Finished this month’s second #BOTM「All For You」 on #Kindle, #audiobook and physical paperback! Was procrastinating on what will be the next read when my son stumbled on this physical book in the library that caught our eyes and I quickly found it on Kindle too. 😍

This is the first book I’ve read from the author and gosh, it has been a good ride! The story slowly lures you in with all the secrets and mysteries and it keeps u guessing, engaging you to frantically want to discover it all!
I must say, I really didn’t see the twist coming at the 84% plot point. The author managed to keep the entire mystery and tension building up right till the moment where once revealed, you would want to finished up in a heartbeat to understand it all why. The most heartfelt part of the plot was understanding what Lucy was going through as a mother, who loves and will do anything for her children, and yet has to live through the daily nightmare of her son’s illness. Though truly engaging, I felt that the pace could pick up better.

For you whom might be curious, here’s a little spoiler :
Main characters, Aidan (a vet) and Lucy ( a retired doctor, now a devoted wife and mother) looks like a perfect couple with a perfect family with 2 sons, Conner and Keiron. Fate dealt them a bad hand when Keiron was diagnosed with an terminal illness and desperately needs a donor. Conner has secrets of his own with his best pals, Ryan and Tyler, while his parents owning their fair share of secrets and lies. Everything slowly unraveled when Ryan and Tyler started to disappear one after the other. People starts to dub them as “The Taken” and Conner feels he will be next. As they race against time to solve the mysteries of the disappearances, the plot twists keeps revealing themselves and all will make sense in the end.

📖 The Eyes of Darkness
✍️ Dean Koontz

My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars on Goodreads

2022.08.10 ~ 1215am.. finished reading this month’s first #BOTM「The Eyes of Darkness」

and here’s my review 🤓:

Long time since I last picked up a Dean Koontz book and this novel intrigued me with its storyline and the hint that author predicted the Coronavirus like 4 decades ago! It was an easy read , a little slow in the beginning but 40% in, it keeps you going to the end. A very different kind of style from his other books that I’ve read but I like this current creative better.

For you whom might be curious, here’s a little spoiler :

This book is about a Mother who believes her son may still be alive (although he was supposed to be dead due to an excursion accident a year ago) when she started to experience paranormal activities that tells her so. So she started to investigate and commence on an adventure to rescue him and in due course, stumbled on a highly classified government conspiracy and research that involved chemical and biological weapons which surprisingly, started off from Wuhan, China. (So coincidentally also named the Wuhan-400 virus 😳)

So if you are as curious, go pick one up and start reading!! 🤓
