Are any of you readers out there fans of Shirley Jackson? Most people just know her from the short story "The Lottery" that they had to read in school, but she has written some fabulous novels and short stories besides that. If you love strangeness with a little chill of supernatural read either, "The Haunting of Hill House", "The Sundial", or "We Have Always Lived in the Castle".

"Raising Demons" and "Life Among the Savages" are two books that are based on her family life with 5 children, many cats and one large dopey dog. They are hilarious and guaranteed a LOL experience. I can't say enough about her writing.
