Think of it on a scale of 1-10. High floor means it’s not a stinker, so worst ranking would be in the 4/10 - 5.5/10 range. Low ceiling means it’s not going to be an all-timer, so the best ranking would be in the 6/10 - 7.5/10 range. Basically you’ll never HATE it, but you’re also never going to LOVE it.
What is a high floor low ceiling book?

Seems more like a description of the author than a particular book.
It could be, all his stuff is extremely similar. He reuses character archetypes and narrative shifts throughout most of his stories.
Early on in his career it wasn’t as bad but he’s been churning them out for awhile.
I’ve never read any of his books. Top 3? Just the titles. I’ll go in blind.
I’ve only read two of his series but enjoyed both a good deal.
Odd Thomas (first book shares title with the series)
Frankenstein (first book is Prodigal Son)
