John Saul

i have truly never read a non-fiction book, other than sports books, unless i have been assigned to do so. I LOVE reading fiction though, especially anything close to being a horror book. My favorite author ever is John Saul. i started reading his books in the 7th grade(ish). The first of his books I read was "The Guardian", and at the end of it there was a prologue to the book he wrote after that. So i decided to read it, i needed a new bathroom book anyway (the bathroom is where i do most of my reading). I love way he uses suspense and foreshadowing, and then occasionally there is the twist ending. His books are hard to put down, which is why most of my family thinks I'm constipated. His books have you trying to think ahead every time, and you second guess yourself a lot. He gets you attached to a character and then leads you to believe that they are the "bad guy". I'm always thinking, no way, he can"t be the killer, I mean what the heck he seemed like such a good guy. And then BOOM he switches directions on you, sometimes you have no clue who could possibly be causing trouble. I love that at the end of every book he writes there is a prologue to his next book, because of this I have a stack of his books almost up to my knee. i usually cant start another book if i read one of his prologues, i always feel like I'm missing out. John Saul writes in a way that it makes you feel like you're watching a movie, in fact i am extremely disappointed that i have never found a movie based on one of his books.
