** spoiler uyarısı ** Sonu tamamen hayal kırıklığı yarattı ve aceleyle görünüşte tokatladı rağmen, bu kitap tamamen nişan tuttu. Dedektif Ryan’a ne olduğunu anlamadığımızdan ve baskımın sonunda Likeness teaser bölümünü inceleyerek, asla olmayacak gibi görünüyor. Ayrıca Rob ve Cassie arasındaki ilişkiyle ilgili büyük bir problemim vardı. Yazarın bu konuda gerçekçi ve masal olmayan / rom-com olmaya çalıştığını hissetmiştim, ancak orijinalden daha az çıktı. Arkadaşım Emily, bir kez birlikte uyuduktan sonra bu kadar çabuk ve çok çabuk bozulmalarının bir yolu olmayacağına işaret etti. Onlardan sonra sonsuza dek mutlu yaşamalarını beklemiyordum, ancak bu iki akıllı ve rasyonel karakterin parçaları toplayıp devam etmelerini bekliyordum. Olduğu söyleniyor, bu kitabı okumayı çok severdim. Sayfalarını açtığınızda sizi başka bir dünyaya yerleştiren kitap türüdür. / Gökkuşağı duygusallığını okuma

I really enjoy the odd thomas series, written as if by odd himself. His eccentricities and quirks come across in the writing, and you really feel he is narrating the story. There were great twists to the story, with fantastic characters. Can't wait to read more from Dean Koontz!

You can also read my review at http://the-bookaholic.blogspot.com Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin's Griffin for the opportunity to read Shattered Dreams! Shattered Dreams was unique and fascinating. It’s not too often that I pick up a book in this genre where the MC isn’t some supernatural creature. Instead, just a human with special abilities. Clairvoyance to be precise. Did you know that it’s been said that every human being has some kind of mental capability of clairvoyance or sensitivity? Just not many people know how to “tap” into it so it lies dormant and that’s why it seems like such a rare gift for those who can. That’s a bit off topic, I know. And something like that might even start a debate, not sure. Just a little piece of information I thought I’d share. :P Anyways, I really liked this one because of the difference among most others. It was unique and enjoyable. Highly engaging and the mystery kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I just had a few minor problems with it. At times, I got a bit annoyed with Trinity and how her reactions played out with certain instances. I also didn’t like the insta-love with Trinity and Chase. I’m all for romance in a book most of the time, if it’s done well and not too quick if you know what I mean… and I really felt that the relationship build-up between the two was just not greatly executed. These were minor annoyances though that I overlooked easily since I enjoyed the story so much. Also, loooovee the setting! New Orleans! I’ve never been personally, even though I only live five and half hours away or so, but I would love to go. I also tend to like settings around the southern parts like that. It makes me feel like I know more since I know the basic area. Haha! A misunderstanding I seem to have is that this says it’s going to be a series. I don’t see it. The first book ended on a note that could have left it completely as a stand-alone. Not everything has to be serialized, ya know? But I guess we’ll see where this goes from here. I enjoyed Shattered Dreams so much, I would definitely read the next book, either way. Good read. I definitely recommend, especially if you’re looking for something different and away from the usual Paranormal. <3 Pixie
