    Every book report in high school where I could choose the author was a Stephen King novel and I turned out fine. And in Florida too. Class of 1991. 😁. BRD.

      Back in the ‘80’s I had a high school English teacher that had us read his Night Shift short stories. The entire class loved it.

        • Welp, then according to their plan, you didn’t turn out fine, you’re the problem. Good for you though, I’m hoping your state turns it around quickly because I really want to live there. It’s beautiful and I love the weather there, I just can’t deal with the bullshit they’re doing.

            It’s not cheap. I left in 2005 because the insurance cost kept doubling every year despite never having a claim and I was 30 miles inland. And the deductibles would increase too. t’s worse now. Just do your homework first.

      I read The Stand and It before high school, and lots of other mature books with “inappropriate” material. It resulted in improved reading skills.
