Ever wondered how the “bet” turned out, when I was to read one of my husbands books and he got to read two of mine. Well… I finished the book I had to read. Life Expectancy by Dean Koontz. If you like clowns you should read this book to find out the truth. If you, like me, have always been suspicious of clowns you should read this and realize that your suspicion was true all along.
The night Jimmy was born his grandfather made 5 predictions on his death bed. The 5 predictions came in the form of dates when extra evil events would force themselves on the grandson. The book is Jimmy´s story of these days.
My favorite character is the grandmother. She loves to take care of children and tell them stories. Often the regular fairy tales but with a twist of what she thinks is reality. The 7 dwarves were evil and the wolf really did eat the hunter as well, no rescue for little red riding hood. A grandmother just as mean as Dr. House!
Well written, I would definetly recommend it!
