  • It’s time to hunker down for the winter!
    I decided to do some book shopping and expand my TBR before the snow rolls in. I went to a few local used book stores and even bought a couple new releases.
    Let’s go through the entire haul and talk about some of the new novels I picked up.
    If you have any thoughts as always feel free to leave a comment and get the conversation going.
    Long days and pleasant nights.

    Peter Straub died yesterday September 6. I just saw it on a news feed and thought how great you just picked up a book of his. You even inspired me to give Ghost Story another run through because it's been a long time for such a great read. How wonderful of a writer he was that his legacy will carry long long after he's gone.
    RIP Peter Straub 💀 🖤
    (I think he would appreciate the ghoulish and not the sentimental)

    Great video as usual. I’ve collected a lot of the books you’ve reviewed over the past year, and I’ve read a good deal of them. Chasing The Boogeyman was fantastic. I assume you pre-ordered the new Stephen King book “Fairy Tales”?

  • @lucyinthesky4682
    @lucyinthesky4682 Год назад +3

    I read The Hellfire Club when it first came out, I just started college. It's witty and more psychological that horror per se but one of the reasons I love Straub.
    Thirteen Stories is an anthology of sorts but the main story connects it all. I typically don't like anthologies but this connects the characters.
    Where They Wait was such a good book. In the end when it all comes together to realize what was done kind of broke me. It's the horror of what technology and money can truly accomplish.
    And if you liked The Chill, you might like The Ridge by Michael Koryta. It was the first book I read by him and then I just flew right through all his books.

    Love Gone South, I love most of McCammon's stuff, Mystery by Straub as well, read that before hell fire club they are not related but for me its a much more enjoyable read James Herbert I think you'll enjoy as well i haven't read that one but he is very 'Steven king esk' in style ....really love your channel as a big reader/collector it's great to come across a channel like this. Enjoy the new novels looking forward to hearing what you think especially about Gone South .As far as McCammon goes I cant recommend more his epic Swan song, whilst nothing like the rest of his stuff it is an all time favorite of mine, its a massive apocalyptical fantasy I'm sure you would absolutely love

      Not a direct sequel as you can technically go straight to The Ghosts of Sleath, but it’s part of a trilogy called Ash starring the same main character and it does have a fair few references to the first book, which is Haunted. Hope that helps
