Some folks, who didn't go to a British boarding school, think that this is a comedy. In fact, it is hard-nosed factual reportage. Trust me - been there, ate the prunes, bought the t-shirt.

Hap and Leonard Mucho Mojo
 
by Joe R. Landale. Any of the Hap and Leonard books are great!

I got a complete H.P.Lovecraft collection on Kindle for 99 pence. That's value for money!
 
I just dip into it now and again in between other books, rather than reading lots of stories at a time, so it should last me a while.

I recently picked up what I take to be the complete works, spread over 6 collections (Ballantine editions). I was thinking of doing an HPL binge, but yeah, there's such a thing as overkill! I'll probably break it up with some other reading. I think these collections are roughly in chronological order; so far there hasn't really been an a Mythos story, except for The Festival maybe, which features The Necronomicon.
 
I get the usefulness and value for money of the Kindle, but I'm a bit of a Luddite when it comes to books! Nostalgically attached to the physical form I guess...

I'm just short of shelf space.

Roald Dahl - My Uncle Oswald. Definitely NOT one of his children's books! 
 
An unscrupulous but charming rogue, a beautiful young nymphomaniac and a pioneer in IVF set out (armed with an incredibly powerful aphrodisiac) to harvest the semen of the greatest minds and crowned heads of the early 20th century, so they can sell it to rich women who want to give birth to the child of a genius or a king.
 
Funny, amoral and salacious.

The Basketball Diaries by the late, great, Jim Carroll.

  I'm just short of shelf space.

Thats my excuse and I am sticking to it. I simply cannot afford the warehouse I would need for all the hardcopy.
 
Apes of Wrath. Ever read "The Willows"?

Nope. Never read any Blackwood actually. Worth seeking out?
