I'm Debra, new member.
I just finished "Swiss Family Robinson". Enough said.
I have just started an ANNE RICE novel. "The Witching Hour" I have read Rices'. Vampire Chronicles" and enjo..."
Another suggestion (not to load you up with books, but...) Blackwood Farm by Anne Rice is also excellent!



Hey Andrew, I'm reading Farewell My Lovely by the same guy. Great reading.

I'm, only at beginning, but I like this 'old style' Crime novel by Dashiell Hammett. I've never read 'Farewell My Lovely', it's on my to be read list.
But this is by Raymond Chandler, even if on the screen it has always the face of Humphrey Bogart.

I knew if I didn't check it out I would get it wrong. :)

Enjoy! It is a great book



I think that one is a hidden gem that doesn't get much recognition amongst McCammon's work.



The Long Walk is one of my favorites.

It's one that I've been wanting read for a very long time. But, it never has become available on Kindle. So, I picked up a paperback copy and I'm reading it the old fashioned way. Lol.

Ghost Story is a helluva good tale, a real page turner. Straub did a killer job with catching your attention & keeping it, the creep factor scores as well

I, too, have some old library books. No cards in them, though. One of the things I missed most when I read the ebook was being able to easily look back at stuff. Apparently I do that a lot because I either can't remember or missed something. That's a lot easier to do with a real book.

Misty, is that the one written by Dean Koontz? If so, I really loved that book.

I have mine on my nightstand and I want to start but at the same time I want to save it for the perfect moment!

I think it's funny you say "big old" because I was a little sad it wasn't thicker! We all know how MUCH he can write. :)

After reading about 60 novels on my iPhone, just the covers makes it big... but yes, I do wish it was longer.
