What are you reading?
I liked the ending of the cellar I just can't wait to read the next one and see what comes next.

I have had a few Tim Curran books on my Kindle for awhile now and i'm glad i have finally gotten to read him.His description of antarctica and the isolation are brilliant and i'll definitely be reading more from him.

Orgy of Souls
this one is a novella but it is so good. I see why this is one of his top selling books.

Scratch.
Scratch is still on my list. The clickers books are good but not my favorites by Brian Keene, I haven't read any of Gonzalez 's novels either.

I am reading Edge of Dark Water and it is very good. I am about to start island and Floating Staircase
Skin Medicine RULED. I gave it 4.5*.I also just read The Hoard. It also RULED!
I'm now reading They Thirst.
Im reading like 6 books right now..lol. Just picked up The Shadow of the Wind and I cant put it down. Its such a great story. I cant help but be pulled into it.
It gets way more bizarre as you go. I barely finished it, when you finish let me know what you thought.
That's what I have heard. That it is more of a murder mystery with just a tiny littly bit of ghost story. I have already bought it so I will read it eventually but not right away.
That's too bad you didn't like The Rising Justin.I think it's one of Keene's best.I didn't really like the ending,but for a zombie book i thought it was quite original.I'm almost done with Sorcerer and it's very very good.
I finished They Thirst by Robert McCammon. It was sort of like Salem's Lot except it took place in LA and there were LOTS more vampires. 4 starsI read Virginia Creeper and thought it was decent, but had a lot of misspelled words and misplaced apostrophes. 3 stars
I just re-read Frankenstein. I didn't like it as much this time.
I just started Dennis Lehane's new book Live by Night. I'm pretty psyched. Boston, mob, 1920's. It seems to have it all. : )
I was one page into Puppet Graveyard
When I got an email from lendel saying I have been loaned
Teratologist so I am about to start that.

My daughter has talked me into trying two new ones: The Umbrella Conspiracy
(I love the games and have enjoyed most of the movies) and The First Days
.
I missed out on that one, didn't get sighned up in time for the release. I have alot to catch up on anyway though. Let me know how it is and maybe I will check it out later. I'm loving puppet graveyard but I knew I would, Tim curran is one of my top authors.
I'm on a old classic kick at the moment.I just finished the excellent A Stir of Echoes and now onto Fevre Dream.
I just started Trinity
after this if I have time before December's group read I will most likely start

William, I remember Fevre Dream being one of my favorite books when I was a teen. I wonder how well it would hold up now? I might have to re-read that one.
I'm enjoying it Charlene.The pace is a little slower to what I've been reading lately but I'm loving all the history and I'm also getting to learn all about steamboats.lol.If you decide to re-read it let me know what you think.
Have you ever read his story The Sandkings? I ran across it in a collection years ago, and to this day it remains my favorite.
This is the first book I've read by him.I'll need to check it out,Thanks.Being years ago i take it you won't remember which collection it was?
I just ran it through Amazon and it looks like it has been collected all over the place.http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_...
I managed to find it here http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Reel-Stuf... some great looking stories here.Thanks again.

Forgot about this. I gave it 4 stars, the ending left me wanting more though..."
I quite liked the ending,there were a few twists i didn't see coming and i thought the abrupt ending set it up nicely for the sequel.I have yet to read Travelling Vampire or Dark Mountain but i also liked The Stake and along with One Rainy Night and Island are my favourites so far.
