There is a reason why I was hook line and sinker after reading Black Hill  Farm,by Tim O'Rourke , back in 2011. I will drop any book I am reading at the moment to read any of Tim's books. He has such a unique and mysterious writing style that I have never read before. Time and time again Tim takes me away from my daily life and sends me off on adventures that make my head spin, scare the crap out of me, make my stomach turn,make me laugh,cry, relate to the characters, and most of all leave me guessing. He really makes my brain work over time and I love every moment of it.  With that being said, Dead Push was no different. I don't want to give too much away, so I will explain how the book made me feel. In the beginning I felt elated,surprised,proud,and sad ( in that order). As the story moved along, I was once again surprised and very impressed with Tim's imagination. I was also extremely excited because I have missed a character very much and I knew they were going to make an appearance once again. At this point the story goes from past to present - in a way- from a different point of view which was bittersweet. Now let me talk about Jack Seth.This creature is the worst of the worst of monsters. Up until Dead Seth, I wanted the guy dead,just like the title, but that book left me with a better understanding of why he turned so evil.It made me extremely heartbroken with what he went though. Then we move on to Dead Water, once again, I hated the guy! Then we have Dead Push...I can not tell you how many times I hated and liked this man in this book! I probably have whiplash. Lol. I guess you can say I am now relieved with how things turned out with him and more I'm on the like side.Yes, there is a major cliffhanger, but Tim is notorious for them. Lol. It just makes me all the more giddy to read Dead Lost and to continue to try to think the way Tim thinks to figure out the answers I need. Which is an impossible task because the man is a story-puzzling genius! Oh yeah..this book -in my opinion - has the funniest content of all of his books!
