Most recent book you have read

[smokey]

I thought i would start this up again because it always gives me ideas of some books to check out. Hopefully it helps other people aswell.

Last book i read was Spirit by Graham Masterton. Book was ok not my favourite Masterton book. Still worth a read though.

[DrSatan]

Hell's Angels by Hunter Thompson
Cell by Stephen King

[Evil Dave]

Cell.

Just ordered a bunch of zombie books.

[Johnny_Luck]

In the last couple weeks I have read 4 books.

1.Fool Moon by Jim Butcher

(Goodfor a second book but could have been better, his endings lack a certain something)

2.Mistle Toe Murder by Leslie Meier

(I had read Back to School Murder the 4th book and it was solid so I finally found the first book and it was garbage. I still have 3, 7 and 9 in the series to read if I want to, but I probably just read #3 and thats it)

3.Killer Pancake by Diane Mott Davidson

(The fifth book in the series and of the first five its easily the best so far. The killer wasn't random like the others and I hate when they throw so many people out there so you can try and guess and then the killer ends up being someone barely in the book just so the arthur can say that you can't guess who the killer is.

This one was great and I cannot wait to read the next 7 of them.)

4. Nightingales Lament

(This is Books 3 of the Nightside series and again this is amazing book and his ending is much improved over the first two. I cannot wait to get into the rest of the series.)


Right now I am 12 pages into Blood Bound by Patricia Briggs and 100 pages into Grave Peril by Jim Butcher. Soon start The Main Corpse by Diane Mott Davidson as well, I have to read 3 at a time as I have 22 books to read by april, plus college going on as well.

[ozzy81]

Re-reading all of the Narnia books. Good stuff.

[toxicangel19]

[toxicangel19]

[Joker]

I just finished Bite by Laymon.
I just ordered World War Z,so I hope it's good.

[dead breed]

Just read my Accounting book for school...does that count? haha

[choptop2]

On bit of a Gibson kick, been reading a lot of his shorts and started pattern regonition (got for 2.99 at an outlet store) but then picked up Neuromancer, and haven't been able to put it down. Gibson's prose is genius.

[Toxic Voorhees]

Goosebumps - Why I'm afraid of bees

I read those during my shits

Good zombie book. Romero type zombies minus the people eating. It's follows 3 people trying to survive after most of the world dies suddenly from a unknown disease, Some of the dead turn into zombies. Just started the sequel Autumn: The City.

Gonna get around to reading this soon.

[Johnny_Luck]

Grave Peril by Jim Butcher

Didn't like the way he just threw michael in there with no history or proper introduction. Also I felt like something in between the middle and the end was missing from the story. Though the end to the book was amazing compared to the lackluster endings in the first two.

Cannot wait to dip my hands into Summer Knight.

Right now I am reading The Main Corpse by Daine Mott Davidson and Blood Bound by Patricia Briggs.

[smokey]

Jus finished reading Winter Moon by Dean Koontz. I really liked it.

[Johnny_Luck]

Blood bound by Patricia Briggs, as good if not a tiny bit better than the first.

[redheaded being]

right now im reading a book in school.. nothing im proud of but still its a little interesting since you can discuss all this baby-abortion thing after youve read it..
rather interesting..

but again the book sucks hah...

[Nightflyer]

Just about to start on Kathy Reichs "Bare Bones" I love the show, so thought I'd give the books a shot.

Last finished one was Jeff Lindsay's Dealry Devoted Dexter. (That was a while back, been slack of late)

[Johnny_Luck]

Blood and Chocolate--I don't see why people are complaining, the book was good but would have made a horrible movie.

[Hellraiser_89]

I'm currently reading Darkly Dreaming Dexter, and so far it's been pretty good.

[skybrick]

Just finished Misery, My favorite King book.

I have to say that his best movie made from a book is Pet Sementary of Carrie though

[Aurone]

I read the finale book the "His Dark Materials" Trilogy. While it's kinda ment to be aimed at kids, it's kinda not a kid trilogy of books. Still good, I recomend reading it.

[Johnny_Luck]

Just finished Misery, My favorite King book.

I have to say that his best movie made from a book is Pet Sementary of Carrie though

I would have to say needful things is my favorite king book and storm of the century is the best movie/mini series from his work.

[DrSatan]

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey. Great book.

