The Bad Weather Friend by Dean Koontz

2.0

---

2.3 stars - The allure of this book is the smart word play, campy characters, and sarcasm. At first it came across as clever. Then when it grew even more long winded instead of easing up, it started to feel like Koonzt just enjoys listening to himself talk. Like he finds profundity in exhaustive commentary. I learned that I do not. I found myself thinking more than once to, “get on with it,” and I particularly struggled with all stories of the past. I wouldn’t have finished it if it wasn’t a short book.
