Query: What's the point?

I dove into the book with relish after hearing so much about Laymon's work. Being that it was the first of his books I'd read I kept a very open mind. The first 100 pages or so were very good and after that I let myself be pulled along by the story. Really feeling that all of this inconsequential stuff was building up to something. By the last 10 pages I was thoroughly disappointed by this story thinking, "What's the point he's trying to make." There wasn't even a climax to this story. Maybe all these folks are right. Maybe Laymon usually is a great writer but in my opinion "BITE" is a waste of 370 pieces of good paper. I give it one star simply for the effort he gives at seeing this story through. I'll eventually give Laymon another shot. But not anytime soon.
