It's good, BUT I've read most of the stories elsewhere. A bit of a let down. I'm a happy re-reader, but would prefer a bit more that's really new.

Are there a lot of short stories that were only released on Kindle? Like In the Tall Grass?
Not sure how I feel about Dry yet.

I don't have a kindle, but at least a few were only ebooks (I got Nook Books), By the Silver Water of Lake Champlain, Wolverton Station, Thumbprint: A Story, Twittering from the Circus of the Dead and I think In the Tall Grass. Throttle was only available as an audio book and Dark Carousel was availabel as an LP only. I have all of them.
I started Full Throttle. I skipped to In the Tall Grass first so I can watch the Netflix show. Plus it has been on my Amazon wish list for at least three yrs. I couldn’t spend $4 for such a short story.

"How do you like it so far?"
So far I love it. I'm about 100 pages in. The author creates the horrific world of post-WW II Germany in incredible detail... really gives a sense of what it's like to live through that miserable time. The characters are all well-drawn, and the whole work is very well written.

I finished Mine by Robert McCammon. It is an excellent terror novel, a solid thriller that started intensely and never let up.
I started Strange Weather by Joe Hill, a collection of stories.

Today I started A Head Full of Ghosts, a book I've seen many times here. It's intriguing and difficult to classify.

McCammon was such a great horror writer back in the day, but sadly, I haven't gotten into any of his later books except for Boy's Life.

I almost finished the second part and it's great! It's distressing, a mix between horror and thriller and there is always the doubt about how much the supernatural has to do with it. I'm looking forward to finish it, Erin. :)

Glad to hear it! :)
Ron Kovic's Born on the 4th of July. Always rated the film and by far Cruise's best performance to date (and will ever be). Always wanted to read the book and now I am.
Now reading The Picture of Dorian Gray as a way of cooling off my disappointment on a book I haven't finished reading yet.
Today I've finished Cycle of the Werewolf. A good novel, short but thrilling, with an original narration divided by months of the year.
Currently reading: The House Next Door by Anne River Siddons (one that Stephen King talks a great deal about in Danse Macabre). It’s good.

He was REALLY, REALLY good in that. I do think it's his best role also. I can't recall if this was before or after Top Gun, but he proved beyond any doubt he can play serious roles as well as "pretty boy" roles he's done.
I haven't read the book, but I will one day.
