I'm reading three books right now. the Great Train Robbery by Michael Crichton. I'm enjoying it, haven't read it in years. I'm gonna review a bunch of his books soon. Bram Stoker's Dracula. I read this book a couple times in high school, now I'm struggling to finish it. I'll probably give up on it. Star Wars: Outbound Flight By Timothy Zahn. I've been waiting more then ten years for this book. I've read the first couple chapters and its good so far. I will definitely review this one.

I enjoyed it when I read it before, now it just drags on too long. I'm about half way through it now. Things are starting to happen, but I lost interest in it. It doesn't help that I'm reading three books at the same time either. I shouldn't even be reading two at the same time.

Three books is very hard.
As long as I'm here, I might as well actually post what I'm reading. I just finished Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman and I'm now reading The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell.

I realize it's been a week or so, but what'd you think of Smoke and Mirrors?

Finished Great Train Robbery. Loved it. I'll write a review soon.
Gave up on Dracula. I don't even feel bad about giving up on it anymore.
Outbound Flight was very good. I'll need to read it again before reviewing it.

Smoke and Mirrors was an amazing book and I'll loan it to you the next time I see you!

I'm reading "How to Please Your Man" by Eve Salinger! It's a great book! I've learned more than I actually needed to know, which is probably a good thing in the long run! I'm also reading some sort of wedding planning book just to keep myself focused.

Ok, first off: the search engine thingy on this site sucks major ass.
Two: I can't believe I've been up for two and a half fucking hours - I'm so tired - I don't know how I'm gonna make it through work today. Insomnia sucks. Fuck.
Three: I just picked up a small little novellete by Stephen King called The Colorado Kid which, from the pulp inspired cover, looks like its a crime novel instead of King's usual fare. Still, I'm a huge King fan and I want to see where he'll go with this. I thought I had read most of King's stuff and so had gone looking for authors in the horror/creepy/chills-down-your-spine genre. Ended up picking up In The Night Room by Peter Straub as he has collaborated with King on other titles and I figured he could give me the same kinda chills.
Not even close.
What a disappointment! No thrills, no chills, no nada! How this guy earned such a stellar reputation I'll never know - didn't get one goosebump the entire time. Blah. Read Poe's tales to remind me what good creepy tales were like.
Hope Kid is as good as King's other works....
 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

If you're looking for the Colorado Kid to give you chills, you'll be horribly disappointed. The Hard Case Crime line is dedicated to pulp mystery/noir/suspense/thriller novels. King's offering is basically a light mystery. It read like King was having fun writing it, and it definitely has a pulp feel to it. But it's a vast departure from the true horror novels he's written - it's essentially like From A Buick 8 without the Lovecraftian overtones and the cheated feeling you get after reading it.
Speaking of King, I just finished Danse Macabre...again. Before that, I read The Emerald Burrito Of Oz. Cute book with cool concepts...a quick read, though not a ton happens.

yeah, I read half of it on the way back from court (it's only 184 pages) and while I still enjoy his writing, it's not the horror tale I was looking for. Oh well.

Yeah, I pretty much buzzed through Cell. It was enjoyable, but it didn't have much in the way of scares. It seems to me that King, in his non-Dark Tower books, is more interested in character and dialogue than in actual plot. I cared about Cell's cast, and the violence was pretty shocking, but it didn't stick with me the way Salem's Lot does.

I likes Cell a lot, but Salem's Lot, It, and The Stand are King's books that are in a different class all together.

I loved IT. Creepy fuckin' clown... Eyes of the Dragon isn't ringing a bell, though. I'll look around for it.
I liked Dreamcatcher - the gross factor didn't bug me. The movie, however, was abysmal. You didn't miss anything WRT the movie.
And Kid was dissappointing. King got one point right in that book though: people want answers and closure - something Kid did not provide.

Nothing beats The Stand...
Salem's Lot, It and The Dead Zone are classics also...
Eyes of the Dragon is decent, but not quite classic King...
And I've only read one of his books since Needful Things, and that was Insomnia. Haven't enjoyed any of his stuff for years...
Get the fuck out!

Chewy! You're alive! 
Just finished re-reading The Day After Tomorrow by Allan Folsom. Excellent, excellent book. Read like The DaVinci Code, but much, much better. The ending was pretty intense. Highly recommend it.
Now, re-reading The Lords of Discipline by Pat Conroy.

Nothing beats The Stand...
Salem's Lot, It and The Dead Zone are classics also...
Eyes of the Dragon is decent, but not quite classic King...
And I've only read one of his books since Needful Things, and that was Insomnia. Haven't enjoyed any of his stuff for years...
I read Insomnia a few months ago and was quite disappointed too. Just not up to his usual macabre goodness.
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

Recently finished: A Fall of Moondust by Arthur C. Clarke & The Ipcress File by Len Deighton.
Reading (apart from ...the Triffids): My Gun Is Quick by Mickey Spillane & Enemy's Enemy by Jan Guillou. (If you're interested, it's the only novel of the Hamilton series translated into English, but you can find most or all books in German.)
"Batman is only meaningful as an answer to a world which in its basics is chaotic and in the hands of the wrong people, where no justice can be found. I think it's very suitable to our perception of the world's condition today... Batman embodies the will to resist evil" -Frank Miller
"Conan, what's the meaning of life?"
"To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women!"
-Conan the Barbarian
"Well, yeah."
-Jason E. Perkins
"If I had a dime for every time Pariah was right about something I'd owe twenty cents."
-Ultimate Jaburg53
"Fair enough. I defer to your expertise."
-Prometheus
