BJ, was afraid that I would beat her up when we were growing up. I'm afraid of being alone in the house at night. <br /><br />There are so many books out there, I'm sure it's pretty easy to steer clear of the scary ones. I still recommend Nora's though!!<br /><br />SIS BarbSisters-in-Synchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604043398648797517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650695048667568375.post-26554509935467945282009-07-17T07:16:26.783-04:002009-07-17T07:16:26.783-04:00Hi Olga,

It seems as though everyone recommends him.<br /><br />SIS BarbSisters-in-Synchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604043398648797517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650695048667568375.post-77732720580350028462009-07-17T00:21:38.722-04:002009-07-17T00:21:38.722-04:00I tend to shy away from stuff that might scare me,...I tend to shy away from stuff that might scare me, even in books--I'm pathetically chicken! I'm intrigued by the premise of The Sign of Seven though, and Nora practically walks on water ;)<br /><br />And interestingly, B.J., I just borrowed the whole Sword of Truth series (minus one book that I couldn't find at the two nearest libraries) for my husband. He's been watching some episodes on Hulu of some series based on the books (Legend of the Seeker?) I haven't read them all myself, but he's been really enjoying them!Fedorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879033776125666713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650695048667568375.post-72088006511413033482009-07-16T22:12:48.218-04:002009-07-16T22:12:48.218-04:00I love books by James Patterson, but haven't r...I love books by James Patterson, but haven't read that one yet.

Especially books with witty sarcastic characters and banter.<br /><br />I don't care for horror either but I do like creepy. You know, like when someone knows someone's out there watching them. Maybe that's more suspense but it sure creeps me out.<br /><br />SIS BarbSisters-in-Synchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604043398648797517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650695048667568375.post-68977854535424584512009-07-16T15:57:41.873-04:002009-07-16T15:57:41.873-04:00Hey BJ,

Not that I don't read more serious works but I need to balance it out with something that makes me laugh.<br /><br />And I don't do horror, though I have noticed sometimes P. N. Elrod's <i>Vampire Files</i> are shelved under horror. But I don't find them to be that genre. They're more like vintage mysteries whose detective just happens to be a vampire. :)Tori Lennoxhttp://www.torilennox.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4650695048667568375.post-25157901341178512872009-07-16T15:23:24.696-04:002009-07-16T15:23:24.696-04:00Brenda,

This is partly out of laziness -- with a series, I finish a book and I don't have to put much thought into what I'm going to read NEXT;).<br />One of my faves (though, I admit, now problematic -- I read the first six YEARS ago and have passed them along to local public libraries, where all my finished novels go to live a new life, and I received for Christmas a RECENT entry. Not only do I feel my memory is not enough of the first six that I can just take up with this latest entry ... come to find out, the gift I got is book TWO of the "LAST Chronicles ..." and I haven't read the FIRST one! I need gift certificates to a bookstore BADLY, and then feel I should re-purchase and re-read from the start!):<br />"The Chronicles Of Thomas Covenant," by Stephen R. Donaldson. They are a kind of Tolkeinesque series of books, but the main difference that intrigued me the most (if memory serves!) is the protagonist. In the present-day "real world," he is "a bitter and cynical writer afflicted with leprosy, shunned and despised by society;" when he is "transported" to the "fantasy world, 'The Land,'" which he himself spends MUCH time in the first two books disparaging as a delusion of his own disturbed mind, he becomes a "He-Man" heroic saviour. MUCH fun, especially with all the psychological tension throughout, with significant flips between our world and "his" world.Richardnoreply@blogger.com
