OK.. so I love to read... and I haven't been doing much of that lately because most of my books I've read over and over 3-4 times. I don't visit the library often because I have a problem with remembering to return the books on time. So, my husband let me get one of his books to read.... entitled "Black House" by Stephen King. I haven't started it yet.. but it seems to be interesting just by the cover. I love Stephen King books... I've read "Rose Madder", "Pet Semetary" and I haven't yet finished "Misery". The book excerpt has the following:
Jack Sawyer is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in the small hamlet of Tamarak, Wisconsin. He has no recollection of the events twenty years ago that led him to a parallel universe called the Territories to save his mother from certain death. When a series of gruesome murders occurs in western Wisconsin, Jack's buddy, the local chief of police, begs Jack to help the inexperienced force find the killer. As cryptic messages in Jack's waking dreams become increasingly difficult to ignore, his is drawn back to the Territories and to his own hidden past, where he must find the soul-strength to enter a terrifying house at the end of a deserted tract of forest - and to encounter the obscene and ferocious evils sheltered within.
The following book excerpt is property of Stephen King, Peter Straub and the Ballantine Publishing Group. I do NOT own this.
I've always wanted to start a book club... maybe someday soon.
