Rhian, So far, for me, it's only this thread. I'm wondering if the admins of this group need to create a new thread. I remember something similar happening with the last thread, so they created this one.
Thanks for that info Kathryn I will try it elsewhere and see if it's any better but I've had this issue all year, even longer maybe

Erin wrote: "Mommie Dearest by Christina Crawford"I read this book numerous times as a teen! It is at turns horrifying and hilarious.
Just finished As You Wish, Cary Elwes’s memoir about the making of the Princess Bride movie. It was really good and had comments from other actors and people involved in the making sprinkled throughout. Now I’ve just started Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng, which I’ve been meaning to get to since it came out! I really enjoyed her other book, Everything I Never Told You.

I'm so glad to hear you liked it.

Mark wrote: "Fight Club"I read this not too long ago. I enjoyed it. Reading the book makes certain parts of the movie make more sense.
I finished Wolves of the Calla. It was awesome as I was confident it would be. Next I'm going to read Duma Key.
I am reading "Danse macabre" by Stephen King and finishing "Moby Dick" by Herman Melville."Danse Macabre" seems to give a really nice overview on how Stephen King created his books. Until now he explained a little bit why people read horror stories.
"Moby Dick" is a bit of a weird book alternating really interesting parts with some descriptive ones, but all in all I have enjoyed reading it so far.

The movie is pretty crazy.
Derrick: I really enjoyed Duma Key, one of his better endings IMO.I'm currently reading Black House. So far I'm enjoying the writing much more than The Talisman.

I need to read both of those for their Dark Tower connections.
The Dunwich Horror and Other Stories by H.P. Lovecraft. Any thoughts on him? So far I've read The Dunwich Horror and have started The Whisperer in Darkness.
Drew wrote: "Just started Red Dragon"I think that one is even better than The Silence of the Lambs. I hope you enjoy it.
Kandice: I hope you get to As You Wish, it was neat to learn some behind-the-scenes stories and it’s a quick read! Derrick: I loved Duma Key! I read it while living in Florida and that made it extra fun for me.
Charles: I’m so excited you’re liking Black House! A lot of people prefer the Talisman, but I enjoyed Black House so much I literally could not put it down. I didn’t sleep all night. Henry Leyden is one of my most favorite King characters.
Still making my way through Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng, but I really enjoy it so far.
Sakshi: I enjoyed the Dresden Files, but I think I only got to book 7 or 8. I intended to finish at some point. For audiobook lovers, my roommate listened to them and they were voiced by James Marsters (Spike from Buffy). She said he did a great job.
Drew: Enjoy Red Dragon! I love the Hannibal books (even Hannibal Rising, which a lot of people disliked).
I've finished Duma Key. Probably one of the best books I've read in awhile. For me it was a nonstop emotional roller coaster from beginning to end. Next I need to read 'Salem's Lot before reading books VI and VII of The Dark Tower series.