[dead breed]

Misery by Steve King ...my fav book by him

The Hobbit ... easily one one my fav books

[thorn_man]

Starting to read 'The God Delusion'. The preface was pretty interesting, and I saw Dawkins' special "The Root of All Evil?" on youtube recently, which made me want to read the book.

I felt even more compelled to read it when people in Books A Million tried to persuade me not to read it.

Good zombie book, I'll start the 3rd book of the series this week.

[DrSatan]

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep by Phillip K. Dick.

[DeathBanana]

Just finished Darkly Dreaming Dexter: good, but not as good as the series.

Now I'm reading The Boleyn Inheritance.

[Chief Falling Rock]

just finished reading Spiderman 3. I hope to God they change the ending.

[prettyrotten]

I've just read Erotique Digitale: The Art of Erotic Digital Photography

It was pretty informative... :D

[Snuggle]

Haunted by Chuck Palahnuck (sp) Sick fucking book, literally.

[K.I.N.G]

The last Book I read was American Psycho. After I finish my current book Stephen King's Dreamcatcher i'll read Misery by same author which I picked up for $4.95 in the bargain bin at Angus & Robertson

[dead breed]

Misery is the best King book IMO....loved it

[K.I.N.G]

It sounds pretty interesting can't wait to read it once i finish this 700 page monster Dreamcatcher

[Chief Falling Rock]

im in the middle of book 9 of the Dresden Files: White Night. Its GREAT. Gotta love supernatural stuff with a touch of sarcastic humor.

[Aurone]

I'm read Heretics of Dune. This is the 3rd time trying to read it, I want to finish it since I want to go onto Chapterhouse and the sequel and prequel books to the orrigenal trilogy.

[smokey]

Just finished reading Nemesis by Shaun Hutson. I really liked this. Book was quite gory aswell. I would recommend this book.

[Chief Falling Rock]

just finished White Night which is book 9 of the Dresden Files and it was EXCELLENT. Finished reading The Lust Lizard of Melancholoy Cove by Christopher Moore and it was very funny. Right now im in the middle of You Suck by Christopher Moore. Its a sequal to Bloodsucking Fiends which is also hilarious. If your in the mood for funny and you want a supernatural/horror (usually) twist to it. Read Christopher Moore he's funny.

I just ordered the Graphic Novels Bigfoot by Steve Niles and Rob Zombie and I also ordered Marvel Zombies.

[C.H.U.D.]

I just read "Lords Of Chaos: The Bloody Rise of the Satanic Metal Underground". It's about various Black Metal artists (no, not MTV mall-goth "black metal" bands like Cradle of Filth or Dimmu Borgir). It explains the various motivs for killing other band members, burning of churches, and more. Rather interesting read for sure.

[H78]

The 47 Ronin
Bhagavad Gita
Things Fall Apart

[Aurone]

I'm reading Battle Royale at the moment. First 60 pages in and I'm like.....Wow, as dark as the movie is, this has it beat already.

[Chief Falling Rock]

I'm reading Battle Royale at the moment. First 60 pages in and I'm like.....Wow, as dark as the movie is, this has it beat already.


yeah and you won't be dissapointed by the rest. Its quite different from the movie actually. But equally just as badass.

I just finished Reading Carpe Demon: Adventures of a Demon Hunting Soccer Mom. It turned out to be pretty funny. Its about a woman named Kate Connor who is a retired Demon Hunter. She lives now with her Husband and 2 kids, Allie-14 and Timmy-2. None of which know anything about her former life. When demons start showing up in town and trying to kill her shes got no choice but to fend them off while trying to pretend like nothing is happening and lead the life of a wife/mother. Theres a high demon named Goramesh who is looking for a holy relic in her townin California and plans to raise and army from the dead to take over the world. It ended up being pretty funny, while the mommy and wife stuff does take a big chunk of the book the writer (Julie Kenner) does manage to throw in a lot of humor when need be. But get down and serious when the demons show up. Anyone into horror/comedy (a genre thats far far better in book form) should check this out.

[smokey]

Just finished reading Hideaway by Dean Koontz. I thought this was pretty good. Gonna start reading Beware! by Richard Laymon tomorrow.

[K.I.N.G]

Finally read Misery, it was a real page turner. I finished it in two days. Even the story inside the story was excellent.

[smokey]

Just finished reading Beware! by Richard Laymon. Not his best but still a good read. Gonna start reading One Rainy Night by Richard Laymon tomorrow.

