What do you think of 11/22/63, so far?
Ania, I've got Seed on my kindle!
Just finished Room By Emma Donoghue and Have You Seen Her By Karen Rose and now I'm starting Lost Dogs and Lonely Hearts By Lucy Dillon
I meant the Jonathan Maberry Bad Moon Rising
I'm reading The Darkest Room right now. I've recently read Echoes from the Dead and The Darkest Room is the second book in the series set in Oland, Sweden. Echoes from the Dead was really good!
About 20% through 1Q84. My first by this author. Style is unlike anything I've read before but I like it.
A book that I think is just as good as Stephen King's finer works:
- Bad Moon Rising by Jonathan Maberry
After that for me it's:
- Bad Moon Rising by Jonathan MaberryAfter that for me it's:
I just finished
even though I thought the movie sucked I really liked the book (4 stars)... I would probably read some more from the author if only he had written more than two books in almost 20 years...Just started
by Peter V. Brett ... 50 pages in it's building up pretty good I think ;) // Edit: I have
in the UK edition, and I must say it's the ugliest cover on a book ever :
... I dare everyone to find me an uglier bookcover than this (I would almost find it embarrassing to read in a public place (ALMOST)) ;-)

By the way Mummi, you will need to buy
- Pine Deep 2, because Ghpst road Blues is Pine Deep 1 and Bad Moon Rising is Pine Deep 3
- Pine Deep 2, because Ghpst road Blues is Pine Deep 1 and Bad Moon Rising is Pine Deep 3
Bad Moon Rising is as good as Cujo (my favorite SK)!

It was an enjoyable read, although some parts were hard to get through, dealing with violence against women and rape.

Oh I see that ;-)
Thanks Josiah ;)
I absolutely LOVED the Pine Deep Trilogy. I just discovered Maberry last year, so I am trying to catch up with all his stuff.I just finished Siren. It was scary and sensual all at once. A 4* for me.
I also just finished a short that I really loved:
To Read or Not to Read. 5* from me. This short is currently free!
I just started KIN. Too soon to tell.

Anyway, Seed sounds quite interesting, IMO!

I'll get back to you charlene after I finish Bad Moon Rising and Tor Read, Or Not To Read

Oh, really?! Thank you, Charlene!:)
I finished to read or not to read! 5*
I'm reading James Frey A Million Little Pieces so far its really good I know there are lies But I like it
Oh yes! I wish she chose to "read" the King novel she picked up instead
All done with High Moor, I really enjoyed...I have now started Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, and am not certain what to expect, I'm about 80 pages in, and am intrigued as to where this is going, but I would not say it has me hooked.

The Karen Slaughter GR has listed as an author is the author of several books, none of which I've read -- BUT I will tell you, I'm currently turned on by Denmark's favorite crime writer, Jussi Adler-OlsenThe Keeper of Lost Causes which is truly exciting, and will deserve at least four stars when it's finished - and I can hardly put it down!
