Lisa Tuttle: The Dead Hours of Night"
I love those Valancourt book covers! Was that one nominated for a Stoker, Christopher?



I haven't heard much about that one, Bruce. Is it good?
I'm currently reading Do Not Weep For Me, which is a sequel to The Moore House

i believe it's currently on the "long list," so not officially nominated yet. Should be.

Oh, that's right! Long listed, yes.
I'm starting


Reading about the Winchester Mystery House currently, but there are very interesting stories so far!




I am planning on reading that series after the Jack Daniels series. Love Konrath! I have laughed my way through most of the Jack Daniels series. :)

If you like Jack Daniels you'll also like the rest of Konrath's books. So many of the characters turn up all over the place, it gets to be like visiting old friends. And the humor helps to offset some of the really disturbing scenes.
I've actually seen in reviews that some people don't like Harry McGlade. Over time, he's become one of my fav characters. Granted, most of the time I'm either laughing myself silly at something he's said or cringing with my hand over my face at something he's done (but still laughing). I get the feeling he's Konrath's fav character to write.

I totally agree with you about Harry! I love Harry! Yeah I have seen that too in reviews that people don't seem to like him, but he is definitely one of my favorite characters in the Jack Daniels series. Harry is #1 - Jack is #2 and Herb is #3. I can laugh my ass off all day with Harry. He can definitely break up the tensions and suspense in this series.
Harry has his own book too which I want to read. This is the book that stars Harry: Babe on Board

It's not horror, but I'm enjoying this one all the same! I plan on reading this when done, though: This Thing Between Us
