I just finished "Those Across the River" by Christopher Buehlman last night and OMG it scared the crap out of me! Like, nervous to turn off the lights kind of creeped out. I loved it! I haven't read a GOOD scary book in a long time.

What are you reading?

    Just finished American Psycho. I'm starting Lone Survivor tonight. Talk about going from one extreme to the other.

    I'm reading the Lovers by John Connolly. It's one of the Charlie Parker detective series. When I finish that I have the new book by my favourite author - Michael Marshall Smith, it was a birthday present and I'm really looking forward to it :)

    What are you reading?

    Have you read "False Memory" by Dean Koontz????? Seriously gave me anxiety attacks it was so scary. I had to throw the book away just to get it out of my house!

    That's when I was slightly younger. Now I'm reading "Mere Christianity", but not sure if I can say that here.....

    You just reminded me of the episode of Friends where Joey put his copy of The Shining in the freezer because he was scared of it :smile:

    I read before I go to sleep and 'm in the final two of the Baxter series by Karen Kingsbury. I also have a stack on my bedside table with The Help and Lies Women Believe. I'm also reading Made to Crave and Breaking Free. Those are the ones I read when I have time during the day. Made to Crave has really helped me understand my food addiction. :smile:

    That was an awesome book!! I love a good scarey book.

    I just picked up Help so I think that will be my next read, even though I have a shelf full of books I have not read yet :happy:

    I'm reading the Night Huntress books by Jeaniene Frost and the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning (alternating books as I get them from the library ordering system). Both are good light reading involving vampires and other mythical stuff.

    Also listening to the Hunger Games series in the car. I've got a 45 minute commute so this is a great way to pass the time... Anyway, would definitely recommend this series - I'm more than halfway through the 2nd book right now and am so eager to see what happens next!

    The Birth House by (I think) Ami McKay.

    I used to be a Dean Koontz fanatic, but he got TOO dark for me.

    The Help. Love it. Wish I had more time to read it. I want to finish it before I see the movie.
