The Two Mikes

The Two Mikes
Ever wanted to talk with someone about a book you just read? You could just join a book group and talk about it, drink a little, veer off on tangents, work back around to the book again, and finally wrap it up by picking the next book.

But what happens when the book you just read is about about hungry zombies or a haunted house, and your Eat, Pray, Love–reading friends aren’t really into reading it, much less discussing its finer points? That’s what we’re here for. We Two Mikes will be your virtual book group for discussing new and interesting and old and half-forgotten horror books.

If you want to follow along with us, look at the next forbidden book on the table and start reading.

Thank you! For the call-out and especially for reading a passage. And it did spur good comment, you must admit.

You guys have been firing on all cylinders lately, great podcasts.

Surprised The Painted Bird didn't come up. Jerzy and Cormac would make a great couple of dinner companions, eh?

I nominate Tim Powers as a three-book subject, starting with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Days_to_Never
