Hello, I am a 40 something mother of two wonderful teen boys. I live in and am from Texas. I haven't always been the avid reader that I am today. Although I have always liked to read, I have found that in my "middle age", I am enjoying it so much more than when I was younger. I certainly wished that I had kept a log of all the books that I... more »

    Oh ok on Patient Zero. I want to try ot soon too. I am reading Summer of Night by Dan Simmons. So far its pretty good. seems like it will be creepy..... I put KIng down (Black House) toooo slow for me... I will go back to the Shining and Salems Lot after I finish some of these others. I need the books to pick up when I start them. I also bought the Passage. What did u think of this one?? I think u told me awile ago???

    No power here, so I got some reading done over the weekend. The Day of the Triffids, was fun and very good, but not very scary. I think it was very original(it was written in 1951) and it holds up pretty well. I think I'm going to pass on the movie though, because I really think it would not translate that well to film.
    I also read Material Witness and found that to be great fun. It was the first Joe Ledger book I've read, so I am going to start on the rest of them soon.

    Sandra, please let me know your thoughts on it, when you're done, if you wouldn't mind. I read a little more of Triffids last night and I am loving it!

    Right now, I am reading The Penal Colony which is an older book about a prison island, ...it's ok. I am also reading an old scary sci fi book The Day of the Triffids. It was listed as 1 of the top 100 scary books on Goodreads. I just started it, though, so it's too soon to tell. What are you reading?

    Sandra, I don't know if you go to Goodreads or not, but Jonathan Maberry is going to host some kind of zombie chat later this month. It sort of looks like fun!

    Sandra, I finally started Ghost Road Blues and I LOVE it! I did not realize that blues music was a part of it and I also LOVE the blues...I've written down some of the songs/musicians hoping that I will be able to track down the ones I have not heard of.
    Thank you so much for the recommendation! (I was approx. 15% in and bought the other two books as well!!) Thanks again!

    Just finished 'The Plot Against America' by Philip Roth, now I'm reading 'The Simple Truth' by David Baldacci. I finished 'The Black Echo' not to long ago - Harry Bosch/Michael Connolly are rapidly becoming my favorites. If like the Harry Bosch type of stories, try works by T. Jefferson Parker - good reading!
