I just finished ‘The Listener’ by Robert McCamman. My oh my was this a great book. Such an enjoyable read. Even though it was a different story, it had that Boy’s Life feel to it. This one was a 5 star for me. If you like McCammon, I highly recommend. If you’ve never read McCammon, give it a shot.

Coincidentally I read a few samples of his today and knew immediately he’s an author I’ll enjoy. Planning on starting with either Swan Song or the Matthew Corbett series.

I always recommend Boy’s Life as a first read for McCammon. Now, it’s that or The Listener.

Interesting. Well, I’m not dead set on starting with the ones I mentioned so I’ll give Boy’s Life a read first. Thanks.

The Devil in the White City

Read this last summer. Really enjoyed the portions about H.H. Holmes. He was a scary guy. Can't believe he was able to get away with everything he did.

Looking for a GREAT read.... something that someone would love to show me. I was begged last night to read Into Thin Air but that will take a few days... thanks all.

The Bird Box - Malerman
White and Other Tales of Ruin - Tim Lebbon. Similar to stories in Night Shift.
Clive Barker - The Hellbound Heart

If you're a fan of short stories and novellas, check out Kealan Patrick Burke, John R. Little, Brian Hodge and Tom Piccirilli. They've all published with CD and the e-books are dirt cheap.

Sci-fi/Fantasy: Really anything by Brandon Sanderson. I would start with Mistborn or Elantris
Horror: Horns, Joe Hill
Quick fun read: Ready Player One, Ernest Cline
Graphic Novel: Locke and Key, Hill or From Hell, Alan Moore

[TravelinJack]

I second Bird Box, great short read. Same with RPO, a fun read as well.

I really enjoyed Into Thin Air. I'll third Bird Box. And recommend A Headfull of Ghosts if you have yet to read that one.

Finally got ahold of the audiobook of Sleeping Beauties from the library. I attempted to start to read it but struggled a bit so decided to wait for the audio version. Not really a fan of the narrator they chose, but she's not horrible so I can deal with that. The story however, is moving so slowly, and there's so many people to keep track of. And I'm not really feeling any connection with any of them yet, which is kinda weird for a King book. I'm a little more than a third of the way through,

Spoiler:

and there's still a ton of women awake? Based on the synopsis I was thinking they'd be wiped out from the get go, but I guess not.

I really hope the story picks up soon.

Scream Quietly: The Best of Charles L. Grant. My first experience with this author and I can’t put it down.

[WeDealInLead]

Grant is a master. Check out his Oxrun novels.

This was a drag of a story for me. Curious what you think when you finish it.

I have a pretty strong feeling that I'm not gonna be a fan unless the book drastically changes. And the premise sounded so intriguing to me. It's a bit of a letdown so far.

That’s up next! Maybe I just haven’t been paying attention or looking in the right places but I’m surprised to not see his name mentioned along with the greats like King more often. I hear he’s always been very underrated, but I’m just surprised by how much.

Also, I really enjoyed the first Matthew Corbett book.

Haha will do. Not too pleased with the rest of the Corbett books or just haven’t read them?

I just didn't get around to them yet. They're on my mental to-read list though.

Gotta add Listener to that mental list! Maybe even on the short list. Why? Because... Snootch to the Nootch! Need I say more?

Can you imagine them popping up out of nowhere in a serious book? haha

Haha it would earn an extra star if I was book critic.
