Stephen King/Richard Bachman Perpetual Challenge

Thursday, January 14, 2010

The object of this perpetual challenge is to read EVERY SINGLE book by Stephen King or his pseudonym, Richard Bachman. A complete list can be found here. If you have trouble finding the limited edition books, that's okay.

ALSO: If you don't want to, you don't have to re-read the books you have already read.

ALSO ALSO: If you want to watch all the movies, too, go ahead. I won't stop you.

ALSO ALSO ALSO: Go ahead and review all of the books, too, if you want!

There are no time limits.
