To start out, I will say I loved the first book in this series, Odd Thomas, and I felt that the second book, Forever Odd, was a huge let down. As a result, I put off reading the rest of the series for a long time, because I didn't want to be further dissapointed. Well, I was. I love Odd Thomas, he's just funny and sarcastic and a very likable character in my opinion. The story however, was not up to par. Here are my main complaints about Brother Odd: 1.) Dean Koontz needs to stop force feeding me useless descriptions and directions! "I turned northwest, then east, then I turned around and went west again" or "The tunnel was seven feet high by five feet wide. Four cables ran along the top left hand side. The first housed the electical wires, the second housed...blah blah blah. I found that trying to figure out which way Odd was actually walking and trying to envision the tunnel perfectly was very frustrating and distracting. 2.) I didn't understand the bone creatures at all. He kept describing them over and over and I just couldn't form a picture in my mind that made any kind of sense. It was over complicated and hard to believe. 3.) The story wasn't so much about Odd, as it was about everyone else in the book. We really didn't learn anything new about Odd or what was going on with him. He was still in the exact same place as he was at the end of book two, and he didn't really grow much at all. Instead, the secondary characters were built up too much, some to the point where I didn't even care about some of the details I was being given. This book could have, and should have been great. Instead, it felt cheap and quickly slapped together. I really hope the last book in the series, Odd Hours, turns out to be fantastic, because Koontz can't give us Odd Thomas, a very good book, then just trash the rest of the series, of Odd's life.

I had heard they were making a movie of this on Disney Channel a while back. My first comment: READ THE BOOK. The movie is fine as a stand alone, but it's no where near the book. I love Meg Cabot so much and this is such a great book. Read it, defs.

I give this a 3.5 I was excited to start reading this book because I'm going through an emotionally stressful time in my life right now and I think this book was meant for me to read. I'm not one to read self-help books or really anything that doesn't involve fiction (who likes to read about reality? BOR-RING) but I had high hopes for this book since I know Shirley Strawberry is a sassy no non-sense type of person. I think most woman would be able to relate or take some advice from atleast one story in this book. I know I sure found some enlightenment with a few. Shirley doesn't preach to you like most self-help/advice books. She relates to each situation by telling us about situations she has faced through out her life, how she dealt with them and how she SHOULD have dealt with them. She mentions how she has made plenty of mistakes in her life and she's trying to help us from making those same mistakes. She includes quite a few letters she has received from listeners asking for advice and I must say some of them are pretty crazy! She even calls one of the letters a "ghetto hot mess!". It's crazy to hear some of the hardships others are going through but it is also encouraging when I hear that others have gone through my similar situation. It's good to know I'm not that only one who's been there dont that. I didn't get any kind of amazing life-changing advice out of this book but it sure was helpful and inspiring. I would totally recommend anybody to read this, whether they are going through a hard time right now or not because sooner or later we'll all need some advice to hold on to.

Biased but informative facts about figures such as Swift, Addison, Steele, Pope, and Sterne.

Good book but his tongue-in-cheek could use some downsizing.Regardless the story was interesting and enjoyable. His characters are over-the-top, and the names -- oh my gosh, crazy.

A fantastic book from a credentialed journalist. When I wanted to learn about racism in America I started to read about the Civil War. I got caught up in the battles and the tactics and the personalities and forgot about the issues of why it started. This book helped remind me. Some Americans still feel it was the "War of Northern Aggression." The Civil War affects our country and race every day. At one point in the book, the author attends a community meeting where children are taught Civil War "facts" such as that black slaves were treated well and were happy. Recommend the book to Civil War buffs as well as anyone that wishes to understand how history affects the present.

Having worked in politics, it was fascinating to see O'Brien dissect a political personality - the desire for acceptance and the need to please others / the need to feel loved that drives many politicianss. I think he captures the self-absorption perfectly. If you really want to get inside the inner workings of a character's mind and personality, this is an interesting read. O'Brien also does a great job of exposing the complexities of long-term relationships and showing how love & hate can exist side by side within a marriage. It's a very good book. While it's nowhere near as good as "The Things They Carried," I was constantly blown away while reading this at how well O'Brien got to know his character. Also, he presents the backstory in a very unique way by using fictional interviews with family members and former soldiers who served with the main character in Vietnam. In some ways, the story is presented like it is non-fiction, a very effective approach in this instance.

a right mix of funny, exciting and heart-warming. reminded me of "the mysterious benedict society" and "x-men" rolled up in one.
