I feel like I’m trapped in my own special John Hughes film, albeit one where I. Want to work in this field do you? I mean, think of all the things you’ll miss! Meshug...

Kimmie's Krap: Odd Thomas
http://kimmieskrap.blogspot.com/2010/01/odd-thomas.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz. Odd Thomas is the best short order cook in Pico Mundo. He also sees dead people. And bodachs. Bodachs are shadowy creatures that show up when something bad is about to happen. And one day a customer at Odd Thomas' diner shows up leading a parade of them. Ghosts and killers aside, this was a fun book to read. One of Thomas' ghosts was Elvis. Fun, huh. I'll be looking for more in this series. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.
