Sorry for running late on this one… Please drop some book club nominations for October (preferably not 1000 pages as we are getting started a little late).

Since it’s spooky season I’ll nominate John Dies at The End by Jason Pargin. It’s an awesome horror/sci-fi with a sharp sense of humor.

    I would read John Dies at the End. I enjoyed the movie and watched it long enough ago the only thing I remember is that John died at the end.

    I thought John Dies at the End sounded familliar. I remembereading “This book is full of spiders: seriously, dude, don’t touch it”

    Just so there is some variety I’ll nominate Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. Something short and light to work out the kinks for the thread format.

    All these other suggestions sound good so far though. Whatever works I’ll probably be adding them to my backlog.

    I second John Dies At The End. You may find it under the pen name “David Wong”. Amazing book and a really great movie adaptation, IMO as someone who watched the movie first.
