A SPEED BUMP OF THRILLS...
REVIEW! "OVER YOUR DEAD BODY" OveryourdeadbodybyDavidL
Coincidentally, the author uses the word "Passive" to describe the voice of his main character which was my first impression as I read the intro. However the pace picks up and the story comes to life after reading through the first chapter. I was in a real life family setting preparing for the New Year's Eve celebration along with the Price family. The aroma of baked turkey wafted into my nose and awakened my senes. I invisioned clear mugs of eggnog flowing freely.

The story flowed nicely and stayed its course keeping me captivated and intrigued. However, the pace slowed a little in the middle where it seemed the author was anxious to get on with his own prose and seemed to rush through it. As a result, with just an accusation, character Janelle's attitude seemed almost unjustifiable thus making her behavior somewhat unbelievable. If Over Your Dead Body was meant to be a thriller, the story failed to build to a climax and instead rolled over it like you would a speed bump in the road. The events just seemed to happen. HOWEVER, as I continued to read, the protagonist found his voice again and I was more intrigued. As Preston's character took a walk farther onto the dark side, I couldn`t put the book down. I had to follow his murderous rampage all the way through to the end and all I can say is, Author DAVID L. YOU DARE LEAVE ME HANGING THIS WAY!? What happens next??? There must be a sequel! (smile).

Besides several formalities, Over Your Dead Body was a pretty good read!
