What's that
Her biggest seller was Flowers in The attic.. Her books were all kind of Dark/Gothic fiction. Someone else writes under the name now and they kinda went down hill but the books written by her were great.
Oh
You're so me, when are we hanging
I've been saying this for like a year now lol!! Just say when!

I highly recommend reading "Rasselas" by Samuel Johnson. Its quite short, but replete with devastatingly accurate insights into the mysteries of happiness. I have yet to find a single sentence that was not masterfully crafted. I read the book about once a year for the past 23 years.1

Doesn't Stephen King just wrote as Richard Bachman sometimes?
I swear I've been under that impression for like ever.
In fact that's the only reason I've read some of Bachmans books.

He looks a lot like James Caan in Misery.

Thanks! Will give it another shot once I finish the Steinbeck book I'm reading What are you currently reading?
I just finished the goldfinch, which took me a while to get into, but i ended up really loving it. i'm reading an anthology of science fiction stories edited by Harlan Ellison right now, it's from the 60's and it's called "dangerous visions" there are some really good stories and some laughable ones, but overall i'm enjoying it.3 -

I read pretty much everything - crime, Jane Austen, survival stories, biographies, whatever my mood tells me to read. I currently re-read The Godfather.
Those who like something haunting - try "The Road" (you might know the movie with the same title).
i had to finish the road in one sitting because i was too scared to stop.3 -
OMG this thread has just pushed my book list over the edge. I'm in love.4

I am reading Devil in the White City. Very well written--read it before it gets turned into a movie.2

Currently reading "Where'd you Go, Bernadette" and I'm waiting for it to pick up. Saw it on a list of books that will hook you in the first sentence.1

Huge geeky book addict right here! Reading "Queen of the Night" by Alexander Chee at the moment, with a growing pile of "to-reads" on the nightstand. I'm also a huge lover of fanfiction, mostly "Star Trek: TNG" or "Doctor Who". I tend to alternate between paper books, the Kindle, and fanfic. Love to write as well. Hope to have chats with all y'all!1

I just got an email to check and I've got $15.23. lol. Same thing with Ticketmaster if you are concert goers. Some class action suit filed against them in 2003 just paid out like yesterday. You might have ticket vouchers in your account.
I donno, it helped me buy books lol!