[choptop2]

Just finished If Chins Could Kill. Great read a lot of insightful things on lowbudget filmmaking behind and in front of the camera.

[DrSatan]

Without Feathers by Woody Allen.

[K.I.N.G]

War of The Worlds by H.G. Wells

[choptop2]

Make love the Bruce Campbell way. Pretty funny stuff.

Bruce racing around the smithsonian and DC with John Dillenger's penis, why isn't this an actual movie or miniseries.

I have been meaning to get this series. Sounds cool.

[Highwayman]

A little while ago I finished two books, Curse of the Red Cross Ring and the Johnny Cash Autobiography: Cash. I just finished King of the Night; The Life of Johnny Carson - it was a great read.

[DrSatan]

Started American Psycho yesterday and I'm about 100 pages in. Nice book, silky smooth pages with an almost ethereal quality. The cover is sturdy yet flexible, and adorned with a classy typeface that impresses yet does not distract from the overall beauty of the artwork. Recommended.

[Snuggle]

I read Ice Station which is an over the top action espionage novel that was pretty fun but feel guilty enjoying it so much. I also read The Rising by Brian Keene neat twist on zombies and I just got the sequel yesterday. I'll read it when I'm done with The Butcher's Boy.

[Miss.Jasmine]

Choke-Chuck Palahniuk ((Awesome))

Mr Murder / Dean Koontz
Pretty intresting. 1st book I read by him. Usualy I get bord quickly from reading I'd rather watch a movie on something insted of reading. This one held me. I'm gonna try another one from him. Any recomendations?
Clive Barker / Books Of Blood. I liked these alot.

[smokey]

Mr Murder / Dean Koontz

He has alot to choose from. I have read a fair amount of his books. I have not really been disappointed by any of them. I would recommend Odd Thomas. A very cool book. Saying that he does have alot of really good books out.

[K.I.N.G]

IT by Stephen King, good book.

[Aurone]

Interview with a Vampire. I'm hoping I like it enough so that after it I can try at the rest of the series.

[toxicangel19]

curretly reading mao the unknown story by jung chang

[3/6]

i dont really read to much
but i just finished
fear and loathing in Lv

[DrSatan]

Read Kafka's The Trial, and John Fantes' Ask the Dust. Both are amazing must read books.

[MrNobody]

Velosity / Dean Koontz. Great book, start to finish. He leaves something at the end of each chapter that makes you want to go onto the next one. Hard to put this one down. Coming from a guy that doesn't read many books. I just started on another Koontz book / The Bad Place. Not much into it yet but I'll be back when I finish. Reading puts me to sleep so this could take a while........

[deathslasher666]

Battle Royale
Blood The Last Vampire: Night of the Beasts

[smokey]

Finished reading One Rainy Night by Richard Laymon last night. Book was ok. Not my favourite of his. Still a decent read though. Going to start to read Cold Fire By Dean Koontz today.

[smokey]

Just finished reading Cold Fire by Dean Koontz. I really liked this book. Gonna start reading Brother Odd tonight.

[choptop2]

Pattern Recognition pretty cool story about corporate espionage/viral advertising.

[Luris Blear]

I love viral advertising. As lame as it can be, it did lead to a site where you can play 20 Questions against Darth Vader. Done right, it's pretty fun.

I'm almost finished enduring Shadowfall by James Clemens right now. Man, I love his grasp of what new audiences want in fantasy. The man builds worlds with amazing skill. But the dude is way too interested in body fluids. The entire banned and the banished series felt overfull with references to womens' periods. Or more common, the first periods of young women. This new series leaves no form of excretion forgotten. So it's a love/hate thing with his books.

[Miss.Jasmine]

I'll be reading the new harry potter as of friday!
AHHHHHHH YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

[Luris Blear]

Heh. I've had mine on pre-order for months.

And this time I don't think the internet has managed to ruin it for anyone. Yet.

[K.I.N.G]

The media ruined the surprise of ***spoiler*** the death of Dumbledore last book for me. So I might do a media blackout this time.

[smokey]

I'll be reading the new harry potter as of friday!
AHHHHHHH YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

Yeah i am in a rush now to finish Brother Odd in time for Friday.

[smokey]

Just finished reading Brother Odd. I thought this was a pretty decent book. Not as good as the first one though.

Okay, I finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows as quickly as possible to negate any chance of having the book spoiled by internet trolls. Did that today.

Finally finished Shadowfall by James Clemens on Friday.

