6/12/2023 0 Comments Odd thomas book series![]() But he’s not all fearless hero – he has a sad back story that makes him a very sympathetic character.Ī melancholy Elvis is one of the dead people Odd regularly sees. They often seek him out looking for justice, and if there is a murderer to be caught, he wades right in. He’s a good cook, has a girlfriend he describes as his “destiny” (aww!), and he sees dead people. Odd Thomas is a 20-year-old fry cook who lives in a small desert town in California. Let’s start with a quick summary of the book Odd Thomas: I ended up really liking this novel, although the ending made me cry, dang it! While Odd Thomas did have some creepy parts, it wasn’t the relentless, under-your-skin creepiness that I avoid at all costs, and it was tempered with very likable characters. Odd Thomas caught my eye because it looked more quirky than creepy, plus I’ve never read anything by Dean Koontz and I wanted to see why he’s so popular. In line with the 12 Months of Reading Goodness challenge, October is the month to read a book with a supernatural or paranormal theme. ![]() (This in no way affects the honesty of my reviews!)
