You have a lot of creepy books here, Greg. You made me laugh out loud when you were describing one of these horror books and said, "This is not for the easily offended.....(PAUSE)...I'm going to give it a shot." Of course you are! I do like those Hard Case Crime books. You're going to have this challenge done in no time at all.
I have found Babel in my library donations for $2.00 hardcover , I plan to read it in December. Also Frisk by Dennis Cooper is a book I been wanting to read since I started UA-cam.
You're too kind, Greg. Seriously, though, don't worry about reading it; it's just the first book in a series and ends on a hard cliff hanger. You might actually get a more satisfying read out of my post-apocalyptic Lovecraftian zombie novella--half the size, and oozing over with a lot more gore, violence and unspeakable acts of transgression. Someone made a video review about; I didn't ask him to, he just did it. The novella is called The Mouth of Hell. It packs quite a punch. Here's the review: ua-cam.com/video/EtFfcAkZ_Ak/v-deo.html Unlike Creepy Me, which is set in Virginia, The Mouth of Hell takes places in NY (in Manhattan) where I once lived. Cheers, and thank you for even letting me take up space on your Kindle. --Will.
@@unstopitable That was a good review. I put The Mouth of Hell on a list for later when I’m done with the RWYOC. I also noted you’re listed as the translator for The Underdogs. I read last year. I attempted the Spanish, but just couldn’t hack my with through and read the public domain translation. I still give Creepy Me a try.
@@anotherbibliophilereads Greg, it is so kind of you even to read anything of mine; you don't have to make a review, but I would like your opinion, if privately; I only hope you won't think negatively of me after reading it--it's pretty intense. As for The Underdogs, I did my own translation because I was so unhappy with the available ones. No one commissioned me, and if I were still teaching, I would use my own for class. Gustavo Pellón's translation is also pretty good. Waisman's, though, is sterile. I love westerns; parts of The Underdogs read, at least to me, like one. Anyway, cheers.
"gonna get some"'😂🤣😅
You have some interesting books to read. I've thought about reading Babel but I'm going to wait for your review. ✌️📚

@@BookChatWithPat8668 I’m on track to finish in 20 to 25 weeks. I do enjoy books that stretch towards “ not for the easily offended” material.
@@anotherbibliophilereads I know you do. I just thought your delivery after the pause was just brilliant! Hope you’re doing well, my friend!
You've got some great books to pick from. The Man From St. Petersburg sounds like one I'd like to check out.
I love the snowflake challenge!
As I work towards the 100 I can earn snowflakes along the way ❄️❄️❄️
