Currently reading
Incubation by Adrienne Lecter,
Final Winter by Iain Rob Wright and
by Sara Clancy.Not sure where Final Winter is going yet but the other two have been really good! I tend to stagger starting new books so one is just getting started while I've settled into the others.
A Killing Fire by Faye Snowden
and I'm really enjoying this intriguing story. Don't know where it's taking me yet but I suspect it will be pretty scary...
I’ve been wanting to read
for the longest time, so I started that. I’m joining @Terry and @Ginger in their Buddy Read of
. So I’m going to juggle two wonderful books that have been on my TBR list this 🎃 month.
i'm so excited to read this one! i had been looking for it for almost a year, but i couldn't find it around any local bookstores. one day i took a look in the freebies bin at my local used bookstore, and there it was waiting for me. clearly fate, ha ha. :)

A slow burn but I really enjoyed it.
Anybody read The Chill by Scott Carson? I'm about to start that now, heard some good things.And I just finished The Hollow Ones by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan which was pretty good. Personally, I'm never really been into the body-swap/possession angle, but the backstory was quite interesting and it was well-written, so I hope parts 2 & 3 build it into something special.
Started last night
and I'm already hooked. It s fun to be back into Joe's mind.

As a lifelong Hitchcock devotee I enjoy checking out the novels on which his films were based. I generally discover that the Hitchcock version is an improvement on the book—sometimes a huge improvement, as with Strangers on a Train or Goodbye Piccadilly, Farewell Leicester Square (the basis for “Frenzy”). I’ve enjoyed what I’ve previously read of du Maurier, though, so I have high hopes for this!

Now, THIS is the perfect Halloween season reading.
I'm in the middle of the HG Well's Collection - War of the Worlds, and also just started Witches by Roald Dahl with my 7 year old.
Hearts in Atlantis by Stephen King - not so good at posts via phone yet.

Crimson Shore
(Pendergast #15)
by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child
So good!!

Big fan of Ware, this might be her next read for me too.
I'm almost done with HG Well's The Island of Dr Moreau. Just wow is it good!
Peter, how big is that Wells collection?I'm currently reading
and
I thought I was drifting into something a bit lighter with
but I get the feeling this is gonna be real depressing.

This is the second book in the series that starts with The Dark Man which can be gotten for free on Kindle.
I recommend the series. It's an easy and fun read about a disgraced host of a ghost hunter show. Some intterested twists and turns, a bit of twisted humor, not hugely scary but does have some thrills.
Just be aware that all three books need to be read to get the complete story, but since the first one is free why not try it and see what you think.
I'm rereading the Death note series and I'm on the second volume of the black edition.
The 11th installment of the Bernard Cornwell's Saxon series 'The War of the Wolf'. I really love these books, and the BBC has done a decent job filming them so far.
The OccultistsReally loving this story of a young boy set on a course to discover his paranormal abilities in early twentieth century America. Lots of dark twists and turns as he discovers a secret society of...well, occultists.
I’m currently reading The Vampire’s Servant, by Joey W Hill, and The Road Through the Wall, by Shirley Jackson.
