    Robert, I think you would love: "The Dummy Line" by Bobby Cole and 'The Shepherd" by Ethan Cross, they are both nailbiters! Enjoy and READ ON...

    Thanks, Robert! I just took a look at EVERY DEAD THING, and it sounds really good, I'm going to check the library for it.

    Hi Robert, thanks, she's definitely growing up quickly! I don't think I've read anything by Connolly, I'll have to read one of his. Any you would suggest for a first read? I definitely love anything creepy. I just found out today that I'll get an interview for a children's librarian position at my local library, and I really, really hope it works out! Are you planning on reading 11/22/63? I started it but want to finish up the in-progress books on my shelf before I sink my teeth into it so I can give it my full attention.

    Hey Robert, I am about 1/3 of the way in. I'm finding it pretty hard to put down. I can for sure see how the second part will have more action and what not. I'm glad I finally picked this one up!

    You like all the same type of books I enjoy writing. If you like horror, check out my short story collections LURKING IN PENNSYLVANIA, DARK HAUNTED DAY, TERROR TIME, and THE DEAD OF WINTER. I just released a new action/adventure, THE BUCKTAIL BROTHERS OF THE FIGHTING 149TH, a Civil War novel about the famous Pennsylvania rifle regiment, the Bucktails. I've also co-written with David Rimer two French & Indian War adventures, AMBUSH IN THE ALLEGHENIES and ATTACK IN THE ALLEGHENIES. For more info go to http://www.bucktailsandbroomsticks.com
    Nice to make your acquaintance

    Hi Robert,

    If you like Koontz, Cussler, Crichton, Flynn...you might like Catch.

    A woman abducted by a mysterious organization. A troubled man trying to outrun his past. A power so terrible it possesses the ability to rip away the very fabric of the universe itself...

    I hope you'll check it out : ))

    Available on Amazon for 0.99c for Kindle (or just check out my profile for more info)

    My favorite Ted Dekkar books are Obsession, Saint, and House. However, I have not read any of his newer books. Thanks for the John Connelly recommendation! I have already added one to my "To-Read" list.

    I haven't heard of that movie. I think movies take a lot longer to come out up here, sadly. I don't watch that many movies, or much TV for that matter. congrats on the Kindle, thats a nice gift. I guess you will be saving alot of space on the shelves haha. My plan is to one day buy a huge shelf that takes up a wall or two in my house and have a mini library.

    For sure. things are god with my bro, he will be fine for the next 7 months or so, thennn everything goes downhill from there haha. I haven't talked to him about it at all, I don't even know what to say to him. Congrats? Good one? I think he is sick of talking about it so I haven't even tried. The only thing I honestly have to tell him is that I'm not baby sitting haha. Oh well. I am about to make a pizza and crack a beer for the hockey game, Ttyl.

    I'm sure it gets that immediate reaction a lot, it must suck for an author's to get compared to something that was written after it.

    I loved the character development in UNDER THE DOME, so I would probably feel the same way you do. I loved the build up UNDER THE DOME. The ending, however, didn't make me quite so happy.

    Yeah it is really good. It's hard to put down. I just like Sara Douglass so I decided to order this series online. I have never seen it in stores before. Sadly you pretty much have to buy it to get your hand on it, but you should give it a shot. I'm not very far in but I'll let you know what I think when I'm further in, or done.

    I just looked at DARKNESS AT THE EDGE OF TOWN because I saw you were reading it, sounds a little like UNDER THE DOME. You'll have to let me know what you think, looks like it could be interesting.
