Ilustration Supposing Books Floating Staircase

This book was okay. It started out a bit stereotypical, then the author allowed the plot to begin to unfold which ratcheted up my interest. The story is at its best when the mystery is unfolding. Much of the first quarter of the book was spent in establishing the setting and atmosphere. The author has a real talent for storytelling and it shows when he is simply unraveling the plot and allowing the characters to come to life. The story felt like the author needs a more astute editor that knows how to focus on his strengths and edit out the weak areas.
There were definitely hard to put this book down moments, but they were interspersed with segments I felt forced to skim. I know this author has talent and is capable of spinning a good yarn, this one just didn't hold my attention often enough.

Judgment Based On Books Floating Staircase

Another great one by Malfi. If you haven't read this author, you are missing out.



(Reprinted from the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography [cclapcenter.com].

This is quite a hefty book at almost 500 pages and yet I read this in one sitting. The story just sucks you in from the first few pages and doesn't let you go. I thought that this was more of a murder mystery than a horror novel but it had its moments. At the core of the story is a writer who is still dealing with the death of his younger brother. I think that his personal journey was what interested me most. Loved this one! Can't wait to check out Mr. Malfi's other works.

6/9 - A good read that became quite tense towards the end, so much so that I got a hell of a fright when my mum called my name last night while I was reading the scene with Travis and David Dentman in the cemetery. But what was with that ending?! I really don't understand what happened regarding Kyle. What did Travis mean when he said (view spoiler)[I was you (hide spoiler)]? How was (view spoiler)[Kyle him (hide spoiler)]? If I could I would mark this down half a star for that ambiguous ending,

Ronald Malfis Floating Staircase was nominated for a 2012 Bram Stoker Award in the Best Novel category and for good reason. Ghost stories can be hard to pull off (I mean, theyve all been told, right?). But somehow, Malfi manages to infuse his story with a tension and air of horror that is all too often missing in lesser novels. Travis Glasgow is a writer (stories about writers are a sub-genre in themselves it seems) whos seeking a new start with his wife, Jodie. What better place than Westlake,
