The Funhouse
by Dean Koontz
I ended up reading this one night the summer of 2016 when our power went out. It was one of the many books that sits on my shelves that I never got the chance to read before that night. While it may not be one of best, it's definitely worth the little bit of time it takes to go through this one. I believe the prologue stated this is either Dean Koontz' first published book, if not one of the first... so die hard fans will definitely want to take a look. I believe a movie was also made based on it, but the adaptation is not particularly good.
Again, not my absolute favorite from Koontz, but I think a lot of it comes from the fact that I really wanted to sympathize with one of the main characters and I ended up really disliking her by the end. However, I became quickly hooked on how her story carried on to others and affected them by the end. It did become a bit predictable, though, and it could use a stronger ending... but it's a fun, quick read regardless. The premise of the story still sticks with me as well, despite some things I would personally change.
