Ive been inching my way through One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Really good book, I just dont read it very often.

Freezer Burn by Joe R. Lansdale.

Dracula - Bram Stoker
First Ark to Alpha Centauri - A. Ahad
Haunted Landscape - Nicola Thorne

Faithless by Karin Slaughter

Hey thanks! Trying to stop by as much as possible. :D

Well, I finished Freezer Burn by Lansdale and it was interesting, not as good as the two other novels I read by him, but not bad. And he did manage to create an interesting central character; not all that likeable or all that bright, but I did find myself feeling sorry for the dumbass along the way.....:rolleyes:

still chugging away through A Horse and His Boy (c.s.lewis)

i get about 5 minutes a day to myself when i can read ...

STILL workin on The Da Vinci Code. It amazes me how much I'm loving this book, but I'm reading it SO damn slow.

Flesh and Blood by Thomas H. Cook

i cant read da vinci code, very VERY DEEP and complicated.

just started Bret Easton Ellis' Lunar Park - its pretty f***ed up. even has a fake website for his "real" lover/film star - that one threw me off

Phantoms by Dean Koontz is a good book...

Agreed, I thought it was pretty good. Far from his best work though, and if you dont already know, the ending sucks. I wont spoil it incase you dont know it yet....but I thought it was horrible.

If you like it, I really recomend Watchers and Winter Moon, if you havent already read them.

finished A Horse and His boy ... now 1/2 way through Prince Caspian

Picked up Battle Royale for the second time 2 days ago. Ill try to get all the way through it this time. Im not much of a reader. Id rather just watch the movie.

I have finished it, and you are right, the end is a little of a let down. The book does have some tense moments though. I don't know if you are aware of it but there is a movie version starring Ben Affleck. It isn't horrible.

Dean Koontz is one of my favorite authors. I have read Watchers but not Winter Moon.

no, horrible is to polite of a word for that shit.

Winter Moon doesnt live up to Watchers, but I thought it was alot better than Phantoms. IMO, nothing Koontz ever has or ever will ever write comes close to Watchers.

Winter Moon is pretty cool if you're in to alien stuff. The ending is typical Koontz...I find he can start a story and build it up great, but has no idea where it's going. Cold Fire is the best example, IMO, but you can find that in most of his work.

I am currently reading "My Left Foot" by Christy Brown. It's a great book and a truly inspiring biography. The movie version is excellent. Daniel Day Lewis's performance is fantastic.

what ? are you kidding me ?

he didnt have a leg to stand on !

:p

Groan. Don't quit your day job. LOL.

that IS my day job !! :D

just finished Lunar Park by Brett Eason Ellis (American Psycho, Less than Zero )

it was really weird, had many elements of horror, and then ended in a strange way . . . i'm still not sure how i feel about it.

I just finished reading Knife of Dreams by Robert Jordan, and with this my Wheel of Time reading is complete. I feel a little sad now. Anyway, this one was a fantastic volume. Things are really ramping up toward the conclusion, and I can barely wait. Two more years... grrrrr.

Just finished the same book myself, absolutely loved it. You could tell all the pieces were being put in place during Crossroads of Twilght and he's really done well bringing things along to set things up for the last book. Its just shit waiting so long for the next one.

Finished Prince Caspian, now into Voyage of the Dawn Treader (continuing with the CS Lewis's Narnia series)

i'm getting a little sick of the religious imagry at this point

Just out of curiosity, what was your favorite part of KoD? Myself, I loved the chapters with Mat and Tuon. The Toy/Precious stuff just really cracked me up. I'd have to say that those two are a perfect match.

Thats a really difficult one. There were so many parts of the book that had me smiling because some ongoing part of the story had concluded or some purpose had been made clear. Probably the Mat/Tuon storyline was the most enjoyable as we've been waiting for this since book 4 but i liked the final elimination of the Shaido, especially as all the archers from the Two Rivers showed up. Really looking forward to the Lan/Malkier story, cant wait to see how that turns out. Its enough to make you re-read the entire series in the hope by the time you've finished book 12 will be out!

in a japanese mood - - -

i'm in the final chapters of Kafka on the Shore (Murakami) and its a total trip - -- i'm loving it (though at page 300 I'm getting ready to be done)

Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk

First novel I have read by Palahniuk. Certainly bizarre enough and funny in a very twisted way.

LMFAO....that was so bad....:p

Every Dead Thing by John Connolly

His debut novel; one of two of his I haven't yet read....I absolutely love this author by the way. I was wondering if anyone else here was a fan, but I haven't seen him mentioned.

Just finished Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Marukami - not horror but strange and surreal . . .i loved it.

Reading Night of the Wolf by Alice Borsomethingorother

I think this go into the 'unfinished reading' pile,along with the other 7 books I started last week.
Just can't seem to pick out a good book this year:(

The Fantastic Mr. Fox. - Roald Dahl

Read it to my son last night ..

Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman.

Every Dead Thing by John Connolly. I love his books; really dark mysteries with a hint of the supernatural. And the "hero" is great, very flawed and goes too far a lot of the time, but still sympathetic.

Latest book
