The Husband
Dean Koontz
"The Husband is about a newlywed couple that's kinda fallin' into the rut of, "Hey, we don't go to bars anymore. We'd just rather sit in front of the couch and watch T.V. We're happy doin' that," but it takes a whole bunch of twists and turns, when the husband has to search for his kidnapped wife. I generally like Dean Koontz' books, and so I was done reading whatever I was reading, and I needed somethin' else, and so I was drawn to it, just because I knew the author and liked his style. Unlike most Dean Koontz' books which I like, this one didn't have too much of the supernatural stuff, so that was interesting too. I think this book can appeal to a whole, broader range of people for that reason, and at times, you think you have it figured out, but you really don't. It's good that way. You don't really know until the end.
The only thing I disliked about the book was it dragged a little bit in the middle, but then it made up for it - I could see why, you know - It was kinda building up for certain things. So it starts out kinda fast, the kidnapping takes place, and then he has some clues and things to go through. And I like that it goes through the perspective of the husband too, not just the wife - what he's thinking, what's he's feeling. The book would appeal to young couples, because it is about a couple, definitely someone who likes fiction. I think I would rate the book as 3.5 stars, not a full five, because there's other kidnapping books, but a pretty high rating, because it is a kind of surprising ending. You try to guess; You try to guess. But you pretty much won't get it."
