    Up next, is The Two Sams by Glen Hershberg. Shouldn't be a long read here at all, very much liking what I've read up until now.
    The Two Sams is an amazing collection. Horror in a different vein than say Lansdale or King. A little more melancholy. Hirshberg is one of my favorites and keeps rising with every new story I read. Why he isn't selling millions of copies like King is beyond me.

      I never noticed that! Good eye! Ghost Story is in the top 3 of my all-time favorite horror books. I've been meaning to revisit it if I could ever get my TBR list knocked down a little!

        I'm starting on Ghost Story tonight. I received it last week, but wanted to read I'm not Sam first.

          I have not had much reading time lately but I am really enjoying Double Feature!

            The Northern Star: The Beginning by Mike Gullickson surprised me. I'm not a tech-thriller kinda reader, but some very complex ideas were rendered so that, even if I didn't fully understand them, I didn't feel at a loss as the story went on. It was exciting and graphic, though it suffered from poor character development.

            Stage Whispers, by Kealn Patrick Burke will be next. It's time for me to find out what everybody is talking about with Timothy Quinn.

                I'll be putting down Ghost Story for a little bit. I bought these last night at B&N and I want to give Pollock a go. I've never read anything by him before and this sounds like it's going to be good

                  Finished Part I of Stage Whispers (The Turtle Boy) and once again am ashamed that I've let alot of KPB books pass me by. Was confused by a one-line change of scenery to Ohio in the last chapter, but I assume that the second book takes palce there.

                    Well I finished the first 5 Thomas Covenant books only to find out that the next one is not available as an eBook. Needless to say I was raging a bit on Saturday when I realized this, I have a hard cover on the way, but am still a bit pissed off about it. It's the only one in the entire series that isn't available as an eBook.

                      I was out of commish for a couple days with a back issue (no magazine jokes please )...so I was able to finish The Two Sams, Cages, and Ursa Major.

                      Up next is a toss up of either The Resurrectionist or e-book Flesh and Blood. Will probably go with the first one though.

                        I finished Murakami's 1Q84 over the weekend--very cool and worth the time you need to invest in it. Now I'm re-reading Needful Things while I wait for Proust's In Search of Lost Time (at least going to give it a shot) to arrive from Amazon.

                          That's too bad, Dan. I hope you find the wait worth it.

                            Finished The Hides in Stage Whispers. Where the first novella was nostalgic, eerie, and melancholic, this one was more traditional and full of depseration, but equally as good. Looking forward to Part III, but my dog has an appointment at the vet...

                              Finished Stage Whispers and I loved it. I must add Burke to my short list of favorite authors. Even if I feel one of his stories isn't all that I felt it could have been, his style and prose is more than enough to make me come back. Can't wait for Nemesis to get here on Saturday.

                              Thank you to everybody who pressured me into reading Timothy Quinn and Burke in general ove the last couple of years.

                              Going to tackle Floating Dragon next.
