What are your reading?

I will start by adding what I plan to read this month. I have high hope for at least 2 books:
Bloodstone by Nate Kenyon
and Sparrow Rock by Nate Kenyon.

Just finished Ghosts of Rosewood Asylum

currently reading....

HI I'm Karen and I am reading so far loving it

Hi! I'm reading Ghost story by Peter Straub and Suffer the Children by John Saul :)

@Sophia How is The Haunted?

@Karen I have that on my next buy list. LOVE King!

@Sasa I think I have read one book by John Saul a long time again - long. I have to look into him again.

Hope your all having a great day! =)

@Mary: I recommend you http://www.goodreads.com/series/40437... I really loved that series :)
And btw, I love King too :)

I just stalled out 410 pages into Dante's The Divine Comedy...which reads much like horror. Also recently finished Kafka's The Metamorphosis, which is chilling in its own way.

That one intrigues me, Karen.

I'm currently reading:



and not enjoying the killers

OK, I just started Bloodstone =)

I just finished proofing Cemetery Club by J.G. Faherty and I'm almost finished with Ghosts of Rosewood Asylum by Stephen Prosapio.

Cemetery Club was great...but kinda gross sometimes :-). Ghosts is kinda freaking me out. Of course, I'm reading it right before I go to sleep. Last night, I was right in the middle of an intense scene and my Kindle battery died. Eeep!

:-)

Sasa -I read and most of John Saul back in the '70's and really enjoyed them. I went off Stephen King for a bit after which I really didn't enjoy, the ending let it down big time. I'm thrilled though that with he's definately back on form!

@Karen: I didn't enjoy Cell that much either.. I guess he wasn't in his best form while writing it. I'm looking forward to reading 11/22/63 a lot! Can't wait! :)

I actually liked CELL, but I wasn't thrilled with the ending or some aspects to the "zombies"

I'm going to dive into when I've fininshed 11/22/63 as I've heard good things about it. Anyone read it? I'd value any opinions

@Karen I haven't read it. Let me know how it is.

I am reading and loving it.

I have on my shelves...I hope to get to it soon.

I will be starting Grave's End: A True Ghost Story later today

I've read Under the Dome and really enjoyed it. Very fast-paced and full of action and suspense. The characters are OK, but a bit flat. It's more action than character development this time. You don't see that very much in King's stories. ;)

Thanks Marco, I'm looking forward to reading it now

Karen wrote: "HI I'm Karen and I am reading so far loving it"

I think I may pick this up just saw it at the crackhouse now. I think i may have to quickly run downstairs before someone snags it.

I just finished now I think I will be going for next. Or maybe Koontz. I am undecided and have several book tours going on. Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I just finished . Great story!
Next up:

Oooo Marco, The Darkest Rooms sounds really good! I think I am going to get that one!

It's Johan Theorin's second book about mysterious events on the Swedish island Oland. The first book is
, but you can read The Darkest Room without reading EFTD! Both books are great! Have fun!

I've got EFTD for Christmas and I can't wait to read it :)

I'm currently reading and so far so good. :D

Hey! Nice to meet you all... I am also a King fan. I have read many of his books and short stories. If you want something to take up your time, I recommend reading The Dark Tower series. It is incredible, and spans many years of King's writing career. I am currently reading a book titled The Supernaturals a Ghost Story by David L. Coleman The Supernaturals So far it is good, but I just started it, so we'll see. ;-) I recently read a book Titled The dark Dividing by Sarah Rayne. A Dark Dividing This book was awesome and very creepy...

How do you get the book covers to show in your posts?

When you're commenting click on book/author (at the top of the box)then select book cover, then type in the title of the book, a list of books will appear, click on the one you want. it won't show as a book cover until you post your comment

Damn girl. You're making me blush.

I am currently reading . It is about werewolves. Normally I am not a big werewolf fan, but it has gotten such good reviews I wanted to check it out.
