Oh man, American Psycho! Why didn't I put that? That is a great book.
and, I'm adding The Amityville Horror by Jay Anson to this, too. :)

The Stephen King books are fucking great. Especially Riding The Bullet. A short story but I think King is the best at short stories. I especially like how he mentions about the old man pulling at his crotch. That has made me laugh for years. My absolute FAVORITE by him is Sorry Right Number. It gives me chills every time. Also fuck yeah for the Bradbury mention. Something Wicked This Way Comes is, without a doubt, one of the best books I have ever read in my life. It is nice to see someone so like minded.

I used to have TONS of these, but I can't find the big folder. I may have deleted it in a drunken haze at some point. ;/
