Stephen King Fans discussion

Started with Bad Things by Michael Marshall. I am one-third into the book & it is pretty interesting so far.

Annie wrote: "I'm just starting NYPD Red by James Patterson."

I liked that book. I pictured the two main characters as Castle and Beckett from the tv show.

I find James Patterson very easy to read.

I'm about halfway through Joyland. Phenomenal so far!

Almost finished and absolutely loving Eleanor & Park.

Just Finished The Taint (look for a review soon.) Got one more story to go "Toes Up." Just getting into Celtic Blood, and giving away my novel Alicia's Sin on Amazon for free (for 2 more days.) Try it.

Finished up A Christmas Carol, and started Doctor Sleep. It's way past time I did.

Just finished Gone Missing and started Mimi :)

I've done it the other way round, having read Doctor Sleep upon release and now rereading A Christmas Carol in the lead up to the 25th. :D

^That's probably what I should have done but I didn't trust myself to finish it in time.

Reading Just after Sunset at the moment. Also reading a classic (Tenant of Wildfell Hall.)

Reading Blink and Wheel of Time.

Starting

Identical by Ellen Hopkins.

Thinking of starting Flawless. Can't wait to start Firestarter on the 1st with Kathryn :D

Dead Man's Walk by Larry McMurtry

Just started Legend by Mari Lu. Thanks to Santa I got the shining so i can read that and Doctor Sleep!

Nice work Santa! You must have been a nice boy this year Cam! :D

lol! Yeah finally made the grade!!!

In Dubious Battle by John Steinbeck

Reading The Wolves of Midwinter, , can't really get into it, I'll give it a bit longer and see what happens...

I've been on a murder mystery kick lately, so I just finished "Dark Places" by Gillian Flynn and have decided to go a bit darker for my next one. I've just started "Dark Hollow" by John Connolly. I read "Every Dead Thing" awhile ago and it bothered me enough that I've waited two years to start the next one here. I've got to be in the mood for murder and mayhem.

If you like Mystery and horror, I suggest Falling Angel. It's especially dark :)

Still Life
I am currently reading Still Life by Joy Fielding and it's amazing

The Hobbit

Thanks, K.L. That sounds right up my alley! I never knew that the movie "Angel Heart" was based on a novel. This is going in the "To Read" pile.

I'm reading House of Leaves from Mark Z. Danielewski. Interesting read so far.

I am about to start with The Dark Half .

Started Firestarter yesterday and I'm loving it so far!

The Green Mile and Black House by Stephen King, and A Storm of Swords: Blood and Gold by George R.R Martin and War and Peace by Tolstoy.

I thought Firestarter was great when I read it. Hope you both enjoy!

I've been wanting to read it for the longest time ,and it's impossible to find it :(

Firestarter was a great sci-fi book & I would go as far as saying it is one of King's best. It has a much tighter plot than most other King books, hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I have read almost everything Crichton had written & I found Congo to be one of his average books. It sets up a great premise but its ending is a bit of a letdown. Hope you enjoy it.

Joyland. Finally! Never have I waited so long to read a King novel.

reading jo nesbo nemesis and its really good so far

I am glad to hear it is more sci-fi. I really loved The Dead Zone, so hearing this makes me extra excited to read Firestarter. :)

"Haha Lucy, you certainly have quite a bit on the go!"

I always do :)
And Adam, I really want to read that, and Dr Sleep!

//Also, I don't know how to do quotes...//

Everything's Eventual: 14 Dark Tales-love it so far.

Lord of the flies. Great book! I wish I had more time..

Sarah, that's on my list for this year, and Kalina, that is one of my favourite books!

The Dead Zone is my favorite King book so glad to know you enjoyed it. If you like that maybe you would enjoy Firestarter too.

Trying to finish The Passage so I can read Joyland :) then hopefully onto Dr. Sleep.

Insomnia, then Desperation, then Regulators, then Black House, then, finally, I can let myself finish the dark tower

not sure if following this was the best thing for my sanity

Joylands next for me after the monstrously sized Luminaries. The longest wait for an SK novel would have to go to Wizard & Glass and then Wolves of the Calla though. ;)
