Gateways by F. Paul Wilson. I have really enjoyed the Repairman Jack novels but I only discovered them about year ago and I have been reading them out of order. I just picked up The Tomb as well (which I think was the very first one), I wish I could have started it first, but I had this one here earlier.

Finally finished reading The Night Stalker by Philip Carlo. Very interesting read as it explored Ramirez's child hood and his family. Then I read Choke by Chuck Palahniuk. Great novel about a sex addict trying to take care of his mother, so he chokes on food and hopes someone will same him, then feel responsible and send him money. Right now I just started reading Anthony Burgess' A Clockwork Orange. Great stuff. Can't wait to finish it.

Clockwork Orange is a wonderful book LdC.
Just reading the new Tess Gerritsen thriller, The Mephisto Club - one of those authors (like Jeffery Deaver) who I have to buy the minute a new title is released, and hang the price.

Yea ACO is excellent so far. Love it! Just picked up Matthew Lewis' The Monk today. Supposed to be a great gothic tale, first published in like 1796! Can't wait to get to it.

Saw that at Barnes N' Noble when I went into pick up The Monk. Looks great. I need to pick that up some time soon.

Just finished reading A Clockwork Orange. Great book! Much better than the film, because (although Kubrick is great) he left tons of things out, especially the last chapter which brings the story to a proper close.
Now I need to go back and finish reading In Cold Blood by Truman Capote.

Son of a Witch-sequel to Wicked. Good stuff so far-nice mix of satire/fantasy/ and drama

James Lee Burke's new one Pegasus Descending. And just finished Jonestown, a hard-hitting (very unauthorised) biography of an Aussie radio shock jock. Terrific read.

Richard Laymon's The Cellar
Stark stuff with a humdinger of an ending.

Finished The Communist Manifesto. Great read right there and highly recommended. Now I started reading William S. Burroughs The Soft Machine. This is a great book, but very very strange. I really think Burroughs has an obsession with anal sex, because he has talked about it atleast 25 times and I am not even half way through the book. lol
