Title: Bad Beginning, Horibble Middle, Dreadful Ending
Product review: "The Taking" was a complete waste of time. The beginning was dull and tiresome to read. Molly and Neil are boring as individual characters and they have no chemistry as a couple. There was no point in bringing Michael Render in the book either. He brought no excitement, no twist to the story. Render was a waste of 10 pages of reading time.I had to read the first chapter over and over just to get a jump start on the story. It did not draw me into the book and make me crave for more. It actually did the opposite. I wanted to stop reading it, but I decided to give it a chance. I figured once I got to the middle, the story would take off, but it never did. The only reason why I read it to the end was because I thought Koontz might have a twist or something at the end that would tie the whole book together, but he didn't.Total disappointment.
