... are you ready? have you been reading your scary books in preparation of the big night? have you already scared yourself silly?!
i make it a priority to read something scary this time of year, and i finally picked up Joe Hill's Heart Shaped Box.
what a wicked good read!!
i actually listened to it, and this guy* is a master storyteller. he wove such a great story around an aging heavy metal singer and the dead man's suit he bought over the internet. we are the same age, and i loved references to our similar popular culture influences--that stuff always makes a story seem more realistic to me.
altho, i'm not addicted to this genre; i have read plenty horror novels, and i have to say i was a more little freaked out by this book!
so tell us: what is your favorite horror novel? don't be shy that's what the comment board is for!
*this guy is the son of the great stephen king!
no wonder the book rocks!
