    picked that *ketchum's book* last week. great story. made me sick. almost sounds like he wrote the story based on something that happened in the midwest, which makes me sicker, thinkin' about it. gawd i can't believe some people.

    picked up mccammon's gone south and ketchum's stranglehold, used again, trying to ward off the deep blue funk, comes on this time of year, listening to the radio and stuff.

    Insomnia
    Desperation
    The Dead Zone
    Different Seasons

    and almost buying IT and Danse Macabre, with them I will be only 7 books away + the entire Dark Tower series, from completing my collection. But I musn't forget that the publisher of my country plans to release Roadwork next month, and Duma Key in October (yeah, sucks to have to wait a translation, I don't want even imagine when I will put my hands on a translated copy of Under the Dome...)

    I picked up Needful Things, along with All The King's Men and Roots (the last two were 3.99 each!). I'm still looking for some good SK hardbacks, but have yet to discover any at bargain prices.

    Robert Goddard's Days Without Number. I heard he's good so I got one just to try.

    Last week i bought a copy of Night Shift and Dark Tower: The Wolves of the Calla, in a charity shop for £2.50. Yes i already have them but they looked so out of place and lost in the jumbled up mess of books that i just had to rescue them.

    Today i got a hardback copy of Hannibal Rising in the poundshop (crikey i sound very cheap here) so i'm hoping to start that soon.

    Bluey,

    I read that "The Girl Next Door" was based on a true story. It is one creepy tale! Ketchum is one of my favorite's tho!!!

    Robert McCammon is another fav...Gone South is a good read. But IMHO, his two best are, "Boy's Life" & "Swan Song"....fantastic reads!!!

    Books 3-7 in the Dark Tower series. I had bought The Gunslinger a week or so prior and thought I should invest in the rest of the series, but the university's book center stocked every book in the series . . . except for The Drawing of the Three. I've been reading the book through another avenue and what makes this situation odder is that it seems to me so far that it could potentially be the best book in the series, especially if I go off the reviews it's gotten. Hopefully I can get a job this summer and order a copy off of Amazon or something.
