Hullo angels.

I'm a mortician in the fine, wooded state of Michigan. I don't know of too many people with my (questionable) taste in books, so I joined this site to meet fellow bibliophiles and find out what next to read. (And to stroke my ego by showing off my eclectic library of the damned.)

    So we both got started early! [WEDNESDAY ADDAMS]My mom's reaction to my taste in reading was more like "Oh, I read that books too when I was your age..."[/WEDNESDAY] :D

    I would not apply the word "natural" to the sort of books you and I read. :)

    Your shelf continues to grow in awesomeness. I've scoffed up quite a few more titles from you lately.

    I just spotted a new-to-me Lydia Lunch opus on your shelf, but saw the summary is in espagnol. Is it published in English? 'Cuz otherwise I won't be able to read it...

    Or as it used to say in the TV Guide when they showed it on the 4:30 movie: Fungus among us!

    Trust me, a LOT of research. About, you know, snow and stuff. :) My fave story in that collection is "Mother Under protest." Pretty cool. I saw the opening credits to the movie they made out of it on TV 100 years ago and then fell asleep.

    And don't even MENTION alligator shirts to me. In your biz it's probably an East Side saying that "He died with his Docksiders on..."

    But to answer your question, I got it all wrong about "Voice In The Night" being included in Cinemonsters. What it does have is the source material for Empire oF The Ants, THe Masque Of The Red Death, THe Thing (fun fact: Carpenter's version is much truer to the original story), Night Of The Demon, The Beat From 20,000 Fathoms, The Skull, The Stranger Within, Re-Animator, DRacula's Daughter, The Beast Must Die, The Enchanted Kiss, and Killdozer!

    The Hodgson story about the fungus among us is linked on the "Matango" discussion.

    I keep not heading into the library to look, it's been a while since I read it -- but there are at least 15 of 'em in there. I see we have a lot of books in common on our shelves...But yours is reminding me ofa lot of them I mean to get to or forgot I had read...

    Did you know:

    that we, before I even checked out your shelf had over a hundred and eighteen books in common? Whoaaaa, for two strange readers like us, that saying something. But I read the odd anyway. I find it to be a bit more interesting than just reading the norm. But how
    are you? And tell me, what strange and not so norm read are you reading now?

    JASS!
