I still need to read Carrion Comfort. Just finished 11/22/63 (re-read), and Bloodstream (Tess Gerritsen), and am now reading Bazaar of Bad Dreams. I guess Carrion Comfort will be next.

I concur!!! My first King I ever read and one of my top ten!!!!!!

[Mattrick]

I didn't care for Desperation. The first half was amazing, the second half not so much.

One more part on my audio book for The Dunwich Horror by H.P. Lovecraft, which I'm enjoying so far.

I finished up The Silkworm by Robert Galbraith, excellent detective book, with black humor. Started Last Call by Tim Powers (have heard he is a good writer). Like it so far, very odd!

I'm two stories into Bazaar of Bad Dreams, and I'm loving it.

I'm also part-way through both Hyperion by Dan Simmons and Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. I'm enjoying both of those as well.

I am in the beginning of Hyperion. In the first story from the Father:

Spoiler:

I can't help but feel like I am re-reading The time machine. The non-gender of humanoids, the lack of good speech, the lack of excitement of visitors.

Just feels like the same story.

currently reading Thomas Harris
Red Dragon was amazingly good, the way the author kept to the point without any embellishments of style was in itself fascinating, there was a flavor of honesty around it, which I enjoyed immensely.
TSotL was good, really really good, probably better than RD (although my heart is with the first book). Loved Starling, who only annoyed me in the movie.
Now have been plodding through Hannibal. Can't help thinking that Harris decided at last to go allLiterature, you know, with psychology, history, all the necessary requisites - and in my opinion wrote a very mediocre thing, having lost everything that was specifically his.
Hope I'll be able to finish it some day.

I hope bears con continue their way through Crichton's books, too.

Finally, finally another book by my 3rd favorite author.
Or maybe 2nd...not really sure.
Love this book.

Reading Dune. I'm having trouble getting into it. I hope it gets better. I had such high expectations for this book.

[frik]

Dune I read many a decade ago - I remember being in awe of this book. I do hope you'll end up being impressed as well.

Just started Robin Hobb's lastest - Fool's Quest. I've read the rest

[jsmcmullen92]

I've been putting Dune off for awhile. I've always been scared that it will not stand up to the standards that everyone puts it at... Let me know what you think when you finish.

Until the Sun Rises by Channing Whitaker. I picked up a copy at a Comic Con last month where he was selling them. Very good so far.

I'm a big sci-fi fan (mostly "golden age," though) and Dune was HUGE back when I was in middle school. A few years ago I picked it up to give it a shot and I swear I kept having to look in the appendix/index/glossary or whatever it was to keep things straight. I'm not an obtuse reader and can generally juggle a number of characters/plots/new concepts, but I kept having to be refreshed on "now who is this guy again?" I guess the story was okay. I don't feel like I wasted my time, but I never felt compelled to read any of the sequels.

Just finished Welcome to Night Vale By Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor and loved it. Weird, quirky, funny, and hard to put down. I listened to one podcast a few years ago, and the book definitely had the same feeling. Re-listened to it this this morning while getting ready for work, and I think I'll be listening to the next one tomorrow

Now I'm on to The Dark Tower comics! Have been looking forward to reading these for awhile and decided to finally just do it. My current plan is to alternate between a book and a TDT story arc. I'm really enjoying the comics so far though, so that plan may not work out...
