Psycho (Psycho, #1)
by
What a great classic to read leading up to Halloween. And what better costume could you come up with than that of, my man, Norman Bates. Just put on dead moms dress, smear on some make-up and let's get crazy.
I think the book is very close to the movie version. Obviously you get a greater visual of the shower scene in the movie, but the book really put me more in the head of Norman and I could see the psycho in him much deeper than is revealed in the movie.
Psycho is well written, short, and gives a perfect excuse to avoid seedy hotels along deserted highways.

Have you watched the TV series, "Bates Motel", at all, Wayne? Really enjoyed the first season and have been meaning to watch more.