[Miss.Jasmine]

I Just started to new Harry Potter book, and it's really good thus far

[Toxic Voorhees]

Horrorshow. Sex craved zombies is something ive never witnessed before. 8/10

[smokey]

Just finished reading Harry Potter & The Deathly Hollows and loved it. Gonna start reading Blood Crazy by Simon Clark tomorrow.

[K.I.N.G]

I'm simultaneously reading Harry Potter and the deathly hallows and Interview with the Vampire.

[3/6]

i just read a book called teh devils knot, it was crazy, its about 3 kids who r murdered and the prime suspects are 3 goth kids, the only reason there suspetcs is because they listen to satanic music, dress in all black, extc. extc. all the evidence pointed at one of the kids(who was killed) step dad, but becasue there all red necks they convicted the 3 goth kids, there still in jail
fuckin regodDamndiculus

[Toxic Voorhees]

Just started Interview with the Vampire. Pretty different from the movie so far

[thorn_man]

Nineteen Eighty-Four and A Memory Keepers Daughter.

Memory Keepers Daughter was interesting, but I hated the way it was written.

[deathslasher666]

Over the summer, I read a crap load of books, some of them were:

Negima!: books 1-14 (mangas)
Judas: books 1-3 (mangas)
Chibi Vampire: Books 1-4 (mangas)
Chibi Vampire: Novels 1-2
Hellsing: books 3-5 (mangas)
XXXholic: books 1-7 (mangas)
Princess Ressurection: Book 1 (manga)
Innocent W: Books 1-2 (manga)
Trigun: Book 1 (manga)

That's all I can remember at the moment.

[K.I.N.G]

Finished HP7 and moving onto Battle Royale, good so far.

[smokey]

Finished reading Blood Crazy earlier. Quality book. Glad i bought it. Gonna start reading The Ghoul by Brian Keene on Monday.

[Snuggle]

Finished HP7 and moving onto Battle Royale, good so far.
Battle Royale will not disappoint. It is a fucking fantastic book and surpasses the movie by far.

I read all these this summer.

A Game of Thrones - Best fantasy novel I've ever had the pleasure of reading. George R.R. Martin is a fucking genius.

Battle Royale - Previously mentioned.

Ice Station - Awesome mindless action novel. Scarecrow shoots a whale in the face.

Area 7 - Mindless action novel featuring Scarecrow once again. Matthew J. Reilly is great at writing this over the top shit.

Black Creek Crossing by John Saul - Decent at best. Carrie?

Scarecrow - The third Scarecrow novel in Matthew J. Reilly's series.

The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum - A pretty graphic, shocking novel.

The Butcher's Boy by Thomas Perry - Awesome hitman novel.

The Long Walk by Stephen King - The pacing was a bit off but in the end I still loved it.

Killing Floor by Lee Child - Great thrill ride of a novel. I can't wait to read more of his.

[K.I.N.G]

When I finished BR I immediately wanted to read it again, it was really that good.

[smokey]

The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum - A pretty graphic, shocking novel.

Yes indeed. A good novel but disturbing aswell.

[cabal]

Just finished reading Clive Barker's Weaveworld. It was one of the best Horror/Fantasy Novels I've read.

[K.I.N.G]

Started SK's Desperation.

[smokey]

Just finished Ghoul by Brian Keene. I really enjoyed it.

[Dessico]

Just finished reading Clive Barker's Weaveworld. It was one of the best Horror/Fantasy Novels I've read.

Been meaning to check that one out, as well as Coldheart Canyon and Galilee.

I just finished Hellbound Heart. Lots of little details that weren't in the movie, although it was adapted pretty well.

[Misfit]

heart of darkness by joseph conrad

[K.I.N.G]

I was thinking of ordering in The Shining, anyone know if it's any good?

[dead breed]

Yeah its worth a read for sure.

[deathslasher666]

Innocent W volume 3
Chibi Vampire volume 5
Negima! volume 15

[BigDog21]

I'm reading the harry potter series for the first time. Eh, it's ok. I'm on the 4th book. before that I had read Brian Keene - Ghoul and Richard Laymon - Island

I'm itching to finish the HP series cause I bought both Jack Ketchum - offspring and offseason a few weeks back and I heard good stuff about them

[Luris Blear]

Weaveworld was by far one of the most interesting books I have ever read. It was a pretty good combination of everything great about Barker.

[Snuggle]

In the past few weeks I have read.

