Celeste and I will be reading THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE by Shirley Jackson. Quite appropriate for Halloween!
Yeah, I was going to read it anyway. So, I'm really glad Celeste brought it up. It is also the selection for Diane Rehm's Reader Review next month:http://thedianerehmshow.org/topic/rea...

Autumn wrote: "Deb will be reading The Bone Collector and I will be reading Elizabeth is Missing!"I am pleased with Autumn's suggestion to read "The Bone Collector" and am enjoying (is that the correct word for the gruesome crimes in this book?) the read thus far.
Update 10/21/2015: I enjoyed my read of The Bone Collector so much that I moved on to the next in the Lincoln Rhyme series, Coffin Dancer. Just about to turn the final pages on this one, too.

Lalla and I will read Kevin O'Brien "Tell Me You're Sorry" starting tomorrow. We had a different one picked out but it wasn't available in her country. That's a bummer...
Finished The Killing LessonsA tad disappointed I must admit

I enjoyed your review Brenda! But, I am sad to hear that you did not enjoy the book as much I would have hoped.

Hi Aaron. We planned on reading unspeakable (I think that's what it's called).. Did you read it? I was a little disappointed with Tell Me You're Sorry but it was enjoyable enough. Is unspeakable better? (If you've read it).I ordered the paperback because I could not buy the kindle one on amazon. :)

We both finished with reading though not with disscussing it.
Emma read it in one go, I needed little bit longer but it had nothing to do with the book.
I really loved this one and I'm going to read the second one for sure (Her Final Breath) I was extremly impressed by this book and if I want to describe why (any more than in my review) I fear I need to include some spoilers - so I won't do it :-)
Susan and I read
Tamara's family has moved from a nice home in the city to a dilapidated home in a small town. The house starts to speak to hear and stranger events start to occur all of which is unexplainable. The clock starts to tick backwards and images of a girl start to reappear and finally the monster. What can Tamara do? Who will believe her? The ending will tell you the answers to your questions. But, Tamara can not. A pleasant and surprising read.
Quote:
Another scream pierces the air and this time it is much closer. Very close indeed. The something that was following her has become many and has surrounded her. Closing in towards her; closer, closer, ever so closer and someone once more is screaming. Very close.
