I love Hard Case Crime, and I love Stephen King (although I didn’t care for THE COLORADO KID). So far, their second outing together is much better.

WHAT I’M READING NOW: PORTRAIT OF A KILLER by Patricia Cornwell
The real identity of Jack the Ripper? All right, I’ll bite, although this was more the kind of book that my mother would have read, rather than me.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN by Frank W. Abagnale (and Stan Redding)
I loved the movie, and I love books about cons. Hell, who doesn’t? (Another favorite of mine, by the way, is MATCHSTICK MEN.) Now it’s time to be exposed to Abagnale’s charm first hand-ish (since it is through Redding’s filter,…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: SOMETIMES A GREAT NOTION by Ken Kesey
I’ve only ever read one thing by Kesey: ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO’S NEST. I think it’s time to change that. The only thing is, I’m afraid that it’s going to be a let-down. I really enjoyed CUCKOO’S NEST, and…

WHAT I’M READING NOW: ROAD TO HELL by Gerard Houarner

WHAT I’M READING NOW: BITE by Richard Laymon
You can’t go wrong with Laymon. It’s impossible. The sad thing is, since he’s dead, there is a finite number of novels by him. I’ve been spreading them out, although it’s pretty hard to resist. I read the first chapter…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: SILKEN PREY by John Sandford
Ah, a new Prey book. I’ve been a huge fan of this series for quite some time. I even got to meet Sandford a couple of times. I don’t think I’ve ever been stuck with a Lucas Davenport book I…
WHAT I’M READING NOW: TALES OF THE LOVECRAFT MYTHOS edited by Robert M. Price
I’ve read most of the stories in here before, so this will probably be a quick read. Some good names in here.
WHAT I’M READING NOW: NOS4A2 by Joe Hill
How the fuck could I pass up Joe Hill’s new book? Also, keep your eyes peeled for a new installment of my Meeting Authors series detailing how I met Joe Hill.