Killing Floor by Lee Child - Jack Reacher spends less than an hour in a small town and is arrested for murder. Even though he hasn't killed anyone for a long time. Dun Dun Dun. Fast paced, interesting, mystery/action. Lots of bad assery.

Rain Fall by Barry Eisler - A hitman that falls for the daughter of his last kill. Then he is hired to kill her. Dun Dun Dun. Superb thriller/action with vivid Tokyo imagery.

Die Trying by Lee Child- Second Jack Reacher Novel. Jack Reacher is walking down the street when he helps this handicapped lady with some heavy bags and is then kidnapped by some right wing nut jobs. Little does he know that the handicapped woman is more important than he can possibly imagine. Dun Dun Dun. Plenty of bad assery, sweet action, good pacing, enticing mystery. Pretty much as good as the Killing Floor.

I just started Darkly Dreaming Dexter which is about a serial killer that only kills bad people. It's a show on showtime called Dexter.

[smokey]

I'm itching to finish the HP series cause I bought both Jack Ketchum - offspring and offseason a few weeks back and I heard good stuff about them

I have read Off Season which i really liked. I have not checked Offspring out yet. I think i have got it.

[prettyrotten]

Jack Ketchum - The Girl Next Door

I bought it because of what I read on here and on amazon. It was pretty bizarre. I couldn't wrap my head around these kids acting like it was alright to do this to another person.

[violent d]

A Clockwork Orange...again.

When I have nothing new to read I always end up re-reading it.

In the dark is a quality read. I like Bentley Littles stuff. Have not read The Vanishing yet.

[myersgirl13]

it was really good! i highly suggest! i love laymons books!

[Chief Falling Rock]

I read The Island awhile back, it wasn't bad. Laymon could write a good story. But after awhile he'd get so sexual it would make things ridiculous. Are all his books like that?

I just picked up Legend. Its part 2 in the Event series. I havent read the first one but I figured screw it I'll get it anyway.

If you are interested in Laymon you should try "The Traveling Vampire Show" or "Blood Games".

All of Laymons books are entertaining but these two stand out the most for me, a long time Laymon reader.

[K.I.N.G]

Gave up on Interview with... and started Desperation.

[toxicangel19]

currently reading r.a salvatore's forgotten realms novel the orc king it just came out so far i am pleased with it i recommend picking up a copy i love the front cover with drizzit he looks killer!!

[Gilly]

I recently bought Hannibal Rising, not picked it up yet though...I havn't read a book for years.

[K.I.N.G]

Hannibal Rising is a great book, it's the only one the movie stays true to.

[choptop2]

I never really read any stephen king, so I decided to pick up Skeleton crew. I figured short story collection would be place to start. I am reading the Mist right now. So far so good. Let's hope Darabont does a good job with the film.

[K.I.N.G]

Purchased Stephen King's 'The Backman Books'. Which features 4 of his stories, when he was writing as Richard Backman. They include Rage, The Long Walk, Roadwork and The Running Man. The only one that's missing is Thinner, which i'll pick up some time in the future.

[myersgirl13]

im still currently reading the midnight tour by laymon, its really good and im about half way through!

[BooBerry]

Reading Heart-Sick. Think Silence of the Lambs, just reversed. Crazy as hell female serial killer (loves her X-Acto knife and drain cleaner) who conversates with the Detective she tortured as he investigates a child killer.

did you buy it used? I read rage will no longer be published, due to it involving school shootings.

[BooBerry]

did you buy it used? I read rage will no longer be published, due to it involving school shootings.

I doubt it. If it's no longer published, its probably going to be because there's too small a market for it.

[K.I.N.G]

did you buy it used? I read rage will no longer be published, due to it involving school shootings.

Nah it's brand new, they seem to still be publishing it.

Nah it's brand new, they seem to still be publishing it.Then it was sitting there for a while, I think. From SK's website (To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 5 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.):


RAGE (1977) (Out of Print)

Publisher: New American Library
Formats Available: Paperback Reissued by NAL and Plume as part of the omnibus collection titled The Bachman Books

NOTE: Because of the sensitive nature of the content of this book and its association with school shootings in the United States, Stephen has decided to prohibit any future printings of this book.Picked up a hardcover copy on ebay after I got the last Bachman work, Blaze.

reading The Running Man right now. Kind of pulpy, but not like the film. A good read so far.

