I think The Shining is very exciting for a first read if you're a fan or even familiar with the movie. Seeing how it compares is fun and also it's a really good book on its own. I started with Salem's Lot and it got me reading King ever since. I'd recommend that, or if you really wanna jump right in, then It.
