Consider the season you're in. Reading 'The Shining' in the winter, 'Salem's Lot' in the fall, or 'Duma Key' in the summer can enhance the atmosphere immensely. King is a master of setting, and syncing your starting book with the weather can make the immersion total. It's a silly little tip, but it works. A snowy day with 'The Shining' is an unforgettable reading experience.

I'm a big mood reader, so I'd say gauge your current appetite. Feeling brave and want a deep, lingering dread? 'Pet Sematary'. Want a fun, page-turning creature feature? 'Cujo' or 'Christine'. In the mood for a heartfelt, character-driven mystery with a touch of the supernatural? 'Joyland'. Match the book to your mood, not to a prescribed 'beginner's list.' King has a book for almost every mood except maybe pure romance.
