I'm not real fond of the mascara wearing little suckers, Charlene.I prefer "boogyman". ;)
Well, at least boogymen don't sparkle! LOLI really can't picture you as sparkling...other than your wit, of course!
I am a morbid sonovavich. :POf course!
Kealan I looked at KIN and I must say, while I am not a fan of cannibal stories, your take on it intrigues me a lot because it has more to do with the psyche than the bloodshed. That is fascinating, especially since I can relate to fantasies of revenge (I was good; didn't break any laws, I swear!).
Sharon,I just started it and I'm hooked!Have you been playing "DeathWish" again? :P
I'm not a fan of the subgenre either, for exactly those reasons.That being said, so far KIN is proving to be everything the subgenre, and horror in general, could be and should be.
Bloody brilliant.
End of unsolicited advertisement. ;)
No, Kealan, thank you!!!KIN is not only living up to the hype, it deserves more!
It definitely is ramping up my list of to-be-read!
Be that way.Miss the next Bram Stoker Award winner.
See if I care.
So there!
Hey, I can't read a book a day like you, my friend. Unfortunately reading has been relegated to an hour before bedtime nightly and some nights I am too tired (and sometimes a little too tipsy) to get far before I pass out. Therefore, I am a book a month reader, if not longer, depending on the novel! We shall see how quickly The Five goes....
You could free up another couple, or half a dozen, hours if you cut back on the booze and frat boys...... :P
Well now, where's the fun in that?!
It's college, not "Jersey Shore", for one thing.
Well I don't know what college YOU went to, but isn't that part of the total experience? Of course the fact that I am 43 might not work in my favor, but hey, if ya got it, flaunt it! LOL
Yes, you do. None.And, no, it isn't.
Your brain can't afford the constant damage at your age.
Go find a 60 year old with a pension and a Viagra scrip. :P
Ok, the sales pitch worked and recluse's recommendation topped it off. Sold!
@recluse-ppllllbbtttttt!Spoil sport.You're just jealous. XD
I always try to link up to the book from here at GR. Someone told me that this is what keeps GR funded.
But I can't find it here yet? Heading back to Ammy.
@Sharon-Of a chance at higher education? Yes.Of being fondled by undocumented foreign exchange students and Occupy Wall Street loonies, not so much.:P
I had to pick up the second Turtle Boy while I was there. I'm looking forward to reading both. In fact, I'm heading off to finish Siren now.
All the Timmy Quinn books are excellent, Charlene.
You got it, Kemosabe!Done and done!
Kealan, you keep writing like that, I will gladly follow you into the fires of Hell wearing a gasoline raincoat. ;)
2 reviews up at Ammy already, Recluse's and one other. Both 5 stars. Nice!
I just started it, literally like 2 pages in and I like it already. Very nice description of the tree, BTW. I could picture it perfectly.
Ok, Kealan, so I'm reading KIN and then all of a sudden, REBIRTH!Freaked me out completely. *applauding*
He is a talented little bugger.I say we keep him.
Charlene, go get his room ready.
I'll get the sledgehammer.....
Ready....you got the masking tape and the ball gag?
I finished KIN last night and LOVED it.Review is forthcoming, (eventually)!
Thanks for some great reading, Kealan!
I just did a book comparison against Kealan. We have 96 books in common and our ratings almost mirror each other.
It's the closest to my shelf I've seen. You can find out weird things on this site. : )
I'm just fascinated with weird...stuff, Rec!You know this. : )
She'll be sifting through your underwear drawer next.Or the one's you're wearing.... :P
ROFL Kealan! I hope you know I'm just joking...mostly. : )
I usually get the cast iron pan across the temple. I kinda like the sound it makes.
Famous last words from a guy who's gonna be found handcuffed naked to a radiator....
What's a DOVE SEASON?Can't wait for NEMESIS!
If I yell KIN one more time in public, they're gonna lock me up...
Newsletter? I will sign up as soon as I find it!Lansdale-ish?
By who-ish?
You got it, Kemosabe!Done!
Hey, did you ever finish reading THE BLACK DAHLIA?
A fellow multi-tasking reader!My family thinks I'm insane when they see me alternate books.
And thanks for signing me up for the newsletter, Kealan!
I really appreciate it!
*perk* Nemesis? All right! Something to look forward to.I'm going to email you too, Kealan. Hope that's ok.
