It's been too long since I've read Misery and I couldn't say. If old school vampires appeal to you, then sure, try Salem's Lot. If old school tales from the crypt like horror appeals to you, try Pet Sematary. Me, I'd recommend starting with a short story collection, one of the older ones like Skeleton Crew. King also does well with stuff that's not really horror, such as "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" and "The Body", not coincidentally two of the best movie adaptations of his work. Ditto Eyes of the Dragon which is pretty much straight up fantasy.

As for The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, it's an entire novel of a little girl shitting in the woods and hallucinating about monsters while she's lost. I definitely would not say it's one of King's best.
