2-12 False Memory


One of the best books I have ever read was by Dean Koontz, it is called false memory. It’s about Martie and her best friend Susan. She takes Susan to weekly therapy sessions because she suffers from agoraphobia, the fear of being out in the open. Then Martie begins to suffer from autophobia, the fear of oneself. She doesn’t understand what is happening to her and she is scared she will hurt someone she loves. She has to find out what is happening to her and why. The deeper she searches the more things become unbelievable. I would love to go back and read this book. I have forgotten a lot of the story. I remember the main points and I believe I remember the ending. When I was done reading it I recommended it to several people, including my mother in law and my husband. They both read it and enjoyed it also. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it. I think Koontz is a great writer. Some of his stories are wonderful, but I have read a few that I didn’t like at all. The City was boring and I didn’t finish it. I also read the first two Frankenstein books, but they weren’t very interesting to me, so I doubt I finish the series. I do like the Odd Thomas series, but I didn’t like Brother Odd very much. I saw that he just published Saint Odd, which is the final book in the series. I will definitely read it and I hope it ends well, I like the character Odd. I tried to read 77 Shadow Street and didn’t like it either, so I didn’t finish it. I know that’s terrible, I should finish a book if I start it, but then again I don’t want to waste my time on something I don’t enjoy.
