    Tender is the Flesh

    The Exorcist (The Exorcist #1)

    This is one of those books that, when you finish it, you wonder if the good guys actually won. I had seen the film version a couple times before reading this book, but it had been years. So I really felt like I was going in fresh. Let's just say…
