Halfway through 'Raven', by Charles L Grant, and it's fantastic so far. He sure can write. After the rather bland prose of 'Swan Song', this is is like an injection of style!
The characters are great, and he can really put you in the setting.
I've found that sometimes you need a 'way in' with some of these stylish authors, and once you're in you can appreciate most of their work. Happened to me recently with Laird Barron, he's now one of my favourite authors.

I like to change up what I read, as far as genre goes. Usually it's a mix of horror, sci-fi. I decided to start a courtroom drama type (Grisham's Sycamore Row), as it was a gift for Christmas, and I have to say I am pleasantly surprised how much I am into it. It flows good, chapters are short (which I like), characters seem to be well developed, and the story up until now, is quite "real". Would I jump into this genre more...... hard to say. It's the only book like this I own, and with so many "to read" that I have on my bookshelf.
Again though, it is nice to broaden my horizons in terms of the kind of books.
