Invasion of the Body Snatchers by Jack Finney

5.0

In the small town of Mill Valley, California the close knit community everyone knows everyone.  When Dr. Miles Bennel begins receiving requests about checking on family members who are not acting normally.  Miles keeps pushing it off to the local psychiatrist but when a friend of his shows him something that cannot be unseen, Miles begins to realize his town is in danger and is not sure how he and his friend Becky Driscoll will be able to get out before it is too late.

Chilling, really well done.  Makes you think and there is a haunting quality to this story.  What I thought was incredible about this story was the panic, it starts small in the beginning and it just increases with every turn of the page.  Excellent read.
