This year I covered William Peter Blatty's "The Exorcist" for my October book club read. I love a good horror novel, of course, so that was a real treat. I would say one of my all time scary favorites that I can (and have) read over and over would be Stephen King's "Dreamcatcher." There's something about the book that keeps me coming back. Whether it's the aliens, the psychic connections or the crazy people, I couldn't tell you. Either way, if you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. You'll be pulling all-nighters like crazy to finish it.(less)

There will also probably be some oldies-but-goodies like "The Great Gatsby" and "Dracula" to help pass the days. Be sure to catch up with my book club at dameanmathews.com to keep up to date on those books, too.(less)

Interesting modern take on a Peter Pan tale. Not fully what one might expect, but plenty of beach bum living and ocean loving scenery. Nice ambiguous ending.

I Was a Teenage Slasher by Stephen Graham Jones
Rate this book
Clear rating
Not my favorite of Jones's, but a good one nonetheless. I like the idea of the slasher as a sort of universe-chosen play by play. Good universe, fun premise, interesting weakness. ...more

All That's Unseen by Emilee Hackney
Rate this book
Clear rating
As a Tazewell, Virginia native, I found this book immensely eye opening. Hackney tells an all-too familiar story, and opens eyes that otherwise people force shut.

Interesting novelization. I like that it provides something of an origin for Mogwai and their evil counterparts, but it's not quite what I expected. Now I need to rematch the movie. ...more

Interesting back rooms style story. Plenty of strangeness. Good twists. Bit of a cliched ending.

I'm a lover of the original film, and have long wanted to see more of a continuation of that line (moreso than what Fright Night 2 gave us). Adding magic into the mix, however, is not exactly what I imagined. I liked the furth
