Question: Do Any Of You Like Gory Books!?
With a lot of described violence, some character death, a little touch of underground supernatural going on in a normal world!? Would it churn your stomach to read about someone getting their throat literally ripped out, or is that right up your alley!? I just want to know what readers generally think about a lot of blood and guts in a novel!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes!. They're kind of the reason why I fell in love with literature in the first place!.

One of my favorite books is Autumn written by David Moody; and it's so grotesque and morbid - I love it! :]

And my new passion is books where the main character is suffering with depression, and attempts at suicide!. I always thought it was weird; but whatever, it's captivating!.

And just last night, I posted a blog: a story that I made in the spur of the moment!.!.!. I call it a rough draft - but I like it so far, it involves a lot about suicide!.

The last book I read wasn't as gory, but it was still VERY sadistic in nature!. I loved it!

I read the Hannibal Lecter series by Thomas Harris and almost threw up!. That being said I loved the violence and gore!. I found them to be pretty graphic!.
It's so wrong but at the same time I just wanted to read more!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yep, I like to read that kind of thing -- as long as the book is good overall!. Gore without plot is just annoying!.

But sometimes I can't read that stuff right after eating!. =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wouldn't read books about that!. I don't even watch movies or tv shows about that stuff either!. Not my cup of tea at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
