hardback? Shouldn't it be the other way around??? Dolores Claiborne and Gerald's Game came out back to back, and a friend of my mom's was super into getting me all King books. I think he's the one who gave me my first, which was Carrie (I was WAY TOO YOUNG, but it's fine...) I don't remember how old I was, but it's a REALLY great book. And the movie is similarly fantastic, Cathy Bates does a phenomenal job. Yeah, the audiobook for Sleeping Beauties is 20+ hours. And it's not fast to get through. If I remember correctly, you haven't read it yet, no? Horns book is SO SUPERIOR to the movie my GAWD. My heart breaks a little at the thought of you having to sell your books. But I'm glad you kept your Kings. I lost so many of the ones I had from my adolescence, I think my copies of Rose Madder and The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon are the only ones that survived to come to my house. I don't know if you will even see this comment, but if you EVER want to buddy read Pet Semetary, I am ALL IN. I love that book, and as I have said to you previously, I need more people to understand how FUCKED UP they treated the cat.

I have that same copy of Cell and it is honestly the book that got me started into my Stephen King reading. Just a warning though.. if you haven't seen the movie yet, it absolutely sucks. Anyway, my all time favorite books my him are The Stand and the Dark Tower series. I'm currently on book 5 "Wolves of the Calla".

I have that same cover of misery and lisey's story. My favorite book by him would be bag of bones. I'm loving your channel. My cover of bag of bones has the ghost over the pond. If you want to buddy read It or carrie, let me know

Nice collection, especially those vintage Doubleday editions (I wonder how your collection looks nowadays. ..). btw Peter Straub is an amazing writer. Go check out his work! :-)

What about your crichton books ? I saw "next" in there, and pirates altitude maybe ?

Greetings!!! I have a lot of Stephen King books, I hope I can find an illustrated copy of The Stand, you may know--but just in case---The Outsider will be out in June ---that way you can save up and get the hardcover if you like---keep reading and Enjoy your books!!

I’ve never read a Stephen King book which is ridiculous - he’s my dad’s fav author. I have Bazaar of Bad Dreams. Figured I’d start with his short stories to kind of dip my toes in. I loved scary books growing up so idk why I haven’t read anything by him. I have watched a few of his movies & liked them 😄

😏 so funny I have the floppy version of wolves of the calla as well and I can find no others! whyyyyyyy?? I feel your pain :D what do you think of the compendium? do you recommend it? :)

Amazed you have a copy of Rage!

I’m wondering how you organize your books on you bookshelfs

Update your best books by Mr. King video plz

You need to read Dolores Claiborne! its one of the most heart wrenching amazing books ever

Lol you dug up your dog yeah his books will do that love your collection thou

Its nice that you care so much for the covers but i recommend you get reading all of them. No way could i have had so many unread ones, i was so hungry for the next book and the next book. Personally i prefer the early books.

Omg she's so beautiful.

The Stand do you have any?

It's very interesting you like a lot of books that aren't liked by the majority of King fans. Great collection though :)

11/22/63 my all time favorite non scary book

~I adore Stephen King as one of his fans too.~

I’m surprised you liked the tommyknockers. I haven’t read it yet but I’ve heard the middle part sucks (btw I have the same edition as you)

Julia Sapphire literally just uploaded a stephen king collection yesterday, and like 3 people reviewed Misery this past January. Is 2018 the Year of King or something?

It's so hard to find people who enjoyed Cell!

Rage can go for $900!

I can't believe you have Rage!! Where did you find it?

IT?!

Nice copy of Rage!

IT?!!

RAGE! it Is Quite hard to find, i think you Can only get it in the bachman books (Bachman collection) which I dont even think you can get anymore.

Why don’t you have IT or CUJO?

Loved this.This year I'm working on a personal reading goal of "year of king" in addition to my usual 50 or so books - reading one King book a month to catch up with his work! I would highly recommend The Talisman + the sequel Black House. They tie into the Dark Tower and I personally really enjoyed them. The Talisman is pretty light fantasy, and Black House is very dark horror/fantasy. I'd love to buddy read Pet Sematary if you get to it this year! Here's my short term TBR list including my hopeful King reads: www.goodreads.com/review/list/24590339-kaili?shelf=to-read-next

You like Dreamcatcher? Did not see that coming lol

I’ve never read a Stephen king book......I don’t own one either 😳

I don’t think you realize how insanely rare rage is it is 3000 dollars minimum

$5 for a book? Damn in my country they are $30-$50 and the salary for an everyday person is $300. Wish they were cheaper so I can own more.

Where did you get rage from?!

Why do you not have it. And pretty good video

Nice hair....good video...ur cute...

H O N E S T L Y Nice collection though

How do you not have IT?!? Lol

I talk really fast but you've got me beat. Love hearing your reviews but it's hard to keep up.

Please read cujo if you havent read it already.

Nice collection!! It’s good to see the constant reader support all over RU-vid. Focusing on that point go check out my Stephen King collection on my channel🤟🏽👍🏽

Is that a joke that your allergic to red ink?

WERE IS IT!!!!! Oh nvm😂

Hearts in Atlantis? Lies.
