enjoyable

There is nothing new in this story that hasn't been written or told before. Yet, I enjoyed the series and look forward books 4-6.

"Clue" with a twist

Revisado: 05-01-24

delightful "who done it"! It was confusing at times and it was difficult at times to follow the logic. interestingvand lively characters. I was not at all impressed with the ending, which is why I dropped a star. I don't want to provide a spoiler alert, so I will just say "Really?"

disappointed

Revisado: 01-27-24

I'm very sorry that I wasted a credit on this book. He spent time exploring unimportant matters and skipped over areas I thought were of interest. I have read "If you tell" and expected more from this book. The ending? Did he give up or is he laying the groundwork for a sequel? That, I assure you, I won't seek out. it's a bit convoluted and confusing (might not have been had I read it rather than listening on audible). It took me a while to get the characters straight. He refers to Eli by first name and then last name throughout the book, and often delves so deeply into the family tree that you get stuck in it. Skip this one.

Easy read

Revisado: 11-04-23

Great characters and concept. There were a few instances where the investigations ignored facts which I found annoying (as if the reader is believed to be ignorant) and the completely undeveloped story line between Jenna and Keith, but overall it kept me entertained. She did a good job keeping the who-done-it unpredictable. It's not deep or particularly gripping but if you are in the mood for some fun and quirkiness this is worth reading

delightful

I adore this book. The characters are wonderful, well developed, believable and people I would love to know. The story was realistic (for the time period) yet whimsical. Fantastic ending. Outstanding performance. I want more!!!

got to love it!

I wish the story was longer! I'd like to know what happens next! I sense a sequel on the way and am looking forward to it with great pleasure. As always, Dean Koontz doesn't fail to entertain with his vivid imagination, spectacular metaphors and loveable characters.

delightful

Revisado: 08-01-23

Warm, funny, quirky, interesting and incredibly well written. I think, however, the book is more suitable for reading, rather than listening. The narrative performance was outstanding. It's just that I know I missed tiny details that would have delighted me further. I loved the characters!

Great Read!

I found this book suspenseful and thrilling. It's lack of emotion was odd but refreshing. it's not that the characters didn't care, but the story wasn't awash in it. I will be looking for more of her work.

kept me interested in more

Revisado: 04-13-23

I enjoyed the story and how it developed. I didn't find it extremely predictable, which is always a plus. Some of the reviews take offense to the DID aspect of the story. I didn't find it to have downplayed the condition or cast it in a bad light. it's a story, not a true crime novel. Although I didn't like some of the characters (who likes the villains!?), they were vivid and believable. SPOILER AKERT:I think the author should have subtley introduced the character connection earlier in the story. instead we were led to believe that all of Grey's memory lapses were due to intoxication. i'd recommend this book to others.

not what I had expected

Revisado: 01-01-23

I am a fan of Dean Koontz and have loved every book of his that I have read since I was first introduced to his work in 1979. This is the first book that disappointed me. Although I found each story line appealing and interesting, the excessive use of descriptive detail, simile and metaphor caused me to lose my way. Eventually, I stopped rewinding when I missed something because I knew it would not be important. It was like a soap opera in that you could skip several chapters and know exactly what was going on whenever you returned. This story could have been written in a dozen pages. With few exceptions, character development and the connection between characters does not exist. I found most of the characters boring. Nothing written touched me in any way. We never find out why the first two scenes were important. The ending was anticlimactic. I am confident that the next book will enthrall me, as usual. If this is your first read of his work, don't despair!
