A Stir of Echoes
7 journalers for this copy...
Tom Wallace lived an ordinary life, until a chance event awakened psychic abilities he never knew he possessed. Now he's hearing the private thoughts of the people around him-and learning shocking secrets he never wanted to know. But as Tom's existence becomes a waking nightmare, even greater jolts are in store as he becomes the unwilling recipient of a compelling message from beyond the grave!
This eerie ghost story, by award-winning author of Hell House and I Am Legend, inspired the acclaimed 1999 film starring Kevin Bacon
This book fills in details that the movie glosses over. I read it quickly and really enjoyed it

23 July 08 - I found this to be a mystery story (don't want to spoil the plot / ending for those not familiar with it) with a psi twist. Not particularly scary, but bringing the horror in an everyday sense and then extending into situations of actual danger and etc. Well written, pulls you through it. A fast read. I enjoyed it. =) Onto SuperTalya as soon as I'm done with What Dreams May Come (should be in a few days)

Can't wait to read it.
Update: I did not enjoy this book as much as I did the movie. I know it's a little backwards but I LOVE Kevin Bacon and loved this movie. I was kind of hoping I would be "rewatching" the movie when I read this book, but it's pretty different. :-( I am sure it would have been the reverse reaction if I had read the book first.
I just asked for the next reader's addy. Once I finish What Dreams May Come, I will send this on with it.

Thanks for sharing it!
I really, really enjoyed this one!
If you have seen the Kevin Bacon's movie, you'll find certain plot changes... but the core is still there.
Very well written, no wonder Stephen King and others cite this author as their referent.
Soon to be sent to Cambridgelass...

Journal Entry 13 by cambridgelass from Cambridge, Cambridgeshire United Kingdom on Wednesday, March 25, 2009
I give both books 3 out of 5
Thankyou so much for including me in this ring.
I really enjoyed both books, He really has a way with writing that just keeps you hooked. Both are very different from the films which is great and i think they are better because of it.
What Dreams May Come is an oddone but it is thourghly enjoyable. It got a wee bit wishy washy towards the end but overall it was a brilliant book and very well thought out.
A Stir of Echoes was just creepy, for an old book it works so well and plays on the fears that are still relevant today. Really on the edge of your seat moments.
Thanks again am off to the post office to post onto the next member :)

Thanks very much. I've got a few rays ahead of this one, but I'll try not to hold it up for too long.

I loved this - it had me gripped from start to finish. I took it on holiday and read it in the little cottage I had rented in Cornwall, which heightened the creepy atmosphere.
I though it was a lot better than the film, which I really enjoyed. I didn't want to finish it.
I don't want to give too much of the plot away, but I had guessed quite a way in.
It's now travelling to special1165. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
