We get time travel, some historical fiction in the mix, stalkers, mystery, some thriller elements, guardian angels – I know it sounds like it could get complicated to follow along with but everything works together seamlessly and flows so well. I completely understand why this is one that so many people recommend and why it’s Chandra’s favorite. I’ve only read his newest Jane Hawk series, so LIGHTNING is my first from his backlist. This was the newest #BuddyReadsToDieFor selection and it’s about time I picked up some more books by Koontz. Koontz, Koontz bo Boontz – my heart is happy. It captivates you straight from the get go. Uff – now I want to go read his backlist AGAIN. My favorite book of his is Watchers, which I implore you to read if you haven’t… and in his horror realm, I’d recommend Whispers and Phantoms. Koontz at his finest, in my humble opinion. Also, can we talk about her son and how awesome this kid is?!Īhhh – this just brings back so many good memories. What does this story entail? Time travel (PARADOX!), probably a bit of glorified stalking (ay-oooooooooo), Hitler, lightning (of course) and the story of Laura – from birth to *present* day (present as in 1989) and I am still grinning ear to ear. Would that have changed my love for this book? I really don’t think so! I also love just how short the synopsis is.
I’m beyond thrilled to find that I STILL love this novel SO DAMN MUCH.ĭo I have things to say about certain parts of this book that may not have worked for me if I had read it for the first time today? Absolutely. I haven’t read this book in literal decades – the first being when I was soooo young and to be reading it now, 30+ years later (yes, I’m old), and through different, more experienced eyes. Ahhhh! Thanks to my co-Buddy Reads to Die For hosts for allowing me to choose one of my all time favorite Koontz books as our February book club read.
