Right now I'm reading Night Watch by Terry Prachett.
I was in B&N the other day and remembered this name bc. you mentioned it - I picked up one of his books, but not before one of the sales girls recommended Christopher Moore to me - so I picked up The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove and Bloodsucking Fiends. They were ... ok. I was expecting much, much better from the way this chick kept going on and on about how great he was. His style was in the same vein as Carl Hiassen (except dealing with the supernatural) but he's not nearly as funny or entertaining as Hiassen. The quality of his writing was light and sweet, but not enough substance to sink your teeth into.
Just read Clive Barker's The Hellbound Heart which was the novella that Hellraiser was based on. Really good. Now I'm reading Books of Blood, Vol 1-3 also by Barker. His stuff gives me the chills - different than King, but just as addictive.
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
