Well, thank you anyway. I notice that you are from Memphis...I would like to talk to you about that...off this thread.
I am just about to start reading Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz. It is the monthly book read in Koontzland, perhaps you'd like to join us...anyone?
I read Odd Thomas last year. I didn't love it. Did you finish yet? What did you think?
Melissa, I HAVE finished Odd Thomas and I have started on the next one, Forever Odd...This is a character that kind of grows on you and I have caught myself thinking several times, 'Oh, to be twenty again!' He's just...a nice, nice boy. I was disappointed in the events at the end of the story, but I don't think the storyline was inappropriate, and it is carried on in the next book along with mention of some of the other characters. Very smooth and easy reading. Also I just realized that one thing I like about that book, and that I expect to find in the future sequels, is that even with a lot of description the action is not hard to understand or follow. This series has a lot of dialog, maybe that has something to do with it.

These will probably become due before I can get to them, so I will have to start over for another 6 weeks. I'm finding more time to read, though, than I thought I would have...so maybe I can do 50 before Dec. 31st.
I'm going to give the Odd Thomas series another chance. And by the way, you have made incredible progress with your 50 books!
