Book Review: A Mixture of Great and Mediocre
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is difficult to put down on the parts that are good but is real slow and boring during some long interludes. Neal is an out of work writer who goes late at night to return some videos. On the way he happens on a woman being attacked by a madman. Neal rescues her shooting the madman but not verifying that the madman is in fact dead. Grateful the woman gives him a bracelet that makes him a kind of Dr. Strange where his asteral body lifts out of himself and can travel and actually enter another person. When the user is inside the other person he feels everything the other person feels and hears all the other person's thoughts.
Unfortunately, the madman (who Neal will nickname Rasputin) will come back and murder the woman. What follows is Neal experimenting with the bracelet, fleeing town to get away from the cops and Rasputin. Several things make it hard to really like Neal as he has a girlfriend who he insists he loves yet he falls in love with the woman he rescues and over the course of a day, he falls in love with two other women.
The book has some very well written parts and then other long drawn out parts especially love making scenes. I gave it four stars because when the book is good it mesmerizes you!
