Very Good but not Great Shocker

4 Stars
This is a case where a writers strength in a way can become a weakness.
The Town unfolds in predictable fashion. I say predictable because I have read several Bentley Little novels ...

Dust to Dust 101 reviews Tami Hoag
Bantam, 2000
Good, but not her best
+ good story but DARK + 4 and 1/2 Stars
IMO this bk. wasn't as suspenseful as some of her other books. There just wasn't much suspense & if there would have been more, I would have liked it more. The characters, plot & mystery, however were good.
Some people might not like the ending (it isn't happy). What bothered me about this ...

Standoff 91 reviews Sandra Brown
Grand Central Publishing, 2000
Obviously not a literary work of art.........
But it's still entertaining. I enjoyed the story. Sandra Brown writes books that are easy to read in a hammock.....less dramatic and cheesy than some other authors of books of this kind. It was fun to read.

+ A Review on "Switch" by Sandra Brown + Big Sandra Brown Fan
Although some say that this novel was predictable, I found it to be entertaining and an easy read. Don't get me wrong, there were some predictable parts, but there were also some extremely creative parts as well.
Briefly, the plot is as follows: twins (Gillian, one twin was undergoing invitro ...

False Memory 496 reviews Dean Koontz

LOVED THIS BOOK!
I listened to the audio book version of this - it was one of the best books I've listened to! I absolutely LOVED it! When the book was over, I felt a sad loss for my characters I've grown to know and love - especially Dr. Mark Ahriman. Yes, he was the bad guy, but he was so well written that it ...

ANOTHER HEGGAN SUCCESS!
This was another blockbuster novel by the new queen of suspense, Christiane Heggan! Heggan and Mary Higgins Clark are two of the best mystery novelists. Clark takes the readers more into the big cities like New York, where she has the big time cops solving crimes, while Heggan likes small-town ...

The Last Precinct (Kay Scarpetta) 391 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Putnam Adult, 2000
It's About Change..
+ The Last Precinct
Like the last book in the series, this one seems to get a lot of criticism. I don't understand. This book starts to tie some things together from the previous two books. Kay, and the other characters as well are not one dimensional, they have many layers. This book shows us that losing a loved one ...

The Walking 68 reviews Bentley Little

THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR WALKING...

Once again, this Bram Stoker Award winning author brings it home with yet another, highly inventive horror yarn. Stephen King is a fan of this author, as he has declared this book "the horror event of the year." This is high praise indeed from this venerable master of the horror genre, and rightly ...
