American Nightmare par T.K. Murphy
I was given a complimentary copy for review. The premise itself is quite good. Mild mannered Bob loses his job and goes on a killing spree. The author did have some good ideas, however those ideas just didn't come together very well.

This was a nightmare to read not because it was scary but on how it was written. In one paragraph the author suddenly shifts perspectives and the author also has a tendency to repeat and rephrase. The last chapter is the most redundant chapter. It also feels rushed. Everybody in this story is a drunk. It was short but not engaging.

Interesting novella of the downward spiral of a middle aged man who has done the right thing all his life and ends up with nothing, that is until he finds a purpose. Not a bad story, couple of editing flaws that don't really detract, just made me have to reread the sentence context but wasn't a bad way to spend an hour in the sun.
I am a horror fan, but this book just wasn't so good. The idea of a 52 year old man losing everything due to downsizing and divorce, then cracking and going on a murder spree seems like it could be a good story. American Nightmare-I liked the title, the story telling wasn't horrible, but it was bad. There was a lot of repeating- Bob is a 52 year old man, ex wife an alcholic, handyman neighbor an alcoholic, cabin handyman an alcoholic.... This was a free e book, and I did read it pretty quickly-while waiting for an oil change and then finished up at home, but I wouldn't recommend it to any friends.… (plus d'informations)
