1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    I've read two of her books 'Lost Souls' & 'Drawing Blood'... I Think she's a great writter but sometimes I feel she gets a little too close to disturbing. I just wanna get an idea of what her other readers think of her style and books

    Your choices aren't mutually exclusive. :)



    I read the same two books and my reaction was similar: They are both well written and disturbing. One of the reasons they are disturbing is that the bad guys win, basically. They aren't morally uplifting books, but they are pretty horrifying horror.
