Recently read this book - VERY fascinating story, and I kept thinking maybe some of you know the author!
I read this last year. Very interesting and disturbing. Since she's from such a small place in Idaho, I will be surprised if anyone here knows her personally from that time in her life. Amazing what she has done with her life, and it is kind of hilarious how successful her family has become as well. Gotta love those essential oils.

Just completed "Miracleman" The Alan Moore version... Awesome stuff. 11/10. DC's version is crap compared to this...

Pretty much only thing I read is fantasy and I find it hard to find good books.
Must read for me:
Lies of Locke Lamora. Not really fantasy at all but it's listed as it. Funny as hell book, the kind of book other authors like Patrick Rothfus recommend. Make it your next read and you won't be disappointed. @fishonjazz @TroutBum should read. I also recommend The Thicket by Joe R. Lansdale. It's a Western that's funny and good too.
A Discovery of Witches. A romance written by a historian who throws in some pretty solid science along with pseudo-history. Great trilogy.
Night shadow trilogy by Brent Weeks. I thought it was almost as good as Robin Hobbs 1-3 and 7-9.
The Hollows by Kim Harrison. Urban fantasy that incorporates every fantasy character outside of golems. I liked all 12 or 13 except one slow one in the middle, which was still pretty good.
The Host.
