This book is very disturbing in my opinion. It is clearly like watching a train wreck except worse. It's like watching a seemingly good person go evil right in front of your eyes. I kept reading only because I thought there was going to be some kind of twist at the end, like the main character was going to come out of a coma and find that everything was alright, and he was just dreaming it. I won't read another Scott Smith book. I read for intertainment and this book does not entertain. It does have a message but hopefully most of humanity already knows it and doesn't need something so savage to be reminded. This is the first book that I have finished that I have hated. Don't waste a credit.
