Jonathan Janz Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

@DarrenTannehill @StephenKing Is that addressed to me or Stephen King? I assume King, so I’ll just say if you haven’t read him in decades, you’ve missed some of the best writing in his career. Try REVIVAL, LATER, the MR. MERCEDES trilogy, and DUMA KEY for starters.

In case you missed this, my friend @vlatinalondon's new book (ALIENS: VASQUEZ) is now available. I haven't read it yet, but V's work is fantastic, and I can't wait to read her take on this character. https://t.co/kj8DFAxzx0

Rarely have I wanted to visit California more. @CarolineKepnes, one of my favorite writers (and humans), will be signing copies of her new YOU book on April 25th. It’s gonna be amazing! You can sign up here: https://t.co/kc1f7AFWAR

If you're craving dimensional characters and love being immersed in a vivid world on the page, grab the first two books in @faye_snowden's amazing series (A KILLING FIRE and A KILLING RAIN). They're fantastic. https://t.co/Ux9i3RO7Rw

@SadieHartmann @ninjawhenever @JoshMalerman JULIA, Peter Straub (a spinetingling classic) KATIE, Michael McDowell (historical/horror/epic book) ELIZABETH, Ken Greenhall (did the introduction for this and am still creeped out by it) HARRIET SAID, Beryl Bainbridge (eerie) "Nona," Stephen King (short story, but awesome)

Sometimes a book has a delayed effect on me. I'll read it, dig it, and not really understand until later how much it impacted me. @StephenKing's DUMA KEY is one of those. Another is Michael McDowell's THE ELEMENTALS. Both books grow in my brain with each passing year. https://t.co/R0fBVm0qb8

I knew Peter Straub's GHOST STORY had influenced me, but it wasn't until this morning, as I've looked back through it, that I realized the novel's fingerprints are all over my work.
