Disappointing!

Revisado: 12-06-24

After following this author for years, her books became so weird I stopped reading them. When I saw this one, since the title was different, I purchased it right away. However, I could hardly make myself read it with all the silliness of the characters. I had hoped the characters had grown up a bit. Even the ending was disappointing! So I’m through with this series. The only book I kept was the first one, which I have added to my Audible library and listen to it every few years.

My confusion keeping up with too many characters believing in a metaverse.

Story line too much like the last two books. Mass murders? Cyber-rape? Very disappointing!

Best book I’ve read in the last 5 years!

Beautiful writing; interesting setting; believable characters; excellent narration. Cassandra Campbell brings characters to life. I started listening to this book at lunch time and could not stop listening until I finished it at 2:15am!

Love Connelly but…….

Revisado: 10-14-21

I’ve read everything he’s written, but this one slipped by me. Glad it did bc after reading this one I would never have read another. This is one of the worst books I’ve ever read. It moves slowly and is a tedious listen. Unless you enjoy blood and guts and dirty cops, skip this one. You can always go back to it later. His other books offer so much more for your time and money!

Foreshadowing American’s Future

Revisado: 06-11-21

This WWII story about the easy Nazi takeover of Paris foreshadows what is happening in America today. DC already looks like a city in a third-world country.

I wanted to believe in the press........

Revisado: 10-12-20

Now my trust is shaken to the core. I might as well read the Inquirer. The press is all lies and retaliation thanks to the Left-Wing. Journalists have sold out to the politicians.

Best Political Book of the New Century!

Revisado: 09-17-20

Owens’ book should be mandatory reading for everyone! I’m a white female and retired college English instructor. For 20 years I heard poor-performing Black students tell me they didn’t want to speak “standard” English for fear they would be bullied by the Black community for “trying to be white.” Such a waste of creative and intelligent minds brought on by a nation of educators who had to please the Democrats to insure their jobs. Shame on Bloomberg for donating millions to support the election of the Leftist. What a difference that money would have made to the schools in NYC. Oh, excuse me, the Democrats don’t want to educate the Black children. Owens is correct: it took a white, loudmouth, brash NYC businessman to give voice to the Blacks! Thx, Candace! Now the ball is in the hands of the voters. I always told my students to vote for the candidate of their choice. If I were still in the college classroom, I tell them to vote straight-ticket Republican—to hell with the powers-that-be in DC! I no longer work for them or believe in them!

Too much wasted time!

Revisado: 06-13-20

Will never purchase another Patterson book because of the disruption of music, sound effects, and short chapters! Every scene sequence should not be a chapter break. Very disappointed in this book. It could have been a six-hour book without the added music and periods of silence between the 100+ 20-sentence chapters. Total waste of time only to have a disappointing ending.

Welcome back, Mr. Grisham!

Revisado: 10-21-19

I’ve read all of Grisham’s books and really enjoyed the earlier ones. But lately, his books seemed shallow. This book is now one of my favorites along with THE TESTAMENT and THE BROKER. Grisham is back on track with great characters and issues relevant to all times and all places. Michael Beck is a great narrator. I could not stop listening!
