Looking for a couple of recommendations please.

Hi!

I joined this site because I really want to start properly reading again. I have a couple of books at the moment but I would really like some suggestions for good horror or thriller books.

Any suggestions???

I'm not generally a reader of horror or thrillers, but you could try The Historian, it's a modern dracula story.

One of my favourite books is Clive Barker's "Weaveworld", which I would describe as a mixture of horror and fantasy.

 

For more straightforward horror, the early Stephen King novels (like "Carrie", "Salem's Lot", or "The Shining" are some of my favourites, and I recently finished "Duma Key", one of his most recent books - both my son and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

 

I hope you tell us what you finally choose, and how you enjoyed it!

There's a whole sub-forum HERE that you can have a look at for ideas on horror, supernatural, fantasty and sci-fi (they're all in the same section), and another sub-forum HERE for crime, mystery and thrillers. I bet if you take 10 minutes to browse through the threads in those sections, you'll have a wish-list as long as your arm.
