[Malina]

I'm reading and I cannot put it down! King will always be great!

[Debra]

I'm reading 11/22/63 right now, I'm half way through. KING writes the WORST sex scenes.

I'm just sayin'.

Other than that, he's a god!

Debra: I remember thinking he did pretty well in Hearts in Atlantis... the second part.

[Nick]

I've fallen into a couple of traps. I've agreed to be a judge on the Cinequest Film Festival so I'm reading lots of scripts these days. Some are actually pretty good. I also found an old audio book I had called How Evan Broke His Head, a novel by the guy who wrote The Art of Racing in the Rain. Very well done but the story so far is depressing as hell. No big apocalypse, just an epileptic guy whose family has pretty much written him off. Also, on a recommendation from H, just picked up The Stranger Beside Me by Ann Rule... about Ted Bundy... maybe some education before I re-read Mr. Mercedes.

[Gavin]

I'm reading The Casual Vacancy

[H]

Nick, I've only got about 100 pgs to go with your amazing tale of "Bloody Bess & the Doomsday Games", wish I could update with GR but it hardly matters @ this point:) I'll post a review soon, thanks so much Nick Iuppa! "-"

You have to admit that (per Debra) there's a few well done sex scenes in there... I hope.

[Malina]

@Nick- You will definitely like The Stranger Beside Me, I found it scarier than King, just because it's actually real, Ted Bundy was a monster

[Holly]

Loved that one, Malina! Glad you're enjoying it!

[Debra]

NICK........thanks for your comment. I'll look up Hearts in Atlantis, I read that long ago, I don't remember a sex scene. I let you know how he does OMHO

Thanks for the tip

Debra

[Debra]

Nick

The Stranger Beside Me was über Scarey cuz it's true, I've read it a few times. I think all women should read it so they can avoid pitfalls by the freaks out here stalking innocents!

Debra

[Erin]

[Kirstin]

I just started Bloody Bess and the Doomsday Games by Nick Iuppa and it's really good so far. :)

What did you think of Sow?

[Jamii]

I'm about halfway through Psycho by Robert Bloch. It's good!!

[Nick]

Jamie wrote: "I'm about halfway through Psycho by Robert Bloch. It's good!!"

This may be one of those rare times when I have to ask. Does the book measures up to the movie?

[Jamii]

Nick, so far it's not far from it, my only complaint is the way the book describes Normans appearance. Other than that it's been pretty parallel to the movie.

Thanks Jamie, the movie is one of my favorites so I guess I'd better read the book... it may also give me some more insight maybe into psycho-killers like the guy in Mr. Mercedes. Currently I'm patiently waiting for the delivery of the paperback, The Stranger Beside me... and reading scripts for Cinequest.

Thanks Jamie, the movi..."

Yea, I loved the movie, a lot. Like I said I'm just over halfway through with it, should finish tonight if all goes as planned. I'll give my final thoughts once I'm done, but so far I do suggest it!. The Stranger Beside Me, I've heard of that before, sounds good!

[Jamii]

So I finished Psycho, and I must say, I know seeing the movie first gave me different expectations than reading the book first would have but I normally still love the book more. However the book is extremely close to how the movie is almost identical, but I did prefer the movie.

Time to watch it again... when you're alone... with all the lights out... at midnight.

I definitely need to rewatch it!! But I don't know about watching it alone with the lights out at midnight, haha the movie is creeptastic! I'd probably not sleep for days!!

actually none of the movies based on stephen kings novels should be watched with the lights out at midnight!! haha

This is very true! although come Halloween time when they are showing a bunch of them, that's exactly what I'll do, cuddled up with my dogs, swearing that every creek I hear is a murderer or a ghost coming for me.

Just stay out of the shower.

[Jeff]

I always try to read one eBook, one non fiction, and one fiction at a time. Right now I am reading... White Noise by DeLillo, Who I Am by Pete Townshend and 100 Years of Solitude by Marquez.

I have a similar system! I am always listening to one audio book in my car, reading one on my Nook and reading one actual, paper book. Sometimes it takes a long time to get through the audio book, but it’s a good system for me.

That's some major writers. Love DeLillo, and Marquez. What's there to say about Pete?

That's exactly what I do, but you're right it takes a very long time to get through the audio book if you are listening to it mostly on short drives. And if the audio book is a strong one, it can overwhelm the others. To get around that, when I'm done with the print and -books, I'll listen to the audio book in the evenings instead of starting something else. that way I get some closure.

[Jeff]

I try to find a balance between heavy and more entertaining books. I'm also 700+ pages into Infinite Jest...but needed to put the book (and my notebook) down for a bit.

[H]

I'll never surrender my BA books for a e-reader or audio, for some ppl it works & I'm happy for them. As for myself, I'm a renaissance girl, I get so much pleasure from an actual book. It's weight, it's pages, it's scent,. Reading is a personal experience & if it is a well written flowing narrative, why then, you can't put it down... It enables you to fly....
@Nick, almost finished, & you sir, blew my mind "-"
