Welcome! Looks like you're a Stephen King fan. You should be in fine company...
What did you think of
Odd Thomas? It's one of the books I've been pushing on the other members of our little group here.
Welcome to the group! It is never too late to join in the fun.
Thanks guys,
I am a King fan, good to know there are others around. I liked
Odd Thomas, different than anything I've read, I've never read anything by Koontz before, glad this was my first book.
Welcome, Liz! Your list brings back memories of some long-ago read books! Good to hear another kudo for
Odd Thomas--I'm very close to convinced to try them, even though I struggle to avoid series books. It's painful enough to add one book to my TBR, but when I have to add 5 or 6 at a time...
welcome!
I hope you give
Odd Thomas a try. I had wanted to read it for years but always passed it over. I'll get to the other 'Odd' books soon.
Welcome Liz!
Thank you for the welcomes.
Just wanted to mention, I was at my son's house last week, and happened to be looking through his books, and there was
Odd Thomas! So I took it home and put it on the 'short pile.' Hope to get to it soon!
Hi! Just found your thread -- a belated Welcome to you! I see some good books on your list.
I, too, like to read Stephen King, and I see you've read a Ray Bradbury recently, too -- another of my favorites. I've read some Koontz, but not any of the Odd Thomas books yet. I don't dare put another series on my Wishlist . . . though I know our local library has them . . . :)
I have 24 more books to go! and less than 4 months. No sweat....
I'm so behind. I have 21 more books to read, and a little over 3 months to read them.
In less than a month I got it down to only 14 more to read for the year. WHOOT!
Congratulations on making progress toward your goal!
Yes, congratulations! Remember that no one is going to chastize you if you don't meet the goal.
No, but I'll be very disappointed in myself. However, only 10 more to go. Looks like I'll reach my goal by mid-December. And then I'm going for the gold in 2010 - 100 books!
Ten more books is a doable goal. Good luck. I'll be routing for you!
Just 2 more to reach goal, and I'm already reading them. :)
