I graduated from library school in the Spring of 2010. So far I'm not working in my chosen field, but I hope to break into it at some point!

I'm a huge horror fan, but I enjoy lots of other genres. King is my absolute favorite, IT and the Dark Tower series top my list. I'm always open to suggestions, so feel free to recommend something... more »

    I just bought a copy of 11/22/63 afew days ago but have not started it yet,been so busy with work and my son's Basketball season just ended,maybe I will find some Me time...HA HA.
    If you want to try John Connolly I would suggest EVERY DEAD THING,it's a great book to begin with.

    Good look with the interview, I'm sure you will do well.

    Take care,
    Robert

    Hey Katie, Hows things, hope all is well, love your Profile picture,my how fast they grow,my oldest will be in college next fall.
    I'm just about finished reading NOCTURNES by John Connolly, it's a collection of short stories and one Novella, so far I have to say all of them have been really creepy.

    I see you added Fear Nothing by Dean Koontz. :) I didn't see Watchers on your shelf. That is my favorite one by him! I haven't read a lot of his books but a lot of my friends say Watchers is their favorite one of his. You should check it out :) I plan on reading all his books now. I'm hooked!

    So I finished Darkness at the Edge of Town....Would not recommend this book, the story was so boring I had a hard time getting thru it and the ending was just horrific. no answers, no solutions , Nada !!!!!

    Katie, he actually wrote this is as a short story a long before UNDER THE DOME, the story is more sinister and a little like THE MIST.
    The biggest problem I have with the book so far is that unlike King's novel the characters are not well developed and just seems to jump right in.

    Hey, how have you been, love the picture....
    See your reading Velocity by Koontz, thought I would suggest another good one by Dean called INTENSITY,also a very good movie.
    Have you read Phantoms ?

    I do really like IT, have read it multiple times, it is a toss-up between that one and JURASSIC PARK for my all time favorite. I have seen the book you mentioned, maybe I will check it out, thanks.

    Hi Katie,

    Hope your research project is everything you wanted.

    How does that stand? Is the announcement on the SF group still valid or should it be unpinned from the top?

    Thanks,
    DL

    Hi Katie, I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner about posting your study on the Suspense and Thrillers group. I sent an e-mail to you but for some reason I got notification that it didn't go thru, then forgot to try again. If its not too late, of course you can post on the group's page, I have absolutely no problem with it.
