Richard Montanari's second novel, The Skin Gods, does not disappoint. This page-turning thriller is as layered and suspenseful as The Rosary Girls. I really like Kevin Byrne and Jessica Balzano, his two main homicide detectives, and I can't wait to read the rest of this series. (Luckily for me, there are at least six more books to go!)

Check out these clever and fun grammatical tees. The autocorrect one totally made me laugh. You can find them all at Cents of Style.
Recently checked out of the library:
The Shining by Stephen King ('cause it's that time of year!)
Agnes Grey by Anne Bronte
They Came To Baghdad by Agatha Christie
A Kiss Before Doomsday by Laurence MacNaughton
Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey ('cause ghost stories also go with October!)
Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco
Am also in the mood for:

Because I like these classic monster movies, especially the black-and-white ones starring Bela Lugosi, Lon Chaney, and Boris Karloff. What about you? Got any favorite monster movies that I should add to my October monster movie viewing?
Happy Reading...and Viewing...in October!
I love that "weird" shirt. :) I hope you enjoy The Shining. It's my favorite Stephen King.
ReplyDeleteGood to know! I can't wait to get started on it. :)
DeleteLove those shirts :) The Shining is such a good read - you will LOVE it. I've always wanted to read Agnes Grey - maybe this winter I finally will. Enjoy the scary movies :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm looking forward to all...but especially The Shining. :)
DeleteHa ha. Love the shirts. Maybe I'll read Haunting Violet for October too.
ReplyDeleteOoh, do! Then we can compare notes. :)
DeleteThose shirts are sure funny! I haven't read The Shining, but I do love the film adaptation. Such a classic. Hope you enjoy those books! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Melody!
DeleteI love Dracula has risen from the grave...for me it was the best of the Dracula films!
ReplyDelete:D I can't wait to watch it; just got a copy from the library!
DeleteOMG--I love those shirts!
ReplyDeleteAren't they great? And they have more on their website! These were just my favs. :)
DeleteI think my favorite spooky film is An American Werewolf in London. Oh, and don't forget the Northern Exposure Halloween episode, Jules et Joel.
ReplyDeleteI used to love watching Northern Exposure! :)
DeleteThose t-shirts are awesome! I love monster movies and the classic ones are my faves. If you want something a bit scarier then The Omen is chilling!
ReplyDeleteOoh...that's one I've only seen bits of; I should watch the whole thing this Halloween. Thanks! :)
DeleteTMC is having a classic movie marathon this month. I plan to watch most of them. And those shirts? I need them both!
ReplyDeleteAren't they great?
DeleteI have enjoyed the Montanari books I've read, including The Skin Gods. His books are very dark but so good!
ReplyDeleteLove those shirts! I hope you enjoy your books. They look like perfect October reads.
I should have know you'd already read Montanari's books! :D
