Welcome to Litsy!

This book was so creepy and twisted. Koontz is one of my favorite horror authors.

Mitch‘s wife, Holly, has been kidnapped, and Mitch must scrounge up $2 million to save her. He is willing to go to the ends of the earth to bring his wife home. But how far is too far? What would you do to save the one you love?
I loved this book; it wasn‘t my favorite of his, but it definitely had twists and turns that I didn‘t see coming. It had me on the edge of my seat. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Detectives Carson O‘Connor and Michael Maddison must save the world from a band of monsters called the New Race, engineered by Victor Helios a.k.a. Frankenstein.
I haven‘t been enjoying this book series nearly so much as his Odd Thomas series. I do like the relationship between Carson and Michael but I don‘t think it‘s enough to sustain the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

#CoverStories

The books on my Kindle “shelves” with a #KeyHole on the cover. I‘ve only read the tagged book so far although I‘ll be reading The Briar Club next month for #AuthorAMonth & @JacqMac ‘s #AuldLangSpine list. The other 2 are in my #TBR

I‘ve liked Koontz‘s books & the striking cover had me hoping this #KindleUnlimited title‘d be fun, but this listen fell flat to me. I wasn‘t expecting it to be quite so fantastical. Vida lives in a remote property, making her living illegally mining for gemstones & is so in tune with nature she‘s never had so much as a mosquito bite. Her BFF is a half wolf/half shepherd leader of a pack but when a billionaire murders her fiancé, she seeks justice.

A slowly unfolding mystery with a strong female lead character. A sprinkle of romance, some interesting bad guys, with wolves and dogs and a touch of the supernatural. Enjoyable read, although the first 1/3 of the book feels like Koontz swallowed a thesaurus. The MC lives remotely and I believe he was trying to set that scene, but it was more distracting than helpful. Still recommended, and know the last 2/3s is more normal.

It‘s always a good day when there is a book in my mailbox. I‘m grateful for The Poisoned Pen, an independent bookseller, in Scottsdale, Arizona, who sent me a signed copy of The Forest of Lost Souls by Dean Koontz. The gorgeous end papers are perfect for fall! The dust jacket protects a beautiful hardcover. I look forward to reading this!
