pickChristopher Buehlman has completely won my little horror heart! This is my second book by him and it was awesome! I will now read anything he writes without hesitation. This is a modern vampire tale of unique beauty and, of course, it‘s fair share of gore. Highly recommended!

My favorite book with a road trip would be Lonesome Dove, but I wasn‘t sure it would count. Is it still a road trip if they‘re on horses and there are technically no roads? 🤔 So I went with the tagged book, which I just finished. This is my second book by Buehlman and he is definitely an author who is going on my “automatic read” list. His plots are original, his characters well-developed, and the creep factor through the roof!

pickIt‘s the late 60‘s and Judith Lamb is in a car with her 5yo son and her husband driving down a highway late at night when a car of vampires appears besides them and snatches her son. A 2nd car bumps her car and makes it crash horribly leaving them for dead. This is her revenge story against these vicious, sumbitch, vampires. I really liked the writing and how all the characters had these true to their character thoughts and memories. Pick!!!
@vivastory Thanks, Scott, for recommending this. I started this today and am really liking it so far.
so-soI enjoyed the book, though I had some issues. It reminded me a little of the old Greek tragedies, where you wonder how could the person possibly get out of the situation, only to have some divine intervention pop up that you never even fathomed coming. It‘s a cop-out of an ending, you know? In some ways I felt like this was this book. However, the ending did leave me wanting to read the next book (is there one??), so there‘s that.
pickGrind house meets vampires! Set in the 60s, fast muscle cars, dark roads, vampires, veangence and a nun star in this kitschy fun horror romp. I've read all of this author's books and have enjoyed them all. Recommend !!
pickI really dug this one. Mean, scary vampires stalking the highways of America in fast cars during the late sixties. A grieving mother turned nun turned vampire hunter. Apparently the author has an earlier book set in the same world, but this isn't a sequel (although it leaves the door open for one). There was a plot point I didn't totally buy, and an action sequence near the end that got a bit confusing, but this one still gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2.
Nearly finished with this one and if they ever make it into a movie they need to get Rob Zombie to direct. His gritty visual style & ability to present violent, unredeemable characters in an unflinching way (see: The Devil's Rejects) makes him the perfect fit for the material. There's even a role for his wife Sheri Moon Zombie, who appears in all of his films (actually two roles, but one is a little too similar to a character she's played before).
That God existed she had no doubt; her only questions were questions of character.

After dropping Certain Dark Things, I was still in the mood for a vampire book. Have had this on my list since last summer, so I decided to give it a shot. The writing is great, and the vampires are brutal and scary. Still a lot of book left, but so far I'm really enjoying it.
so-soThe pacing was off for me toward the end. I got restless and bored. There was a pretty big twist that should have left me with my mouth hanging open but it was lost in the lackluster slogging pace of the book. For a book where the fast cars are as much of a character as the people the pace was as sloooooooowwwwww and clunky as a 7 foot man trying to ride a kid's tricycle. I want to see this turned in to a well written and well directed movie.
About 70 pages left of this and so far it's pretty dang good. This isn't your typical hyper sexed, sparkly, romantic, swoony vampire story although there is drooling but it's not what you think LOL.
