Reply to comment by grimache83 in Does Don Winslow introduce endless female characters just to write explicitly about their bodies and sex lives? by hammnbubbly
So 2 novels, one of which is from the 80s. Anything from Night Shift or Everything's Eventual?

Sure. I'm a fan of King btw, it's fine to admit he has a slightly weird fixation on boobs and fat people and still enjoy his work/think he's a decent person. I excluded several instances that seemed more natural or necessary than these, although I have only read Night Shift out of the two specific works you requested.
Night Shift:
"My sister was a girl with pigtails, still without breasts." (pre-teen girl)
"There is a rolling IV tray with two bottles hung from it, like a Salvador Dali dream of tits."
Everything's Eventual:
"(Roland believed this one might be a woman, with the dangling vestiges of breasts beanth the vest it wore)"
"The one in the red vest was female. Her bare breasts swinging beneath the dirty red vest were the last things he saw..."
"Or maybe she's blowing GM cowboys in Austin or Wendover - bending forward until her breasts press flat on her thighs beneath a calendar showing tulips in Holland; gripping set after set of flabby buttocks in her hands and thinking about what to watch on TV that night, when her shift is done."
"I was aware of her breasts pushing against me, and the wet, warm clamminess over them."
"I could feel Diane's breasts brush against my back as she gasped for breath."
"She wore the medal until breasts grew around it like ordinary miracles."
"(the head housekeeper, she of the formidable gunshell tits and set, red-painted mouth)"
"I would meet a cute chick with nifty little tits"
"She sounded like the kind of woman who needs a smack every second week or so to keep her tits up."

I don't think I've read those. I know the Dark Tower series has some weird sexual stuff, The Stand too. Browse this thread I found for plenty more. I'm not arguing to not read King, but you can't ignore the fact that a lot of his books have things like this.
