Books to read while high.
Iv'e found that I can read any book stoned. But some books in particular leap out when you are you high. I suggest:
The Wheel of Time Series
The Dark Tower Series
I read both of those over and over again when I am stoned. Anyone else have any suggestions on books to read while high? Or any online books to read high with links?wayoftheleaf Reviewed by wayoftheleaf on . Books to read while high. Iv'e found that I can read any book stoned.

Trust me, look into any book by Charles Bukowski. The man was a drunk, a gambler, a womanizier, a disgruntled mail-man etc.(not that I'm advocating these things). But it does make for some great reading !!! Do a google search on him

dark tower was good, but if y ou have read man yother epics you might not have such a fond opinion of it. lets get several things straight. also, if you havent read the books stop reading this post now. either i dont want to spoil it for you or if you dont want to read the books you are wasting your time. first of all, the last three(post getting hit by car) books were where the flaws really began. although i will say i liked five quite a lot and seven up until the cop out bad ending. 1. the callah speak thing got really old. it was fine in five, but carrying it through another 1500 pages was overkill. this leads me to the broader problem with the last three. he wrote them all three as one big book then split them up. consequently if y ou ask me he only really wrote 2 last books split them into three. book 6 was nothing more than a bridge, an awful book if read by itself(and believe me i wouldnt say that about any of the other books). really i just didnt like how obvious it was that all three of the last books were written at the same time. in most epics this wouldnt be a complaint of mine as of course it is one long story, but the thing about all the other dark tower books was they had an avg of something like 7-8 years between them, so the writing was different in all but the story remained in line and strong. writing the last three all at once killed that. 2. king should not have written himself into the book. spin it how you want, it was a stupid mistake. 3. there was way too much build up to the crimson king for how anticlimactic and stupid the final battle was. he was a lunatic sitting on a balcony with harry potter quidditch weapons? king i expect better from you. 4. if you were going to make the second ending so bad and pointless, you shouldnt have made it at all. im sorry but having it be a cycle was utter crap. i personally didnt see a big problem with the just ending it with him walking up to the tower. at least there i could interpret what i wanted for an ending rather than just not get one at all..
however, the series was great overall, although personally as epics go i think song of ice and fire by george rr martin kills it, though the first not so good book of that series has finally happened.
the thing i love about the dark tower is how it connects to all his other books. my other problem with the newer ones is these connections began to get WAY too deliberate and that made them less special to me.
here is the order of best to worst dark tower books

Oh dude the Dark Tower series has changed the way I think a lot. It is by far stephen kings best work.
I smoke a blunt to take the pain out and if i wasn\'t high I\'d probably blow my brains out.
