The Other Emily by Dean Koontz

5.0

Wow. What a Twist of Events

This was on my first read by the author and honestly, I was immediately intrigued. The book is about 96 chapters in length with some really cool visual features between each part, along with the interactive front cover. Additionally, the narrator gave the book a sense of edginess as I read.

While I won’t spoil it for others, I did read many of the reviews which basically said that this wasn’t a good book or wasn’t the author’s best work. Since I haven’t read other books, I can’t say for sure, but it was heart wrenching in many areas and left me curious to know what would happen next. The main character was obsessed with Emily, so much so that he saw her in other people and everything reminded him of her. I read the book in 7 days, even with a busy schedule, so that says a lot about how much I enjoyed it.
