The Pink Room? It's about a leading physicist who attempts to use the science of string theory to bring his daughter back from the dead. Getting rave reviews.

"Fellowship of the Ring" for about the millionth time. I love these books!

The more I learn about science the less I like these types of books.

What I'm reading right now?

"The Foundations of Parasitology" Roberts and Janovy
It's a textbook, not exactly riveting but interesting if you're into biology.


"Creepers" by Morrell
It's a little strained on some of the storylines but overall pretty decent.

Something Blah Blah Titus Crow by Lumley
In a moment of weakness, I picked up yet another Lumley novel at the library. I'm blaming it on my wife, who wanted me to hurry up.

"Team Yankee" by H. Cole

Hadn't read it in years, good war story.

I want to change mine too, but I have 2 problems. 1) Same as you. and 2) don't know what I really want mine to say just yet.

I just started Reserection Dreams by Richard Laymon. The first chapter is really funny for a Laymon book.

Go to your User CP page, and then click on the edit profile link. Scroll down the page a little bit and there should be a field that says "Custom User Text." You can enter whatever you want in there. I think you might have to have a certain number of posts in order to change it though.

Back on topic, I'm reading Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan. I love the Wheel of Time.

Books
 
About to finish "The Abandoned" by Douglas Clegg. A little gorier than his usual work.

As soon as King's new novel, "Cell," is released later this month, I'll be reading that. (Of course he didn't retire!)

I absolutely love Anne Rice. I highly recommend reading the vampire chronicles.

Interview with the Vampire
The Vampire Lestat
The Queen of the Damned
The Tale of the Body Thief
Memnoch the Devil
The Vampire Armand

You might also want to take a look at the lives of the Mayfair Witches.

The Witching Hour
Lasher
Taltos

I am currently reading the classic, "Dracula".

Femme Fatale 01-10-2006 07:25 PM

I am currently reading "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way" by Bruce Campbell. I highly recommend his first book "If Chins Could Kill". Very funny.

Some of my favourite novels though are "Virgin Suicides" by Jeffrey Eugenides, "Invisible Monsters" by Chuck Palahniuk and "Still Life with Woodpecker" by Tom Robbins...just to name a few.

I just found out that my friend got me Interview w/ a vamp 4 X-mas. I told her I wanted to read the book before I saw the movie. I can't belive I still haven't seen the movie, but oh well.

How about the one I just finished last night, a night i had trouble sleeping...

Storming the Gate, The Horrible Discovery of Professor Sims

frogbottomblue 01-21-2006 05:53 AM

mine was:

'Storming the Gate, the Horrible Discovery of Professor Sims.'

talk about intense, the thing has teeth.

Im starting on Eragon, a new book on the best seller's list.

Nightwriter 01-21-2006 06:29 AM

I think I've read every book Anne Rice has written. And I would also recommend the biography that Katherine Ramsland wrote about her called "Prism of the Night." I found it fascinating.

Also agree about "Make Love the Bruce Campbell Way" - I did a review of it on my site a few months ago. Hilarious book.

Bruce was a guest at the Horrorfind Con last year in Baltimore, which I attended. He's just as funny and charming in person as I imagined he would be.

continuing with the narnoa books .. i finished the magicians nephew, and The lion the witch and the wardrobe, now reading The Horse and his Boy

Zero 01-23-2006 08:34 AM

just finished Walter Mosley's The Man in My Basement, which had a slight Silence of the Lambs feel - although its not horror or crime and more like Albert Camus's The Stranger . . . but a cool and politically relevant book IMHO

A Fine Dark Line by Joe R. Lansdale. Very similar to The Bottoms, also by Lansdale, which I prefer, but still a very good read.
