I quite fancy reading Fledgling, Heart Shaped Box and The Thirteenth Tale. I also must read Trolls Eye View, Peeps and Nocturnes.

I've read a few of them (World War Z and The Book of Lost Things are just fantastic!) and have a few on my own list. <br /><br />This time of year is truly my favorite.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055676171075203563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-46474447762113872122009-09-01T21:49:17.556-05:002009-09-01T21:49:17.556-05:00I am in LOVE with your list!!!!

Oooh, I think I'm going to come back to your list and steal some of them. Cell is really good too. It got a bad rap for some reason, but personally, I really liked it. Freaked the shit out of me! And I agree with Nymeth...I want loooooooooooong posts from you Debi!!chrisa511https://www.blogger.com/profile/05793512698366676453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-90783718737205412772009-09-01T20:18:40.677-05:002009-09-01T20:18:40.677-05:00There's NEVER enough Debi!!!
That's an in...There's NEVER enough Debi!!!<br /><br />That's an incredible pool, and all those covers are great to look at. I can't believe they're all in your house! lol<br /><br />I wanted more complexity from Pemba's Song, but I still think it has a gorgeous cover. :D Voodoo season is great fun! I want to read Straub's Ghost Story but library doesn't have it; I haven't read anything by him before. I'd recommend Stiff over Spook; I read it the other way around and almost didn't give Stiff a chance. :( The Book of Lost Things is SO WONDERFUL. And I'm about to start Four and Twenty Blackbirds myself!!<br /><br />While I didn't love The Dreaming, I did think it was neat. The Ghost Writer is one I want to reread soon, and The Thirteenth Tale is a total comfort read (at least for me). Heart-Shaped Box and Tamsin are both just marvelous. And Nocturnes has lots of short stories that actually scared me!<br /><br />Ok, those are all the ones in your pool that I've read. :p A lot of the ones I haven't read have awesome covers, so I can't wait for your reviews!!!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-39891947174555764752009-09-01T20:09:41.723-05:002009-09-01T20:09:41.723-05:00Yes, it's always better to be later than never...Yes, it's always better to be later than never! :P<br /><br />Wow, your pool is great!!

It was seriously the one book I really wasn't sure about. <br /><br />Shanra,<br />Well, he helped me find it in the bookstore! :D I was just so thrilled to get to buy it while in New Orleans...just made it seem extra cool somehow. <br /><br />Vivienne,<br />LOL I just hope I can't actually get some of them read!<br /><br />Carl,<br />Thank you!!! And I apologize! Sometimes I swear someone turns my brain off and doesn't bother to warn me. ;)<br />Well, if my words made you feel good, that makes me a happy gal...because you know I only spoke the truth!Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429881953804634592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22449400.post-38431019154161436562009-09-01T17:30:49.328-05:002009-09-01T17:30:49.328-05:00Yay, I'm so glad you're in.

I did you a favor and added your link to the Mr. Linky portion of the R.I.P. post, that way you don't have to bother.<br /><br />It would certainly not be the same without you and Annie involved. And wow, you sure know how to make a guy feel good! :) Cloud 9 anyone?!?! <br /><br />Wonderful list of books there, I cannot wait to see what you choose to read.<br /><br />And I completely agree with you, it is Chris' fault. ;)Carl V.
