I could not put the book down and when I was done I passed it to other people who could not put it down eitherWww@QuestionHome@Com

I don't thrill easily!. Books that are suspenseful for others don't have much effect on me, but these are two that really riveted me!.!.!.

Try the works of Algernon Blackwood!. They are short stories but really prolong the suspense!. I recommend "Masterpieces of the Mysterious and the Macabre!."

also, anything by Shirley Jackson, especially "The Haunting of Hill House" The first paragraph, courtesy of Wikipedia:

"No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream!. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more!. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

"Misery" by Stephen King-

Misery is about an author who is on a vacation in a Ski resort!. While driving, a snowstorm brews, and he collides into a nearby tree off the road!. He is rescued by a seemingly nice woman who is a great fan of his book series!. Unfortunately, she is obsessed with him, and will do anything to keep him there!. (Watch the link below, it was the movie of the book) It won many awards in 1990!Www@QuestionHome@Com