[Misfit]

shadowrun: ragnarok

[K.I.N.G]

Isn't 1408 a really short story?

Yeah, I thought it was an entire book but it turns out it's part of the Everything's Eventual novel which contains 14 short stories.

[VM666]

I Am Legend, its a damn shame the movie will be nothing like the book, aside from one man living in a world full of vampires.

[Luris Blear]

I finished Confessor by Terry Goodkind last weekend. Got it signed, and he wrote a short message on the front that just about left me crying.

A fitting end to a wonderful series.

[BooBerry]

Heartsick. It's kind of like Silence of the Lambs but with a male detective and a female serial killer. Pretty cool.

[myersgirl13]

finished in the dark of the night- really good, just not as vulgar as im used to reading...

now im reading house infernal by edward lee- its a very dark, good vs evil kind of book...pretty good so far!

[myersgirl13]

just finished house infernal- 6/10 could've been more explicit

just started The beast house-laymon, so far so could, obviously!

[choptop2]

Right now I am in the middle of the Shining.

Myers girl you're a Palahniuk fan right? He's got a new one, SNUFF, coming out in May. That should be a great read, though he set the bar high with Rant.

[koolmike]

CROSS - Patterson

[smokey]

I am going to have to start reading again. I have not read a book in ages.

[K.I.N.G]

Nearly done with The Glory Bus, Laymon's a good writer and i'll need to buy more of his books.

Maybe The Girl Next Door, that sounds cool.

:nod: Girl Next Door was amazing. I just bought A Night in the Lonesome October but haven't started it yet. All his stuff is worthwhile though.

[Chief Falling Rock]

just finished the novelization of Infinite Crisis. Just started on the Novelization of 52. Read volume 1 of the thunderbolts which is AWESOME. And I'm reading the comic series Black Adam: The Dark Age. Pretty sweet so far.

The Girl next door is a very good book. Very disturbing though. A night in a lonesome october is a quality book. I have said it before Laymon is great. Love his books

I actually havent read anything by him! sounds interesting...got a list of his books or some suggestions???

The Girl Next Door was very good...disturbing and raw knowing that its based on true events too:dsp:

Im pissed because I've had this movie in my que for netflix for weeks and it came out on tuesday and no my que says its a long wait:oogle:

[K.I.N.G]

The girl next door was made into a movie?

[BooBerry]

Im pissed because I've had this movie in my que for netflix for weeks and it came out on tuesday and no my que says its a long wait:oogle:

Same here. Have you heard about An American Crime? It's a movie based on the true story that GND was based on. Looks equally enthralling.

PS- I just now caught it, but Richard Laymon didn't write The Girl Next Door, it was Jack Ketchum. Both are amazing writers.

[willE84]

"The Quickie" - James Pattersen

[K.I.N.G]

Read the 1408 short story, pretty good gave me the jitters.

[BooBerry]

I just picked up Jack Ketchum's OffSpring. Loved The OffSeason, thought it was like reading an 80's horror movie so I'm excited.

Also picked up BTVS: Queen of the Slayers :o)

[Grendel]

Expensive People - Joyce Carol Oates

A genius kid in the Detroit suburbs cracks up under the stresses of his whacked out family in the late 1960s.

[cmurdur]

real book-Dracula
graphic novel-The Walking Dead vol 1

[koolmike]

Double Cross by Patterson

Excellent read.

[BooBerry]

Just finished Off Spring by Ketchum. Was just as amazing as Off Season.

Today I started Lisey's Story again because I couldn't get into it last time I tried. Seems better now, not as all over the place.

[Snuggle]

Florida Roadkill by Tim Dorsey - What a fucking crazy book, it was like a mixture of Pulp Fiction, No Country for Old Men, and a random comedy movie thrown in. I honestly can't explain it.

Doesn't this one have a serial killer in it, but it's lighthearted? Even more so than Dexter? I think I read a review on the series of books a while back.

Yeah, Serge A Storms. This books is filled with dark comedy and kept me laughing from the end. He is a very loveable sociopath. I liked it enough to buy the next four in the series, even though I haven't started the next one yet.

[K.I.N.G]

Death Note manga Vol. 1
Battle Royale manga Vol. 1 and;
began on the Claymore manga Vol. 1

These are great 'cause you can read them in like an hour.

[K.I.N.G]

Death Note manga Vol. 2-3
Claymore manga Vol. 2-3

[K.I.N.G]

Just bought Dean Koontz's Frankenstein Book One: Prodigal Son and Book Two: City Of Night.

