Horror Book # 25 Skeleton Crew by Stephen King

 I didn't expect Skeleton Crew to be one of the best Stephen King books I've read. Most every story here is a winner and there are quite a few of them. Easily an A.

Book # 103 & Horror Book # 45 The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

 

This was my second reading of The Picture of Dorian Gray - and yeah - I liked it. That Oscar Wilde guy has some witty things to say. A.

Horror Book # 39- Christine by Stephen King

 

Another Stephen King book crossed off my list. Christine is a bit above average for a King novel. B+

World Within a Song: Music That Changed My Life and Life That Changed My Music by Jeff Tweedy

 

A nice chill book of Jeff Tweedy's commentary on some of his favorite songs. B+

Horror Book # 9 - Stories and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe/ Horror Book # 15 - The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe/ Book # 194 - The Complete Stories of Edgar Allan Poe/ Horror Book # 18 - The Tell Tale Heart and Other Writings/ Mystery Book # 3 - Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edgar Allan Poe

 When I first started this blog I spent a good deal of time browsing used book stores. One of the best items I ever found was a nice hardback copy of the complete and unabridged writings of Edgar Allan Poe for only $2.00. It was probably at the used book store within the Santa Monica Library. That was maybe 13 years ago. And I have slowly been getting through it. And now I'm all done - all the short stories, a bunch of poems and his novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordan Pym. Some of the stories are great - true classics. Some made absolute no sense to me. A

Horror Book # 12/ Book # 122/ Mystery Book # 70 - Dracula by Bram Stoker

 For some reason I quit halfway through reading Dracula back in high school. And now 30+ years later I've finally picked it back up. I enjoyed going back to reading a "classic" book. Maybe it was a bit longer than necessary but it still gets an A.

Star Wars: The High Republic - Trials of the Jedi by Charles Soule

 

Finally! An end to The High Republic series! Now to catch up on all my other reading. The ending was about as good as you could hope for such a long series. It felt like a true ending and was pretty satisfying. B+
