I'm currently reading Stephen King's "The Long walk" again....One of my fav's from him and it's been along time since I read it....

If anyone's read it already, don't say anything.

Palahniuk is one of my faves.
I have read Haunted. Let me know what you think of it when you're finished. Have you read his other books?

Kiss the Girls by James Patterson- Definatly a recomended read if you're into crime/detective type novels. Having read Along Came a Spider, the 1st book in his Alex Cross saga, I am definatly becoming a fan of Mr. Patterson, and I plan to read more. He has a knack for creating creepy vilains, not so much in this as in ACAS though.


Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman- Been hearing tons of good things boput this guy, so I figured that I aughta read something of his. Definatly didnt disapoint. Very good read. The varied characters were a strong point: It seemlessly combined everything from the very human, very realistic character of Richard, to the larger-than-life characters such as Croup and Vandemar. The world he created was also breathtaking, as well as very realistic i a fantastic sort of way. In fewer words: I loved it, cover to cover.

I think Patterson is good plotwise and I actually did like Kiss the Girls. But I don't really like his abrupt writing style, it feels like the characters are never properly developed and the chapters are annoyingly short. But I still read them...LOL....hey, they are quick anyway.

The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum. It's every bit as sad and disturbing as it's made out to be.

Finished the second Abarat book, and I enjoyed it more than the first one, I must say. And now I am reading A Stroke of Midnight by Laurell K. Hamilton. I am actually starting to like this series more than the Anita Blake series (which to me began to rapidly go downhill after Obsidian Butterfly).
