What Are You Reading?
Island Of The Forbidden by Hunter Shea. When I started it I didn't know it was part of a set. It's really good so now I'm going to have to track down the first two parts lol.
Kealan wrote: "Reading THE PILO FAMILY CIRCUS by Will Elliot."I loved Pilo! (I also found the author's bio to be very interesting and enlightening. He went through a LOT while writing Pilo. To me, that added another whole level to the story.)
So what did you end up thinking of The Martian? Just in general terms, since I'm still reading it.

Ha! I just returned here to say that I read your review. (Thanks for taking the time to post it here, just the same.) That bodes well for me. Even though it is a little too science-y for me at times, I can't help but continue on. I'm rooting for Mark Watney!!
I've just finished The Green Man by Kingsley Amis
It's a very good ghost story, and also incredibly funny. It starts off more Fawlty Towers than Hell House, before darkening the mood considerably.
McCammon! I'm so excited for his new book I can't even tell you. I'm currently reading The Case of Charles Dexter Ward by Lovecraft.
I'm reading Ravenous Ghosts. I really like your introductions to each story, Kealan. Very enlightening!
I just reread Greg McLean and Aaron Sterns' WOLF CREEK: ORIGIN (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...) and was totally blown away. I loved learning about Mick's backstory after seeing the movies, and am a huge fan of Aaron's writing. I'm also curious as to how the process of co-writing a novel like that works--I'm anxious to pick Aaron's brain about that. It was an excellent story, and I highly recommend it to any and all fans of horror fiction.
Hello, Kealan! I just stopped by to let you know that we have a buddy read of KIN going over in the Horror Aficionados group, in case you are interested in seeing how readers react to your work, or maybe if you wanted to stop by and say hey. If not, that's fine too.https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I'm telling you, I think you will LOVE them both, but most especially this one. :)

I just bought these two--received them in the mail last week. (Jon hasn't disappointed me yet with his recommendations) ;)

I should have read this tears ago."What fun! :)
Charlene wrote: "I probably wouldn't be able to until the end of August. :(If that's okay, I would be up for that!"
Works for me. Let me know when you're ready.