[smokey]

Just finished reading The Everlasting by Tim Lebbon. Not a bad book at all.

[myersgirl13]

The Heroin Diaries by Nikki Sixx of Motley Crue...This book was FUCKIN AMAZNG!!!! i couldnt put it down, i give this man so many props for being clean for the past 20 years..if anyone is a fan you should FOR SURE pic it up...the illustrations and real photos are amazing as well! 10/10

[Highwayman]

I'm currently reading; Stephen King's Misery. I never seen the flick yet, i'll rent it afterwords.

[Chief Falling Rock]

readin Spiderman:The Darkest Hours. Jim Butcher is a favorite author of mine so I figured I'd see how he did with the web slinger.

[BooBerry]

Tried to read something called The Dawning by Hugh Cave but it's ungodly slow and boring. Plus, the Americans (in a future America) talk like proper British scholars for some reason and it makes me feel like I'm reading Wuthering Heights.

I think I'm going to read another Laymon or Ketchum book. Can't go wrong with those guys. Anyone read Blood Games? Been wondering bout that one.

[K.I.N.G]

Bought Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and 10,000 leagues under the sea.

[smokey]

Blood games by Richard Laymon is a pretty good book. I read it a while ago. As you said you can't really go wrong with him.

[Misfit]

reading world war z then its off to read the 6 brian keene books i bought

[smokey]

Finished reading The Taken by Sarah Pinborough. Really enjoyed it. Its the second book i have read by this english author. The first one i read Breeding Ground was quaility aswell. Gonna have to check out some of her other books. I recommend The Taken and The Breeding Ground.

Started reading Revelation by Bentley Little today.

[K.I.N.G]

Reading Richard Bachman's (A.K.A. Stephen King) Blaze. It's not very good so far, but it might get better further in.

[Snuggle]

I read Triage by Jack Ketchum, Richard Laymon, and Edward Lee. The best story was by Ketchum but the entire book was pretty entertaining. I think most of you Laymon and Ketchum fans will really enjoy it.

I also read The Serial Killers Club. It reminded me a lot of Darkly Dreaming Dexter but it was still a fun read. There were some interesting characters and if your into the light hearted serial killer deal you will probably enjoy it.

The Gunslinger by Stephen King is the latest book I've read. I've been wanting to get into the Dark Tower series for a while but I never really got the chance. I thought it was pretty entertaining and well written, much better than his latest stuff. I'll read the second one later.

[Triff89]

Love & Death

[BooBerry]

Been wanting to read Triage. Some of my favorite authors.

[smokey]

I read Triage by Jack Ketchum, Richard Laymon, and Edward Lee. The best story was by Ketchum but the entire book was pretty entertaining. I think most of you Laymon and Ketchum fans will really enjoy it.

Cheers for the heads up. I will add this to my wishlist.

[myersgirl13]

currently reading cuts by laymon....need i say more...its fuckin awesome!!!!

[K.I.N.G]

Finished Blaze last week, now i'm about a hundred or more pages into Cell by Stephen King.

[Highwayman]

Finished Blaze last week, now i'm about a hundred or more pages into Cell by Stephen King.

Cell was that the book Eli Roth was gonna turn into a movie?

[K.I.N.G]

Yes. The prat.

Red Harvest.

Brother Odd - D Koontz

[xxsic4slipknotxx]

"Washington's Crossing" by David Hackett Fisher

I had to read this for a college history course. I thought it was an interesting book, since I live only minutes from where this actually took place.

I've also been reading Stephen King's "Dreamcatcher".

[Chief Falling Rock]

went to the comic shop yesterday and picked up all 6 issues of Freddy vs Jason vs Ash. All in all it was really good. Wished the movie had happend.

Also got the 2 issue storyline Friday the 13th:How I spent my Summer Vacation. Its a bout a mentally handicapped kid @ Crystal Lake that Jason doesn't kill because he reminds him of when he was a boy. Jason kills everyone else of course and then just drags the kid along while he kills people. Its pretty funny actually, you kinda feel sorry for Jason though.

[Bella]

Just finished "Lamb: The gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal" by Christopher Moore. I love all of Moore's books. Good stuff.

[Bella]

How was it? I am starting Odd Thomas.

[Chief Falling Rock]

Just finished "Lamb: The gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal" by Christopher Moore. I love all of Moore's books. Good stuff.

