Stephen King, the World-Acclaimed Author Battled With Alcohol and Drug Addiction for Many Years. King's Story is One of Heart-break, Struggle and Triumph.
No wonder why his books are so bad. If it wasn’t for the screen adaptations I doubt anyone would know who he is. I read dream catcher when it came out and I couldn’t make it through. It was so bad. Like how did this guy get famous bad? It was just so bad.
So, in summary, you tried one book he wrote 30 years after he came to prominence and gave up. IT, The Shining, The Stand, Misery, Dolores Claiborne, Pet Sematery, The Green Mile, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption are fantastic. Some of his Bachman books - The Long Walk, The Running Man, Rage - are also great. You’re simply objectively wrong. Your aunt sounds like she knows a good book, though.

My aunt, who is an idiot, loves him though.
I don’t know how to respond to this.
The guy who made so much creative work that spawned genres. So many movies and TV shows share how King’s work inspired them.
I think it’s fine to say you hate something. But theres so much BS in your comment that a fact checker’s head would explode going line by line.
Also your comment about your family paints more about the kind of person you are.
