What the? Huh? Yup my first one-star book of the year and it took an unheard of week to read and seriously I really tried to get into this one and was sadly super sadly disappointed..I thought from the beginning I was getting a Beauty and the Beast retelling and then when elements of the supernatural crept in I still was willing to ride, when another strange secluded girl comes in the picture and there seems to be a friendship/romance I was with it but when they never fully explain anything, when nothing is truly elaborated on and when I finish over 330 pages of dribble I get super annoyed..Why isn't anything explained?!! Okay so this is the story of Addison Goodheart a never fully defined deformed? person who lives on his own beneath the city banished because of his appearance and forced to live in the night and all alone when he comes upon a similarly secluded woman afraid of people and in her own sort of secluded world and the two form a friendship where she cannot look at him and he cannot touch her..Its like a Beauty and the Beast vibe until Addison explains that he can see spirits evil ones "Fogs" and seemingly good one "Clears" along with some demented marionette dolls that come up frequently in the book..but again here's the thing there is a lot of theoretical moral talk about innocence and the fight between good and evil but there is never any real answers I found..I mean what does Addison look like? What really were the Fogs and Clears besides people's conscious roaming around? What was up with the vague silly marionettes? And how and why did they get married in the end oh and also for the love of God why is there even mention to an ebola virus/plague with that wack ass villain Teleford who steals antiques and items from the library? I know I cant even adequately describe the book and maybe I didn't understand it..I do recall reading good Dean Koontz but this one---Boo.
