One of the things I love about buying books and not reading them right away is that by the time I read them, I forget what they are about. OMG was that the case with this book! I thought it was going to be a run-of-the-mill action/mystery book like most of James Patterson's books, and I was so wrong! It takes place in the future!
Toys revolves around Hays Baker. He and his wife are Elites, a class above humans (called skunks in the book). Elites can hear better, run faster, and smell better than humans. The Bakers are rich, powerful and have a wonderful life...until everything changes one night. Suddenly Hays is on the run and his whole life is turned upside down.
I seriously couldn't put this book down. I had to know what was going to happen to Hays...if the bad guys were going to get him...etc. I finished the book in about 24 hours. It would be great if James Patterson wrote more novels in this futuristic genre.
