Welcome to Litsy!

‘They found the town silent, apparently abandoned.
But the terror had only begun in the tiny mountain town of Snowfield, California.‘

I bought this years ago and just finally got around to reading it. One of the best books I‘ve read by Dean Koontz.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!) Feel free to join in!

⭐⭐
Book 7 of 2022
My 29th Dean Koontz novel

So. Weird. ...It starts off really great, super creepy. Then about 2/3 in, I didn't really like the direction it was taking. Then it didn't take that direction at all and somehow that was even weirder. 🤷

This chapter title though. 😱😏

Pardon me while I try to wash my brain out. ACOTAR book 5 (the 37% of it that I made it through anyway) did a number on me. 😂😂🤷

📚 Phantoms by Dean Koontz. I'm only 3 chapters in but it's looking SO promising!!!

📚 A Court Of Wings And Ruin by Sarah J Maas 💔♥️

📚 The House Across The Lake by Riley Sager (6/21/22) 👏👏👏

Ohhh boy, this book! I've to say this book knocked me know. I don't remember to be so scared reading something like I was reading this one. Dean Koontz tell us a sinister tale of mass disappearance (tbh this is a subject quite intriguing for me and real cases of it are mentioned in the book!) of a small town. Atmosfere is build upon noises disturbing silence and unexpected events. Get ready for a hell of a ride!

I really liked this one. A bit creepy to be reading by myself after dark, but isn‘t that what horror is for!? The author has a note at the end about the writing of the book, which was also interesting

Chose this for my “book to screen” prompt in The PlayBookers. Really enjoyed this audiobook. I plan to watch the movie soon. The book follows the happenings when the residents of a whole town seem to vanish. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Currently reading Phantoms! This is my first time reading a book by Dean Koontz. I‘m so excited...and scared lol

I am so excited to be doing a creature feature #LMPBC #Round6 #GroupV read with you guys!
Pictured is a selection from my creature library. Do any of these (plus the tagged book) sound good to you? If not, I have many more to choose from.
I must warn you that Floating Dragon is almost 600 pages.

“There are silences and silences. No one of them is like another. There is the silence of grief in velvet-draped rooms of a plushly carpeted funeral parlor which is far different from the bleak and terrible silence of grief in a widower's lonely bedroom.”

Getting to know Koontz and his writing style was a wonderful journey. He's easy to read and incorporates truth into his books. The story of Phantoms is a captivating one with lovable characters, understandable descriptions and page turning intrigue. In the afterword he goes into more detail about how the book came to life and his label as a horror writer which I really enjoyed. And it turns out there is a movie! #booktomovie

🦖 SO many plans! Block party, winery anniversary party, REO Speedwagon concert, annnnnnnd yard work
🦖🦖 Mainly because it's taken up the whole month to finish. I had to read other books in between to take a break. It's good! But it's not my typical genre. And my first Koontz.
🦖🦖🦖 Onions are plane gross. #textureeater
🦖🦖🦖🦖 I competed in Debate team and Future Problem Solvers of America. Does that count? 😁

My very first adult horror book. I begged my mom to let me read it when I was like 15. I really regretted that lol. It terrified me but I literally couldn‘t stop reading it. I had nightmares for two weeks after I finished it. It was the most horrifyingly awesome book I‘ve ever read. A couple of years later I tried watching the movie....it was so lame compared to Koontz writing I shut it off after laughing at it. Koontz still terrifies me.

Jennifer Paige and her younger sister, Lisa, return to town to find it empty of all people and animals. The next several days they find themselves and the emergency personnel they were able to contact fighting an evil without a name. It was okay. Interesting evil, but none of the characters were stand out.

#Day14 of the #SpookyOctober #HalloweenCountdown #FrightFest #BookPhotoChallenge! Today's frightful pick is "Phantoms" by Dean Koontz. Don't read this one alone in the dark! ??

Let's see yours! Don't forget to tag me so I can see it! ?????☠️⚰️??
