Finally finished Tick Tock. This book improved 1000% after the introduction of

Spoiler

Del and Scootie!

Turned into a good, campy read. Reminded me a little of some of the lighthearted fun in the Odd Thomas books.

The hardcover BCE I have is in very good condition except for the large red remainder mark from the used bookstore. If anyone would like it, I would be more than happy to send it to you.

I need to make a list of his books I haven't read yet. Going to make it to used book store soon. Cold Fire was a thrill ride but I have never been more enraged by an ending. Morgan, GNTLGNT...what did you think about that one?

How do you tag, again? Sig told me but I forgot. Many members have reported issues with tagging so I'm not alone, ha.

That's still an issue - most members don't get notifications when they're tagged. But you use the @ sign and (without a space) start typing the user name. You should get a drop down list of choices and then select correct name.

Thanks morgan

....I thought it was a bit of a cheat after the whole build-up...

This is one I've yet to read. Maybe soon.....

Yeah, exactly. One of the best ideas he's had for a story and then...fizzle.

I actually quite enjoyed Ashley Bell.

It was fantastic! The ending was just a huge disappointment. Wonk wonk.
I literally wanted to throw the book. I've gotten past it, lol.

This came out after Nightmare's In The Sky, the book that Steve wrote the text to that was about gargoyles on buildings.

...I had wondered about that, but just stumbled across it recently....

I am reading The Bad Place, and liking it a good deal (aside from some goofy-azz dialogue and the totally unrealistic relationship between the two main characters).

Hey! I love your avatar! I have the boxed set (The Royal Box) of her greatest hits collection which came with the cd in a special case, B&W postcards of her in lingerie and a video tape of her videos and her performance of Vogue at the 1990 MTV awards. That, to me, was her best performance EVER with her and her dancers all dressed up in Marie Antionette-era clothing.

...so, basically every other book by Koontz, lol. I liked The Bad Place, too. His books are just fun thrill rides.

Thanks! I agree- that performance is breathtaking.
