That guy and his snow and dogs... I love dogs don't get me wrong, White Fang and Call of the Wild were my life when I was in middle school when we had to read the later for class, but you'd think the formula would get stale after a while... I'll be damned if I don't want to read them now though. Wish I remembered where my copies were now. 8(

Love that one. One of Keene's best

Witchcraft - storytelling through music
 

Actually, listening to it! :D

THE PSYCHOTRONIC ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FILM-MIchael Weldon. Was entranced when I first saw this in early 1984 and told my fiancée (Mrs FD) that "...I simply MUST have that volume!". She got it for me that Easter and I read it cover to cover, checking off the films I had seen and lending it out expecting those to do the same. So, with the exception of my paperback of Bob Greene's BILLION DOLLAR BABY, TPEOF is without the most dog eared book I have, all but falling apart::sad::.
However, last week, my ::sad:: turned into a big ::big grin:: as my daughter got me a new, slightly used copy for my birthday. What a wonderful girl!

Dracula Reigns by Jackson Stein

THE BETSY (1972)-Harold Robbins. The vast majority of Robbin's books involve money, big business and hypermasculine protagonists whose bedroom exploits are the sure answer to every woman's hopes and dream.
This is about the auto business and features not one, but two alpha males. Junky, to be sure, but a quick read, if nothing else. Pretty spicy stuff when I was a teen, particularly a scene involving Alpha Male #1 and a French dressmaker::shocked::.

The Body Snatchers by Jack Finney and Books of Blood Volume One by Clive Barker. I'm currently on the story, Midnight Meat Train. They are both good so far.

I'm thinking of reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, next. I tried reading it before and got halfway through Chapter One before caving and going back to the beginning. I have trouble reading books because I always read and reread if I'm unsure if I got all the information. I have to picture everything perfectly and I'm always looking words up in the dictionary. I use to love reading and I still do but it's become a chore since I read Misery by Stephen King in the 12th grade.

I found Brave New World a little overrated.

Is that a knock on Misery or a compliment? Just not sure with how you wrote it

Oh no, absolutely not. I love Misery. That's my favorite Stephen King novel. It use to be Carrie but Misery took it's placed after I read it in the 12th grade. It was a chore because I was going back and reading and reread, and opening a dictionary every five seconds. This was before smartphones where you could look up a word in two seconds or Kindle where you could tap the word and the definition appears.

I got a vintage paperback copy of Call of the Wild/Wild Fang with the price 45 cents printed on the cover. It looks like those old pulp novels. I have a few pulp novels, Nothing Lasts Forever by Roderick Thorpe and Out of the Dark by Ursula Curtiss. I have to sit down and read them. I got halfway through Chapter One of Call of the Wild and stopped. I want to pick it up again. I'd also like to read other anthropomorphic books like The Fox and the Hound by Daniel P. Mannix, Watership Down by Richard Adams, and The Animals of Farthing Wood series by Colin Dann.

Oh ok. I loved Misery. 'It' is still my favorite of his though

I'm still reading IT. It's a good book. I'm just past the Stanley Uris scene at the beginning of the book. Oh, I've also read Cujo, too. I was devastated by Cujo, let me just say that.

DEADRUSH-Yvonne Navarro. Pretty good novel about what could be described as succubus reanimators. Well written .

I loved Cujo

I looked up the book Deadrush. I'm a stickler for good cover art.

Cujo is a classic. The movie is good, but nowhere near as good as the book. I heard that Cujo was King fans least favorite books of all. I loved it despite being devastated by it.

Really? That surprises me. Theres been plenty others of his i didnt like but i really enjoyed Cujo. It was depressing and rough but a good read.

Right Now I'm reading "Burning Chrome" by William Gibson, and "Slipping" by Lauren Beukes. Both are fantastic collections of short fiction that I would highly recommend.

Finished Body Rides by Richard Laymon during the down period. Now im reading The Deep by Nick Cutter

The Deeds of Beowolf.

A bio of George Lucas that just came out. Interesting, but Lucas has to be THE gloomiest Gus ever...even I'm not so moody. Good info on the STAR WARS/INDIANA JONES films.

Guess money can't buy happiness.

I recently read Rue Morgue Magazine's Authorized Phantasm Film Companion, by John Bowen and I loved every word and picture.

Napoleon's. Art Of War. (Again)

EARTHBOUND- Richard Matheson

DANSE MACABRE_Stephen King

WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN

How was Body Rides? I read Laymon's Woods are Dark and fell in love with his writing style, but haven't been able to get a hold of another one of his books yet.

I actually didn't like The Woods are Dark but Body Rides is really good. Likeable characters, an interesting story, and like all Laymons books you never know where the story is gonna go. My favorite from him is The Traveling Vampire Show

The Bazaar of Bad Dreams

Stephen King

The Store by Bentley Little for the 10th time::big grin:: A fun book :)

I don't really care for all of Bentley Little's work but I really enjoy The Store, The Walking, The Town, The Mailman and University.

Any Bentley Little fans here?

DARKLY DREAMING DEXTER-Jeff Lindsay. This helped to launch the TV series...so far, pretty good.

Golem by Edward Lee

I'm liking it so far. Very graphic and intense!

Yeah I like readin' me some Bentley Little....just started in on D.Koontz's The Mask.....

Yo it's National Library Week this week Y'all....

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY READ MORE HORROR

DIFFERENT SEASONS-Stephen King. One of my favorites by him with "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption", "The Body" and especially "Apt Pupil" being top notch.

I can get behind that, but what do Library's do to celebrate? Always up for buying more books I'll never read!

Tell me about Roiff....It's a tiny little library in my town here, and only has a small selection of Horror Literature.....the librarians here are always orderin' the new Danielle Steel or other similar pap...There was an option to Inter-Library Loan books from other libraries but you could only have two and you had to pay also...::mad::

Took me a few years of pushin' for change to get my library to join a network of other libraries...now the Inter-Library Loan here is free and you can check out up to 30 books!

Generally During National Library Week you can get your overdue fees waived.

Once a Librarian here said somethin' to me like "Who even reads stuff like this?" when I was checkin' out some horror books. ::big grin::

DEARLY DEVOTED DEXTER-Jeff Lindsay

The Long Walk by Stephen King (as Richard Bachman)

Never read any of his Bachman stuff. Just started this, but it's a great concept and seems pretty solid so far.

I love that story!
