    " WTF? Third and final attempt at Laymon - this was just poor. I didn't enjoy his other books but only because they gave me the creeps - this was just trash! It made no sense and was just pure exploitation. "

    " A nice in-between read where your brain can relax and you can just have fun. The multiple storylines didn't blend so well together, but I got the gist.
