I’m reading this during a read a thon, and the funny thing about read a thons is that you (or at least I) really push myself to read beyond my normal capabilities. This can also lead to a little bit of burn out; reading so much that you just HAVE to take a break or you’ll combust!Well, this little doozy right here really was a diamond in this epic load of books I’m trying to tackle. Short, a bit horrific, seriously good… The story starts out and I was wondering what was going to happen to this poor man who is seriously having some major issues. I mean, I have some nightmares but damn! This guy’s nightmares go way and beyond those of mine, which seem pretty tangible.As the main character you learn more and more about Jessie and his life. He is a regular guy with not so regular issues. I really liked him. I was worried he was about to make some serious mistakes but the guy is a great guy just trying to trudge through life. But there is so much more to this story than just what is on the surface, and it takes the entire book to figure it out, and what is going on with his Nightmare Man.AND as if the plot and the characters aren’t enough, the ending is absolutely wonderful. This is taken all the way through, no cliff hanger, total ending. Love it!Short, definitely not sweet, but totally to the point. Perfect for a fast read during a read a thon! Thank you Alan Ryker and thank you Darkfuse for allowing me to review this!
