genre: science fiction
Scott Ellis has a problem. He's losing weight - a lot of it - and it doesn't seem to be...going anywhere. In his small, conservative town, he knows this isn't the sort of thing you share with just anyway, but luckily he's got a doctor friend he can trust with this...problem? Issue? Completely freaky "thing?" Another thread of this story is the two lesbian women down the street who have a restaurant and how all this connects is really all there is to this short novel.
Truth: I only read this because for a book challenge I had to read a Stephen King book.
Truth: It was sorta lame. The plot, the writing, I was expecting more, so much more. I figured - if the guy can make people be engaged for like EIGHT HUNDRED PAGES (which I knew I just couldn't do right now) then surely he'll be amazing at 200, right? Wrong.
I finished it thinking surely, there will be an epilogue or something that will freak me out, but no. How in the WORLD this one a Goodreads choice award for HORROR is completely beyond me. There is no horror at all. I got nothing.
