Possibly His Worst
I wont be long winded - I normally really enjoy Dean Koontz.
However this was just outright poor - the plot was weak, it felt like he changed his mind half way through as to the direction of the book.
I will carry on reading him - but I wish we could get some more Christopher Snow or Odd Thomas soon. (I also adored twilight eyes - wish that had been followed up as well).
Really Enjoyed
Another Dean Knootz's novel I enjoyed. It kept me in suspense until the very end. Dean Knootz did it again. Written another novel I really enjoyed. I highly recommend if you enjoy Dean Knootz or suspense novels.
I'm a die hard fan but this was bad!
I had a hard time getting through this. He is starting to get too philosophical like Stephen King. Not much ever happened. Definitely not the usual edge of your seat page turner like usual. I was disappointed with this like I was disappointed with Stephen King's Duma Key only worse. It was the 2nd time in my life I considered not finishing a book.
The subtext apparently escaped me
I'm a big Koontz fan, but this one's a dud. Perhaps Koontz filled it with his own personal meaning, but it doesn't make it through to the reader & I really don't care to reread the darn thing to search for worth.
I hope Mr. Koontz hasn't decided he knows better than any editor... he'll end up writing worthless best-sellers if he stays on this path.
What A Shame
Just over 2 hours since I turned the first page I placed the bookmark and arose from my comfortable recliner to take a walk to the kitchen. It was almost 11pm and time for the evening news but that wasn't my reason for making a pot of coffee. I was only half way through Your Heart Belongs to Me but had become so riveted I couldn't wait till morning to find its conclusion.
So far this had the potential to be a blockbuster! A rich man facing his own mortality with months to second guess every decision he's made. The battles within his own mind cause him to hallucinate, hear things, and imagine scenarios. Items seem to appear and disappear with a hint of paranormality. His attractive level headed girlfriend Samantha adds to his psychotic thinking ... Read More
