Night Surf. Raw, great. Hello early Capt'n Trips.
I started the re-read.

I didn't know there was a remake! Watched original with English subtitles last October - amazing. Now I must read the book.
The swedish original is better than the remake, No contest really.
Certain Dark Things by MJ Pack

The Christopher Hitchens book was interesting.
Sounds nifty. You ever read any of de Camp's pastiche Conan? He also turned some of R.E.Howard's non-Hyborian stories into Conan stories, but wrote a few of his own, as did Lin Carter and Bjorn Nyberg. Some people consider these works part of the Conan canon (Canon Conan?), and others will draw steel at the very mention of such blasphemy.
(Incidentally, I don't consider em canon Conan Canaan cannon coo coo, ah hem, but it's all quite readable stuff.)
'Swedish Originals' meant something different back in the 70s.

Just started "Mr. Mercedes." I'm going to read the Bill Hodges trilogy consecutively.

I'm swapping between the last half of Rogue Lawyer, an Architectural law book and Proxy by Alex London. The Sypnosis of the book at the back says that i'm going to like this too (my standards, is i felt it would fall in the category of my favorite genre, im. Going to like it)
Seriously, i'm reading too much Law stories and novels and Thrillers lol

I just started Career of Evil which is the 3rd in the Golbraith Cormoran Stike series. I keep being impressed by how much I like these books and this tone.
Also, re-reading IT. Just felt like it was time.

I'm being very stingy with the last $13 of my ebook credit...I must have downloaded 2 dozen "free samples" in the past couple days.
I read the sample and if I actually care about how the story ends, I buy the book. So far, too cheap to care much.
I just started a sample of Michael Crichton's "Sphere" so we'll see how that goes.

I thought his book NOS4A2 was very good staropeace
The 101 Most Influential People Who Never Lived, a collection of short essays about mythological and literary characters who have influenced western culture/society.
Good news: finally spent the last of my credit. You by Caroline Kepnes. I read the sample and just had to know how crazy it was going to get.
Bad news: if it's as good as I'm hoping it will be, I'm going to have to spend my own money for the sequel.
