I hated Gerald's Game-the worst book I've read by King, never read Cujo but the movie wasn't as dreadful as I expected. But not great either.

I'm honestly kind of surprised you didn't like Gerald's Game, or at least the last half of it. The first half I can somewhat understand but from the point that she first sees the "space cowboy" and on, it continued to draw me in. I loved it, sorry you weren't able to enjoy it.

Hi all, I"m new here. Not reading any horror at the moment. Just finished one sort of called Blood and Bullets about a vampire bounty hunter. Was ok, more like urban fantasy than horror. I don't even get some of the sub-categories anymore.

I read and loved Heart Shaped Box. It had me awake at night, much to the amusement of my fiancée (She was the one who recommended it to me). I actually think the writing of the book I recommended is quite similarly brutal, so think that Graveyard Blues might be right up your alley!

I'm also hoping some other people on here will read Graveyard Blues, because

1) It would be nice to see what some other people think of it too and talk to somebody about it.
2) I want it to do well so the author will write more.
