Lynn Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I joined this forum last year, but due to a rather nasty accident with my laptop and a mug of hot chocolate i never actually got the chance to join in! Now that i have a lovely shiny new computer and mugs of hot chocolate are banned from anywhere remotely near my desk! i thought i'd have another go Im a 35 (soon to be 36 ) year old scots lass. I live with my lovely hubby and our assortment of pets in Loch Lomond, Scotland I work full time as a dental nurse which i absolutely love, and i've worked in the same practice since i left school. I've loved to read since i was a wee lassie, and if im not found with my head buried in a book, then people usually wonder what's wrong My favourite authors are King, Koontz, Herbert, Deaver, and Hutson and my favourite genre is Horror. I've decided to try and broaden my horizons a wee bit and try something new for a change. I feel im missing out as there's so many absolutely amazing books out there, and i havent even made a dent in them yet! I've just finished reading The Secret Scripture ~ Sebastian Barry which i absolutely loved and at the moment im finding it difficult to tear myself away from The Road ~ Cormac Mccarthy. I've never experienced the feeling of such total and utter despair for characters in a book as i do for them, and yet i dont want to put it down. Anyway im off for a proper nosey round the forums and im looking forward to getting to know everyone! Lynn x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dzposableheroes Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Hello Lynn and welcome to the forum! I used to read a lot of horror books but grew out of that genre. As I was in high school at the time I was a big fan of Christopher Pike though he isn't all that horrifying really I wouldn't mind picking up another horror book and as I've never (yeah, I know) read anything by Stephen King he will probably be the first on my list.