I love Moore. I haven't read Lamb yet but I have it. I think I'm gonna read Practical Demonkeeping next. I've read Dirty Job,Lust Lizard,Stupidest Angel,Bloodsucking Fiends,You Suck and Island of the Sequined Love Nun. All his stuff is hilarious

Never thought I'd read a pink book but Sequined love nun is pinker than pink. And that books hilarious.

I like moore cuz he puts supernatural elements in his books. Stupidest Angel was probably my favorite and I love that he threw zombies in there. I've heard the angel from stupidest angel is the same one from Lamb.

[K.I.N.G]

Mum bought me the book "It's Only A Movie" a personal biography of Alfred Hitchcock, so awesome. Can't wait to read it.

[dead breed]

[koolmike]

Why is this thread here?

[K.I.N.G]

There's no longer a Book forum and all Horror related books are to be directed to Horror Talk.

See Fright's "Changes" thread.

[K.I.N.G]

I've officially started my Dark Tower series collection, just bought The Gunslinger today. Right now i'm reading Dean Koontz's: Frankenstein book one Prodigal Son, and damn it's good.

[Chief Falling Rock]

I'm reading Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore. Pretty funny so far. And Misfit if you liked Meg you should check out the sequals. They kinda get into the are you kidding me territory but there still fun reads. Theres sequals right now, The Trench then Primal Waters. He's gonna write a fourth called Hell's aquarium.

[Misfit]

already picked them up and will eventually read em

[BooBerry]

I'm finishing up Christpher Rice's Light Before Day (Anne Rice's son, gay serial killer novel). After that I think I'm going to start some memoirs I've been interested in.

I haven't read them all yet... takes some time as u can see haha Read a lot of them but not all. But My Fav probably has to be the 1st King Book I read which was Carrie, got me into his books and also into horror genre. My Dad signed me up in A Stephen King Club so whenever a new book comes it gets mailed to me. My Dad is a HUGE stephen king fan.

EDIT: IT is also a very good book too. I need to re-read it sometime.

EDIT AGAIN: Oh sweet I was lookin' at that picture, And I found a movie that I've been lookin' for forever! Rabid Grannies! Way in the bottom left.

looks like my book shelf, well one of them. i have 3 and 2 are full and one is half full. i got all my kings books on ebay tho. mayhaps i shall get my books rounded up and show you

[BooBerry]

King's always been a hit and miss for me. Some books are amazing (Cell, Carrie, Firestarter, Cujo) and others I just didn't like (IT, Gerald's Game, Dreamcatcher).

[Gatsu18]

I've been writing a book as of late *as of late being over the last 4 years* but the last book I guess I've legitimately read was the final harry potter. Which i must say was boring as hell.

[Miss.Jasmine]

i really hated dreamcatcher, it was too all over the place for me.
but i am currently reading:
Rant by Chuck Palahniuk

[K.I.N.G]

It took me like 5 years to finish Dreamcatcher :mhehe:

[choptop2]

I plan on ordering SNUFF from Chuck Palahniuk off amazon this week.

I recently read The Green Mile and and a few short stories into Everything is Eventual. I really think his shorts and non horror are much better I need to check out Different seasons and Hearts in Atalantis.

[toxicangel19]

I just finished harry potter and the deathly hallows!!! OMG It was so awsome especially the ending...(which i will not tell anyone anything!!!) sorry no spoilers here. Im kinda sad that im done reading the series since it was such a good one. Now im on Promise of the witch king another fabulous novel by R.A. salvatore from the forgotten realms series.

[Bronner]

Naked Lunch, by William S. Burroughs.

[choptop2]

Finished Snuff the other day. I liked it, not sure how I felt about the ending though.

Started The long walk, by "Richard Bachman" today. I like the Bachman books.

[choptop2]

Naked Lunch, by William S. Burroughs.

He's not for everyone and a little hard to get into, but there are lot of great themes running around in Burroughs work.

[Bronner]

He's not for everyone and a little hard to get into, but there are lot of great themes running around in Burroughs work.

Yeah, tell me about it. I have no idea what that book was about. :scratch:

[choptop2]

Control and Power.( Junkie and Dealer, Doctor and Patient, Government and People) It takes a few readings, and honestly there are parts I still I don't get.

The chapters with Mad Scientist Doctor Benway are my favorite and they're also the most narrative parts . Benway appears in a lot of his work.
