Big Box of Books

It's a good day when I receive a box of books. I have a long wish list, and with a gift card I received for Christmas I was able to order a box of happiness.

Included in the box:

*Inferno: New Tales of Terror and the Supernatural, edited by Ellen Datlow. (Books like this are the reason I don't get freaked out by books like The Shining and movies like Paranormal Activity)

*The 351 Books of Irma Arcuri by David Bajo. A woman vanishes and leaves her library to her lover. I wouldn't leave my library to a lover. Well, unless Daniel radcliffe was my lover, then I would leave him anything

*The Ghost Huntress: The Awakening by Marley Gibson. Young Adult paranormal fiction is one of my favorite genres. That's not saying a lot, I like most genres of fiction.

*Ghost Radio by Leopoldo Gout. A ghost-story call-in radio show. What's really neat about this book is the format. Each chapter is a seperate call, which lends itself to being a casual read.

*The Gates by John Connolly. I read his "Book of Lost Things" and really liked the story, so I wanted to give another one of his books a try.

*Blood Memories by Barb Hendee. Another vampire story

*Tigerheart by Peter David. This is a re-imagining of Peter Pan. George Takei reviewed it!
