So I have read the first of the Odd Thomas books, and while I didn't love it I would have rated it readable and at least enjoyed the characters of the book. I am about 10 pages away from finishing the 2nd book and honestly can say I haven't read a book that I thought was more of a waste of time and un-enjoyable in a long time. I mean the whole book is basically Odd seeking or running, and having on-going narrative with himself in a strange POV. Are the rest of the series worth reading, or was the first by far the best?
