Understanding Movies (2008) by Louis Giannetti. Simply a great resource to better understand the mechanics of film.

House of Fallen Trees by Gina Renalli

Incredible ghost/haunted house story that keeps you on your toes the entire time. Also has a bit of mystery in it which keeps you guessing. Seems like every time you think you have whats going on figured ouy the story just goes deeper. Great piece of writing and i loved the way it looped claustraphobia, fear, dread, insanity, and reality all within each other leaving your mind twisted as you can only just go along for the ride. You never really get a sence of what might be real or what the house and charaters think they are seeing. Great book and a great tribute to the classic writings like House on Haunted Hill and Turn of the Screw....which it reminded me a lot of. Meaning you can never really tell if one of em is crazy, if they all are crazy, or if its the house thats making them that way.`

Thanks Doc again for yet another great recomendation.

House of Blood

Just finished House of Blood and Queen of Blood by Bryan Smith. Very gory, good story line. Sad that it is finished. I need more now!

I am trading with another author Mark Tufo...Zombie Fallout. Not one for zombie books really, but there are lots of humorous tidbits scattered all through it. If you like zombies, it's good. I am looking for a reviewer here for my book,
The Horror of the Shade if any one is interested.

The Cabinet of Curiosities by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child

Just got into the Pendergast series and love it! I read 'Relic' and skipped the second book ( im borrowing them from a friend and she told me its not a necessity to read the second one so i skipped to the third)

Dewey's Nine Lives by Vicki Myron


the second book in the Dewey books

and



Its very emotional and heartbreaking, its one that at times i want to put down,but want to continue reading at the same time.
