Ashley Bell by Dean Koontz

5.0

Has anyone one else become super creeped out by stories with Gingerbread men in it since reading this book??? I work in a library and all the books checked out over Christmas are coming back and I being flooded with children's books with Gingerbread men in them. I know it was such a minor part of the story, but wow--this is the affect Dean Koontz's writing can have on you.

This was a brilliant story. I will admit that I was taking the story line at face value at first. Not realizing he was spinning an fantastical supernatural aspect around Bibi. Of course being a reader of Koontz's work for a long time, I should have known, yet he wrote the story so well, that I couldn't pick it out.

And then--when halfway through the book, he lays all the cards on the table. But Bibi's plight goes deeper yet, and you are driven to find out how everything will end.

A page turner from start to end.
