Just finished reading the Thunderstorm LE of Adam Cesare's "Exponential". This one was lots of fun. Nothing groundbreaking, just a throwback creature feature reminiscent of the Blob mixed with a bit of Tremors and with a fun cast of characters. I usually enjoy Cesare's writing style, and this was no exception. Glad to have read this and added it to my Thunderstorm collection.

Am now reading the Thunderstorm Neon Recluse LE of Somer Canon's "Picking You Out of My Teeth".

Currently about half way through American Gods by Neil Gaiman.Â

So far, it’s an interesting enough story, though at times I do wish Gaiman would pick up the pace.

Reminds me of early Clive Barker.

I SO wanted to love this book, but I can't. I've tried a few times to read it (maybe it was an age thing - I wasn't old enough or mature enough or wise enough) but it just never clicked. I'll spare you with how many different editions I own too - maybe if I just buy more of them, it'll get better?

Still plugging away at American Gods.

Have 60 pages to go, so hoping to finish it tonight.

The story has picked up in the last third, so here’s hoping Gaiman can nail the conclusion.

Currently reading Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow for a book club. I probably wouldn't have picked it up if not for the club, but so far I'm pretty into it.
Listening to Back Spin (Bolitar #4) by Harlan Coben. Another fun mystery book in the series, just what I like in an audiobook.

Last book I finished was The Secrets of Insects by Richard Kadrey, published by Subterranean Press. I love short story collections/anthologies, and this was a great one. There are a few stories from the Sandman Slim series in the collection, and I've not read the books yet so I was pretty lost on those. Readers of Sandman Slim might want to check it out.

Just finished reading the Thunderstorm LE Neon Recluse of John Wayne Comunale's "Electric City's Neon Infection". Had previously read one book by this author and did enjoy it but wasn't really sure what to expect going into this one. I liked this one way better than the previous book. The author was able to keep his brand of weirdness; however, you can really tell that he's matured as a writer as the pacing and voice in this book seemed surer than his previous efforts. In terms of the story, it was loads of fun! Kind of a mystery/bizzarro/horror mash-up. Really enjoyed the Villans in this book, probably more so than the main character. The "Goblins" were very fun! Overall, I'm glad to have read another book by this author and to have added this one to my Thunderstorm collection.

Am now reading the reading the Thunderstorm LE of Adam Cesare's "Exponential". Am a big fan of Cesare and this book sounds super fun; so, my hopes are high!
