I tried reading that one too - got maybe 200 pages in - but there's too many ****ing characters in that book, I'd have to take notes to ****ing keep track of them all. The only King novel I ever read completely was Cujo.
If you want recs for King (I don't know if you do, but if you do) Salem's Lot, Pet Sematary, The Green Mile, The Shining, The Dead Zone, Thinner, Christine, Misery.

Personally my best is probably Lord of the Rings (about 1000 pages) but of course if you start counting trilogies/series then it's well over the 2-3,000 mark.
