He didn't finish reading the story, but was using it as an example, but it scared and haunted my friend and I, to where I still think of that story a year and a half later. That's good scary writing! It's a talent! Like your blog a lot! I listen to my books from Audible on my long commute and at work so quite an avid reader myself. Thanks for your blog! It's wonderful to have the insites you give to books we might want to read. Robertson Davies also did a book of ghost stories which is great. I recommend taking a look for it!Rahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07273289710214675593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19106928.post-33620045264932533262010-10-26T23:43:31.362-05:002010-10-26T23:43:31.362-05:00Just came across your lovely blog and it struck a ...Just came across your lovely blog and it struck a chord! I've been reading too. I need to get a head lamp so I can read in bed and not wake my wife who recently gave up reading. Ugh. A GREAT new read to check out: 'ROOM' by Emma Donoghue. Premise is it is written from point of view of 5 year old boy who has never been outside the 11 x 11 foot room his mother has been held captive in for 7 years by a man who kidnapped her. So compelling. Read it in 2 days.
