books

just wondering if any one else loves to read like i do. i love horror books. my favorite writers are vc andrews, patricia cornwell, stephen king, and john saul. i also like old mysteries from the 60's and 70's.

I like to read too. Horror book are okay as long as it doesn't have to much horror in it. Mysteries, suspense, action, drama are okay too. I'll ready something that grabs my attention and if the story good enough to keep my attention to finish a book. I do like Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, Washington Irving just to name a few. I'll read just about anything if it's just right and the story keeps my attention long enough to finish a story. Did you know that Stephen King is coming out with a new book called: Joyland. The release date of "Joyland" is June 4, 2013. Just to let you know since you like Stephen King.

I looove to read. I always have a book that I'm reading and if I go too long without reading, I actually go through withdrawal.

My faves are the classics, and I have to have romance. Yes, I admit it, I like the Twilight saga. I love Jane Austin, the Bronte sisters, Charles Dickens, and I've recently discovered Elizabeth Gaskell. I have many other favorites but if I listed them all you'd die of boredom.

Did you know that you can read the classics online? Anything that is over 75 years old no longer has a copyright to worry about and can be out there for anyone to read. The website is www.online-literature.com,

I like this because when I go to the library, I'm like a kid in a candy store and I always bring home too many books. Inevitably, I forget to renew them or return them on time and I end up with huge library fines. One of these days I'm going to be arrested because of these fines.

Since you are a fan of mysteries, I read a detective gumshoe type mystery years ago that I really liked and I can't remember the name or the author. I remember that the main character was this overweight detective who ate food straight out of a can while standing over his sink. That's really all I remember of it? Are you familiar with this?
