I'm reading Ghost Story by Peter Straub and am about halfway through. The first half moved at a plodding sort of pace, but it's starting to pick up and I'm starting to get scared; it's amazing, in retrospect, how he's built up this creeping spookiness. I'm going to curl up beside my stuffed cows and bat and cats and dachshund and fox [since I've been sick I've acquired stuffed critters from friends and family] and hope they protect me.

I tried to read him when I was like, twelve, and reading Stephen King, but I wasn't mature enough for his work. Now that I'm slightly more grown-up, I'm really delighting in it!

I remember reading that in high school and being scared out of my mind.

I liked that one. I'm pretty sure it scared me too.
