What do you think of it so far? I'm a fan of Kerouac's stuff, if you like On the Road, check out Big Sur and Dr. Sax.

Little over halfway through, and really enjoying it. Makes me wish I could just pack up and go somewhere, heh.

The Hellbound Heart- Clive Barker

I looked for it everywhere after I saw Hellraiser but I could never find it, until about a week ago. I cracked it open then had it stolen by my girlfriend.....

Swan Song by Robert R McCammon. Great story; very much like The Stand if there was no actual theology involved and there was a nuclear war instead of superflu.

Night Visions, Night Voices: Lair of the Hidden Gods, Vol. 1 – The first volume of an anthology of Japanese Lovecraft mythos stories. Great concept, but so far the execution is iffy. The first “short” (120 pages!) was terrible – and it was by the series’ editor. The second was more promising, though, so I hold out hope.

I think It's a lot better than the Shining actually. Salem's Lot and the Stand are too.
