Odd Apocalypse by Dean Koontz
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Odd Thomas is a likable character. Philosophical with an optimistic bent, one who self-reflects and thinks about the consequences of his actions while living in the moment, reactive to the horrors coming at him as he strives to save an innocent.
This book in the Odd series doesn’t disappoint in this, although I do yearn for a hero who kicks a...

I won this book in an #indiechat giveaway on Twitter, and I was pleased as punch because it's been awhile since I'd read a cosy mystery, and my brain felt in need of this kind of comfy book. A Body in the Backyard is, I believe, number four in the Myr...more |

| I won this book in a giveaway. I don't usually read fantasy but thought it was time I tried a new genre and read an author I'm not familiar with. Spreading my book wings, so to speak. Because of my reading problems from my brain injury, I still don't...more | |

How realistic was the characterization? Loved the forest scene. Was dark and eerie. Felt like you were right there in the car with them.

| My second novel, officially launching on June 4th! I had a blast writing this book, and I hope you will enjoy reading it. As per usual, I don't rate my own books. But I hope you will! | |

Shireen
is on page 161 of 391 of The Abbey: I'm having a hard time finding the main character Ash believable. I've met "heathen" Muslims. And he doesn't sound like one; he doesn't sound like one whose cultural background is rooted in the East. He's a walking vigilante American cliche with some prayers thrown in. The setting sounds also rather unbelievable, maybe cuz of the way it's written. More and more, I feel like I'm slogging. Ugh.
