I’m probably the first guy anyone knows that complains when it gets cold, and I loves me the horror stories, so I went ahead and got the library to put this one on hold.

Thanks for the head’s up!

Great. I would love to hear what you think of it. I’m reading a book called Threshold right now that you might like. It’s not quite horror, but it’s close. Weird. Author is Kiernan Caitlin. She’s done a ton of stuff and I had never, ever heard of her until a couple of weeks ago. Also reading The Black Clock and Blood Meridian (again again again). BM is the most horrific book I’ve ever read, but it can be pretty slow going.
