Dana Donovan grew up in New England where folklore and superstitions can mold a town’s history as much as its people. He exploits that phenomenon in all his books, perpetuating the enigma of small town life and the belief in all that dies is not dead.

    Wild and Off Beat. Loved it!

    Skinny is a sometimes funny, sometimes scary and most of the times weird book about a regular guy that takes a wrong turn into a sort of twilight zone. This is the book that got me started on Donovan's books. Some of the scenes are downright heart-pounding. At one point I had to put the book down, it freaked me out that badly. And I don't freak easily. Unlike the author's Detective Marcella Witch's series, which I absolutely love, this book has no real mystery to solve. It's more like a bad dream that our protagonist needs to awake from. Unfortunately for him, there is no easy awakening. My take-a-way? Get it. It will make a fine addition to your Nook shelf.
