Has anybody read The Thursday Murder Club? It's a fun read so far.

Let The Right One In - John Ajvide Lindqvist. Already enjoying it and barely into it. The writing flows well.
When you're done, try Handling the Undead. Not only my favorite of his, but one of my favorites period.
Have you read Harbor Ricky? I have the audiobook of it, was planning to start it soon. I haven't read anything by him yet, but I've had quite a few on my to-read list. I'll have to add the one you mentioned.
No, that's the one I haven't read.
Added to my listQuote:

I'm currently reading The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller.
I'm still doing a reread of the Dark Tower series. I stalled for a bit in the middle of Wizard & Glass (no surprise), but am not into Wolves of the Calla. I am really enjoying this reread. Jake and Eddie just went Todash. :D
Has anyone read Space Team by Barry J Hutchison? I just recently discovered the series and it has been so much fun to read so far.
Currently reading wildly popular series published by Sub Press whose books I can not afford.
I've read the 1st Murderbot Novella and will be starting the second soon and i'm in the middle of reading Pierce Brown's Red Rising.
currently reading Mr. Mercedes (2014) for the 1st time
A good read I thought.Quote:

Day 11 into my absolutely fuckin stupid Covid house arrest. They closed bookstores. WTF. I literally cannot get any books to read. My collection is in storage while I go insane in this 655sf apt. Uggg I wanna read
You should be able to get the kindle app for your computer or phone. I know it's not the same as reading an actual book, but it's something. I honestly love my kindle for that reason. I'm never without a book. Plus there's so many lesser known authors on there that I would have never come across otherwise.
dude just buy a kindle if ya don't have any books and just download some books it's Epub or mobi. well i did finish Mr. Mercedes (2014) i give it 8/10. now i'm reading Killer's Wedge (1959) by Ed McBain the 8th i think? book in the 87th Precinct series
i use Calibre for my Kindle as i still buy books and read both paperback and hard back books but i don't have every book so i download the ones i don't have cause some of them are out of print or hard as hell to find.
Finished Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Great book, fun read.

Just finished Later by Stephen King now I'm onto Shakespeare For Squirrels by Christopher Moore
how was Later? i downloaded and put it onto my Kindle but i haven't started it yet i fully plan on buying it though as i always buy one for me and my brother for X-mas for him
I just started reading The Dark Tower for the very first time as a whole, and probably my last time for some time to come after I just wrapped up my Chronological reread of all of his other novels/short stories/etc. I struggled with how to handle The Gunslinger. At first I thought I'd embrace the cyclic nature of the tale (SPOILER!) and read the original version first, then read the revised version immediately after finishing The Dark Tower; in the end though I decided to read the 2 versions of Gunslinger side by side, a chapter at a time. I'm really enjoying it this way, seeing the additions and changes that he made, and frankly shows how much he's matured as a writer since the publication of the original.
Roland and Jake have just finished their palaver with The Man In Black and are headed into the caves and toward the Fall. I'm getting ready for that blow not once, but twice......or perhaps THIS time Roland won't let it happen....I can hope.
Will begin Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness today, after which I'll finally get to Mountains of Madness Revealed. This is a collection of shorts, released by PS Publishing, edited by Darrell Schweitzer. As it says in the introduction,
"This entire book is a sequel to H.P.Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. All of the stories herein take place after the events in the Lovecraft story...."
It has been awhile since I read anything HPL, so absolutely thrilled to get around to this collection. And for those interested, the book is still available, in both a signed and unsigned edition.
