Query: Not What I Expected . . .

Scott Smith gathered a great deal of attention with his genius thriller "A Simple Plan," which is still one of my favorite books ever, but seems to fall short with this one. Maybe it was because I was expecting something similar to his first book, but I really think he took a wrong turn somewhere with this novel. This book has all the qualities of a low budget, B-Rated horror flick and wasted a lot of paper putting them shamefully into action. Besides the lack of character depth, and rambling pages of the characters trying to treat their rotting cuts and broken limbs, the "evil" monster stalking the young men and women does nothing but bring cartoonish images in my head of "The Little Shop of Horrors." Don't waste your time with this one!
