My friend's autobio. From the publisher's site:

"ARTHUR ANDERSON claims he's been in every branch of show business but grand opera and the circus. He became a professional actor at twelve on radio, including 18 years on the children's fairy tale program 'Let's Pretend.' His first Broadway stage appearance was with Orson Welles in the Mercury Theatre's 'Julius Caesar.' Summer stock, winter stock, musical stock, television and motion pictures including 'Green Card' and 'Zelig'  followed, and for 29-years he was the voice of 'Lucky The Leprechaun' for Lucky Charms Cereal"
A breezy read; honestly recommended!

Currently:
The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane by Katherine Howe.

Great book, so far.

I'm not reading it yet--but everytime I go into the book store I pick up Moby Dick.

Last night I came close again. I started thumbing through it and reading random paragraphs but thought "wow--this is long and incredibly...wordy, if I don't make time to finish this, it's gonna sit"

Out of fear that I won't have the time I put it down--again.

Convince me to read Moby Dick.....or.....convince me not to read it.

[Most Horrible]

The Flaxborough Crab (British mystery) by Colin Watson
Poverty Row Horrors!:Monogram, PRC, and Republic horror films of the forties by Tom Weaver
The Levant Trilogy by Olivia Manning

The Michael Egremont novelisation of BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN.  Florid, elegant, Victorian and beautifully true to character and story.  I always enjoy it.

TONS of stuff. Recently finished Bestial -Werewolf Apocalypse by WM D. Carl. Plays out like a zombie nation novel except with various werebeasts. Recommended.

3/4s of the way thru 99 Coffins by David Wellington which is the 2nd of a 4 part vampire series with a different take. Also recommended.

Comics-still making my way thru all the B/W 500 page horror reprints I bought a few mos ago.Probably will be for some time.
AAND in the last month I bought from our own Mike Scott something like 80 EC reprint issues reading at least 1 a day and 5-6 on the weekends. Thanks Mike.

One of my greatest enjoyments monsterwise aside from movies is sitting on my patio on a nice day either with morning coffee or after yard work with a big mug of craft brew and reading. Anything from Cemetery Dance magazine to Scary Monsters to horror comics,man it's ALL good.

You'll get nothing but a hearty recommendation here my friend.........I cheated at first and read the Reader's Digest Condensed version. It was so good I read Melville's original.

I'm in the middle of The Chinatown Death Cloud Peril by Paul Malmont. If you're a fan of pulps, you might enjoy it. The story revolves around the writers William Gibson (The Shadow), Lester Dent (Doc Savage), L. Ron Hubbard and the death of H. P. Lovecraft.

Looks Intriguing.

I'm in the midst of several, "From Hell" Graphic novel, Dan Browns "Deception Point" "Star Wars Rise of Darth Vader", and a book on Time travel as is possible or not possible according to literature and films.

I bought 4 stepen king books today.
Night Shift, It, Dead Zone, The Regulators.
I have other stephen king books skelton crew, christine, the stand, pet sementary, everythings eventual, thinner, and salem's lot.
I have alreadly read salem's lot and wondering which one to read next. Any suggesions?
I was thinking about reading night shift 1st.

[Wicked Lester]

I was thinking about reading Night Shift 1st.

Absolutely! Night Shift has the short story prequel to Salem's Lot call Jerusalem's Lot. Plus it is IMO one of the best anthologies out there along with Skeleton Crew and Nightmares and Dreamscapes.
I'd also suggest picking up the anthology of mostly old stuff Weird Vampire Tales. You may also want to check out some pulp reprints under the heading Weird Menace. Great stuff. Many of those stories are plain twisted.
