I enjoyed Heart Shaped Box but i really liked 20th Century Ghosts. So far Horns is interesting. When i'm done i'll post my review.

20th centery ghost was even better than hart shaped box,that pretty much says it,that was a fuckin good read

j r lonsdale - cold in july

this book was different to what i was expecting.wasnt as gory as i was expecting either.but still a good read,kinda of a dark humor to it,a fun easy read.could have been longer maybe

Just finished The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan. The right mix of smart writing and werewolf fucking, with appearances by vampires too. Highly recommended.

sounds good,never read that author before

Finished Horns by Joe Hill.

I liked it, a lot better then Heart Shaped Box. It's a depressing sad story filled with horrible characters that are there to remind you that there is a devil inside all of us. I recommend it and i hope Hill writes another novel.

Now i'm reading Sleepers Awake by Patrick McNulty

sweet i like books like that,makes you feel better about your own shit life :D

im reading Tim Lebbons "the nature of balance" its just setting up for what looks like will be a good story

Let me know how that is. I have it but haven't gotten around to reading it.

Just finished Pet Sematary and started It. Had to start reading some King again for old times sake haha

tim lebbon .the nature of balance

nature turns bad people start diying and it carrys on from there.dark fantasy cross horror reminded me a bit of clive barker without the extreme sex scenes.maybe a hint of stephen king too.all in all i really enjoyed this book.not amazing but definatly worth checking out.

It again, must be my 20th time reading this, lol. It's my favorite after all.

A Seperate Peace by John Knowles

Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse

Awesome. I have it but haven't read it yet. I'll definitely check it out now.

I started reading The Colorado Kid by Stephen King on Monday and finished it yesterday. A nice little mystery but not for everyone.

I started The Black Train by Edward Lee today.

Mine too. I gotta read that again

i can never understand how people read a book twice

just started caitlin r keirnan - threshhold

That is usually what happens when it is your favorite book.

iv got favorite books but never have read them twice,id rather keep reading new shit,might find something even better

I read new shit all of the time but occasionally I like to go back and do a re-read on something that I really enjoyed and if it happens to be in my favorites list, I'm going to re-read it several times, that's just me. I really don't understand how you don't understand this concept but whatever, it's not my concern.

i know alot of people who read books again,you aint the only one,my girlfriend does too,i just dont get it,probably the same reason people cant understand why i like old black and white horror films.

Because they are just good, lol.

It's more about reliving that experience you felt when reading that book then it is about just reading it again. At least that's how it is for me which is why there are only certain books i will read more then once.

What The Villain said, but also, the experience can change with multiple readings. Why listen to an album twice? Or watch a movie twice? It's the same thing.

not really it takes me many many hours to get through a book.alot of precious hours off my short life

I can empathize with you on this. Haven't read any books, or more precisely novels, twice myself, but I frequently read short stories two or more times as I come across them in anthologies. It's surprising how you can enjoy them all over again especially if you don't recall all the specifics. However I've decided to skip Murray Leinster's "First Contact" if I ever come face to face with it again as the punch has now lost its fizz. Poems, too, I like to read over and over. There are some books I'd like to read again, books I read thirty, forty years ago just to see if they're as good as I remember them.

now that you say that i have read some short stories again out of the books of blood,those are the best short stories iv ever read

The main reason I started my re-read of IT this time is because of the news that IT is going to the big screen. There are some major parts that got left out of the miniseries and I want to see if was a good reason for it, would it be that difficult to add those parts. It's geeky, I know, but then I really don't give a sh*t, lol.

Maybe I'm gonna have to give BOOKS OF BLOOD a try. If they're that good I might make it one of my Halloween reads when October returns.

they are awsome man,that was when barker was writing his best weird fuct up shit.give you an example of one of the stories...a guy gets a hormone viagra type drug tested on him,it goes wrong and he becomes a sex freak raping any man or lady in his way,has to fuck a crack in a brick wall to keep him satisfied while hes looking for his next fuck..

Sounds like a dark alley in the scenic route through October country. Gonna put in on my Halloween TBR pile for sure. Thanks.

I'm with Villain and fortunato I've read several Clive Barker books twice or more same with some of my other favourite books. I've also read HP Lovecraft short stories and also some poetry repeatedly depends on my mood I suppose.

Right now I'm reading an ebook of IT-I can't read paperbacks anymore without my specs and they give me a headache plus I couldn't pass an optical examination.

The Light Fantastic- Terry Pratchett
The City & The City- China Miéville
Political Thought of Plato and Aristotle- E. Barker

never read Gabrielle wittkop,but just the name of that book makes it sound like itd be good

The Book of Guilt by Kym Lloyd. I'm not really enjoying it though, so I might switch to another soon.

ill have to check it out

The Postmortal by Drew Magary

Finished The Black Train by Edward Lee. It's filled with some gruesome imagery and a rich backstory but that's it. The story never goes anywhere and there's no conflict. Just gruesome imagery and a backstory.

Started reading The Hollower by Mary San Giovanni. Liking it so far.

Caitlin R Kernin THRESHHOLD
