Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

    Imajica by Clive Barker.

      Reading this right now, and a little over halfway through. Enjoying it, but it took a long time for me to really sink my teeth into it. It’s a very long book and a slow burn.

        It’s so intricate and intimate - I just disappeared into the book and isn’t that what we need sometimes?

        I actually read it in 2 weeks. It gripped me in a way that any free time, I was reading it. Every meal, break and bathroom trip 🤪 I sometimes struggle with fantasy stories because it’s hard for me to picture the world they are set in. Clive has a way of creating worlds that when you’re done reading the book, it takes a while for me to process that world doesn’t actually exist somewhere.

      Weaveworld is another great one! Actually any Clive Barker book is great to me. Mister B. Gone it’s probably my favorite quick read by him.

        Yes another great book that seems so bizarre when you read the summary but is just so well written and believable!
