I’m working my way through Dead Sea by Tim Curran, maybe 25% in. So far I like it but there are times when I feel like it’s dragging a bit.

Also listening to the audiobook for Let Me In by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Almost finished and have been really enjoying it.

Rereading “The Haunter of the Dark” by H. P. Lovecraft today. And soon I hope, the rest of his Cthulhu stories.

Lovecraft is excellent. My favorites of his are “The Shadow Out of Time” and “Dream Quest of Unkown Kadath”.

I just finished “The Shadow out of Time”. Right after! It was so good. I think, “The Dreams in the Witch House” & “The Thing on the Doorstep” & “The Color Out of Space” are maybe my favorites. I say maybe because I often find that whichever one I’m reading is my favorite.

Joe Hill’s Full Throttle. It’s a book of short stories and I find they’re just the right length.

Really enjoying it and some of the stories are pretty compelling.

I think Faun may have been my favorite in that collection.

Almost done with Adam Nevill’s No One Gets Out Alive. Does it go without saying that the book is better than the movie? Movie is hardly anything like the book anyway. Recommended for those into supernatural stuff.

Just finished Last Days and really loved it. I’ll add this to my TBR.

I’m near the end of The Ruins by Scott Smith. I am not enjoying it although it is enthralling and dreadful. I feel bad for everyone and they do such foolish things. The “villain” is terrible and relentless. I can’t not finish but it is NOT a fun read. Just misery.

I’ve been on a Stephen Graham Jones kick. I read “Only Good Indians” last month and am finishing up “Mongrels” right now. OGI is great I def recommend it
