The Scarlet Gospels | Clive Barker

"And you're rude. I swear, the bigger the bully, the smaller the dick." -Norma Paine

This book is definitely not what I expected. It's got moments of comedy and moments of horror. Pinhead is back with a vengence.

This book had mixed reviews but I wanted to give it a shot and I'm so glad I did. This book has been a quick read and I hope Clive Barker dives back into the Hell Priest. Honestly, I want another novel.

I picked this book up out of curiousity. The title sounded interesting and sounded like something out of the Twilight Zone.
I've only just started it. So far, I find it interesting even though I don't read historical stuff often.
If you've read this, what did you think?

I know I don't update often.
Here's a nice slice today: I enjoy the B&N editions books for various reasons, but the main reason is because there's multiple stories from the same author (ex. Agatha Christie).

I'm currently reading the B&N Edition of 3 Stephen King novels: Carrie, Salem's Lot and The Shining.

I've read Carrie one other time and the other two, I havent read. Wish me luck!

I haven't updated in a while. Sorry about that
Currently reading Shutter Island and I'm hugely enjoying it. If you haven't picked up this gem, do it. Mystery, thriller, suspense with a twist ending! #shutterisland #dennislehane #mystery #thriller #twistendings

City of Ashes | Cassandra Clare

I'm about halfway through this book and it's pretty good so far. It's been a while since I read City of Bones, but this is a pretty good followup. Hoping to finish it soon.

I got this book for christmas and I tried reading Murder on the Orient Express once before and could not get into it.
However, with this 3 book collection, I am now getting into it. I love mystery novels like "And Then There Were None" and "Private".
Hercule Poirot is quite an interesting character. So I'm excited to read these stories and unravel the whodunit storylines.

I just started this book, but I'm curious to see what it's about. I haven't seen the film yet, so here goes nothing! #crimsonpeak #tomhiddleston #movienovelization #2019readingchallenge

Red Dragon | Thomas Harris
post image

Okay, first off, I actually like this book. I read this book back in high school and it's been quite a few years since I read it last. I bought this book just last weekend (also Silence of the Lambs) and I'm looking forward to revisiting the characters and plot. There's quite a bit of detail I don't remember, but I highly recommend this book.

I'm only 3 chapters into this book and I'm not a huge fan of the franchise (I do enjoy the first 2 films), I'm willing to give this a shot after reading the novelizations for Alien & Aliens. I'm hoping to get to Alien vs Predator at some point.

I'm about done with this book! I started reading the Poldark novels about a year ago (after watching a snippet of the first episode of the show) since it piqued my interest. I took quite a while away after "Demelza" and watched the first two seasons. If you have not started this series, please check it out. I wasn't sure if I was going to even like the series, but I'm in love with it.

It (Library) | Stephen King

I'm actually going to try and read this for the first time. It's going to take a while to get through, considering this is a King novel and it's huge (over 1,000 pages). Can it be done? I'm about to try my buns off and do it. (Hopefully be through 100 pages by Monday)

Doctor Who: In the Blood | Jenny T Colgan

This is another book I'm reading. Doctor Who: In the Blood. This an adventure featuring the Tenth Doctor and Donna Noble (David Tennant & Catherine Tate, respectively). The author captures their wit and chemistry so far. I loved Donna but I do miss Rose.

Arrow - Vengeance | Titan Books, Oscar Balderrama, Lauren Certo

Not quite halfway but this book is definitely different. Only being through the first season of the show (and 3 left to catch up on), I find the plot compelling and interesting so far. The Slade Wilson character in very interesting finding out his backstory.

The Walking Dead: The Road to Woodbury | Robert Kirkman, Jay Bonansinga
Mehso-so

I got this book in a double feature. I loved "Rise of the Governer" and finished it fairly quickly. This book took me over a year to finish. To be honest, the first half is pretty boring but the last 2/3 of the book had my attention. I'm not sure whether or not I recommend this book or not at this point. When I start the next one, I may update this one.

First off, let me say this: This book was pretty interesting. When I first bought the "Tiger's Curse" series (there is a total of 4 right now), I found the novella on amazon, not realizing there was a prequel before the actual book series started. Once I received it, I started it and it had my attention after the first few sentences. I'm gonna keep this short. The ending was shocking. The events leading up to it are interesting. I recommend it.

MrBook Nice review! 8y
