The Da Vinci Code 3866 reviews Dan Brown
Anchor, 2006
Calm down people!
+ Women beyond belief
I haven't read this book in a long time, but I feel obligated to write a review due to the vast amount of controversy over it.
First, let me just tell you my impressions of the book. I found it riveting to read. It is definitely a page-turner which keeps you hooked until the very end. The ...

Bone Thief 24 reviews Thomas O'Callaghan
Pinnacle, 2006
Yes, it's that good.
+ Andrea Gerhard where are you?
It only makes sense, that with so many books published every year, that there will be a few winners, and a lot of losers.
This one is a winner.
Personal note: I don't hand out five stars on a novel very often; I reserve them for the reads that deserve it.
What's my criteria for five ...

Shadow Prey 51 reviews John Sandford
Berkley, 1991
Underrated entry in a great series
+ shadow prey + Shadow Prey
Joh Sandford himself has said that Shadow Prey is one of the least popular books in the series, but it's one of my favorites. Its premise is similar to that of Sudden Prey in that you have a group of villains whose motives are at least understandable, if not laudable, and that ambiguity nicely ...

Good Morning, Killer 20 reviews April Smith
Pinnacle Books, 2004
Something Different
+ Another Wonderful Ana Grey Story + Complex and involved
While I certainly understand why this book would not appeal to the average pulp fiction reader, I really enjoyed it because the protagonist was *not* the stereotypical female we've all come to know in the various series that are out there. In fact, I was reminded of Lorraine Page of the ...

The Surgeon: A Novel 159 reviews Tess Gerritsen
Ballantine Books, 2002
I'm a new fan!
+ Great Book, But. . .
I had never heard of Tess Gerritsen prior to Amazon offering a free Kindle download of "The Surgeon." It sounded interesting, so I gave it a try. I'm so glad I did!
As another reviewer stated, it was similar to the style of "Silence of the Lambs" or "Hannibal." Each of the main characters are ...
