    Ha! Yeah, that too.


    I have had a couple short books I've been meaning to read for quite a while, so I'm knocking those out first:

    Just finished, THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME, by Mark Haddon

    Currently reading, BEATRICE & VIRGIL, by Yann Martel

    Then I'll get back to King.

    I started reading "Ready Player One" but I was turned off by a two-page atheistic rant early on. To each his own, but it just struck me as being completely out of place. I'm sure I'll give it another try at some point, but I hope the pace picks up soon.

    I recently read "The Big Short" and enjoyed it a bunch.

    I am currently reading an ARC of "Killing Ghost" by Christopher Ransom, due out soon from Cemetary Dance. Very well done so far; reminds me of "John Dies at the End".

    It's pretty entertaining, especially if you're a big fan of video games and pop culture. The only thing that irks me is that it suffers from Harry Potter syndrome, where the novel has no internal logic and the author takes free reign with spamming convenient plot devices to hinder or help the heroes quest as suits his whim. Still, it's only his first novel and the seeds for him to blossom into a fantastic writer are definitely there. A very fast paced read and I'm usually reading large chunks of it at a time. I say check it out.

    Another Moore novel.
    Loved Harvest Moon; from what I've heard, this one's better.

    This book rocked:

    And I just finished this one, too. It was thoroughly enjoyable, if you're into graphic novels:

    Re reading the dark tower series since the books I want to read aren't coming out until the end of the year. It would be nice if when I buy the kindle versions I could choose what covers I wanted.
