Please help me before I lose my mind...

Took Drama Queen to the library last Thursday, which, I am ashamed to admit, is the first time all summer that we have been there. Borrowed The Colorado Kid, which is a recent Stephen King novel, and you all know how much I love Stephen King...I think I was disappointed with that one though. Certainly not nearly enough to stop reading his books...Let's not be silly now. Just unsure, I guess. The jury is still out. If any of you out there have read any good books this summer, I am very open to suggestions. I found myself quite lost as I was browsing around, very uncertain of what to borrow. I've already went through my own personal Stephen King collection and read everything at least twice. I would also like to make a suggestion of my own here...Even if you aren't a Stephen King fan, you should check out The Eyes of the Dragon. Not one of his better known works of art, but a very good read. One of my favorites, actually, next to the Gunslinger/Dark Tower series and Pet Semetary, of course, because that was my first!

Found another funny T-shirt while browsing the web for a gift for a friend. Fucking love this one! I actually think this is the one I'm getting him. He'll love it!

Just remember folks, it's all in fun.

Ok, I'm done. Keep those book suggestions coming!

Have you checked out any books by Clive Barker? He is a master of horror, particularly in his short story compilations known as the Books of Blood (I like them because I can finish them before nodding off), but his later novels are quite good.

I'd suggest Sacrament, Damnation Game, or Weaveworld. My personal favorite, though, is The Great and Secret Show and it's sequel Everville. They're known as the books of the Art, and there is SUPPOSEDLY a third volume coming someday.

Also check out any Michael Connelly book if you are at all interested in "detective"/mystery novels. He's a master of the genre.
