IT, is a cracking read of Stephen Kings! and I always prefer to read the books over the movies they have more depth to them!

That said I still go to watch the movies too!

@nanu of nazareth



My sentiments too.

I don't know whether it was just a badly made film(probably) but the Amityville horror was much better in book form (had me checking under the bed in case anything horrible was lurking under there) .

Well I just remembered to check our Book-Club here in work and found:

Stephen King's Rose Madder and

Patricia Cornwell's Isle of Dogs. So it'll be one or the other.



Edit Although I am not sure if I have already read Rose Madder. Is it anything to do with the words Rose Madder being an anagram?

I have Isle Of Dog's here along with Hornets Nest and Southern Cross, but with them being non-Scarpetta I have yet to read them!

I think I'll give them a go when I have finished the Lincoln Lawyer by Michael Connelly!!

Perhaps you should start an Esato book club Goldenface!?

Mmm, it sounds like I might be a bit squeamish for that, but the book sounds OK.

Joke! I am about 3/4 through the Pat Cornwell, which is still making me laugh. Oh and I have met Dr Scarpetta at last. She has only just appeared in the storyline.
