Re-reading Danse Macabre, by Stephen King. Fantastic non fiction book about the horror genre.

Books I'm currently reading
Can't read just one! Going back and forth from "The Midnight Tour" by Richard Laymon and "Midnight Graffiti" edited by Jessica Horsting and James Van Hise...

Great horror culture review from 1950s to 1970s - wish King would write a follow-up to Danse Macabre that covers 1980s to 2000s...

You horror book readers are inspiring!
I'm gratified to see so many horror fiction readers and your varied reading! I'd love if some of you would post at my Facebook Community Page, "Horror Reads" (http://www.facebook.com/?ref=hp#!/pa...50289771707654). This is a newish page (created May 2011) with only 83 followers at the present, but you folks are welcome to post your favorite passages from your latest/favorite horror reads! (*spoiler alert* be kind, don't give away major plot points, please!)
Again, great to discover your forum posts, this made my week... |

Reading a few books to prep for my first year of college in September:
Shot by Shot, by Steven D. Katz In the Blink of an Eye, by Walter Murch On Directing, by David Mamet. |
Chuck Palahniuk's Haunted
http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kt...ouh8o1_400.jpg I keep going back-and-forth on this one...some of the stories are nothing short of brilliant, but there's also a lot of really mediocre stuff. When its good, its really good, but when its not it can be a bit painful. Still, excited to see where it goes. And not sure if I've posted about it before, but I really want to toss out a recommendation for Nathan Sellyn's Indigenous Beasts. Collection of short stories, and man is it great. His writing has this great balance of apathy and brutality...simple writing about the complexities of humanity, particularly the darker side. Really, really engrossing stuff. If you can track it down, I think a lot of you would find a lot to like in this one: http://photo.goodreads.com/books/118...5l/1451456.jpg |
The Survivor by James Herbert
