by no means are these books as sophisticated as what everyone else reads but Watchers by dean koontz. Salems lot by steven king and The Stand by steven king was the best book i have ever read. also i believe the great shark hunt, gonzo papers vol 1, strange tails from a strange time by hunter s. thompson. i think this was the book but i was in a downward spiral of booze and coke at the time. ahhh good times, good times.
I read like crazy and I like it all, especially King, he gets a bad name cuase he's a hack but I like him a lot. Salem's Lot was good, The Stabd was good, have you read IT yet? The Shining?
Ok books I read recently...
King- Tommyknockers -sci fi horror novel about a town that finds a strange object in the woods that does strange things to them.
Richard Matheson- I Am Legend read this a million times. Last man on earth scenario, one twist is all the dead suffer from a diesease like vampirism. A man his will to survive and the struggle to remain sane, awesome read and I can tell you the upcoming movie is not really close to the book...leave it to Hollywood to ruin a good story
Lovecraft- A compilation of short stories, sorry forget the title. But it's Lovecraft, if you like dark, grim, and weird go for it.
Bentley Little- The Return- This guy is sick period, fucked up shit.
Book of Buds Vol. 1-3 You should know this one already.
Peter Straub- Ghost Story- awesome book about, well the title says it all.
Steve King- The Mist- another one I have read a lot over the years, just read again for the movie...still one of my favorites..." Smething in the mist"
I'm in a horror phase right now but oh well it's all good.
