Me too! (view spoiler)[I wish the scene with Tyrone at the boat went on a little longer. (hide spoiler)]

But overall I loved how the book had this nightmarish, dreamlike quality to it. He made that seem effortless. This was my first time reading something by Farris and he's a very good writer.

[Kenneth]

I happened upon a bunch of his paperbacks for ridiculously cheap. So, I grabbed all of them and I'm ecstatic that I liked his writing. I hope all of them are as good. I'll probably read one a month, if you're interested in doing more buddy reads.

[Latasha]

I have the fury.

Look at you coming back for more! I thought for sure you and Lena we're burning your copies of Farris. Lol.

[Latasha]

Lol mine was a library loan 😝 I agree about the setting u & rachel discussed.

[Rachel]

Yes, definitely let me know which one you're reading next!

Sometimes, you have to be in a certain mood or frame of mind to read stuff like this. I remember the first time I ever tried to read Straub. I couldn't get through it and thought he was a stuffy, blow-hard. Then I picked up Ghost Story again years later and thought it was one of the most eloquently written horror stories I'd ever read. Go figure.

I could do the Fury next, since it seems a few of you have it. I simply need to whittle away at this TBR pile and then have someone stand guard at the local used book store and not let me enter!

[Rachel]

I'm reading another supernatural horror story set in the South right now (although tbf they are traveling west), but set in the 19th century, and so I've been really into this kind of southern horror mood lol.

[Latasha]

The fury was in the last nocturnal reader’s box.

[Lena]

I’m not sure I’ll finish All Heads (and can I say I’m crazy relieved I didn’t spend $200 on the Centipede Press edition months ago) but I remember seeing The Fury and might be up for trying it next month.

[Mehmet]

Finished last night and wrote a review with my thoughts still fresh in my mind.

(view spoiler)[I also felt unsure of Nhora, but in the end felt bad for all the things that happened to her. The ending was very dramatic<\spoiler> (hide spoiler)]

[Mehmet]

I have his books Shatter and Catacombs but not Fury. Anyone else have these books ?

[Kenneth]

I have Catacombs

[Mehmet]

you planning on doing buddy read of this book Ken ?

[Kenneth]

I just looked and I have Shattered too. Yes, We'll probably be doing a buddy read of more Farris either late April or early May.

[Mehmet]

ok Ken, i keep my eye out for when you start the buddy read. Cheers mate
