Review: Origin

Origin Origin by Dan Brown
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I read these because I am a Tom Hanks fan more than a Dan Brown fan. That being said, you get what you expect. Predictability.

If you're looking for a read that is not challenging, then this is it. Sit back and just be entertained.

Review: Don't Let Go

Don't Let Go Don't Let Go by Harlan Coben
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I had been anxiously waiting this release and all I can say is that Harlan Coben does it again ladies and gentlemen!

The lead, Nap Dumas, deals with loss, real emotion and mystery to uncover the real truth of what happened to his twin fifteen years ago. Harlan Coben draws out the suspense and puts you in the midst of this small town tragedy. Even though I suspected the ending about 3/4 of the way in, I enjoyed reading how it unfolded. I was thrilled with the cameo of our much loved Myron.

I am never disappointed with this master of his craft!

Review: The Snowman

The Snowman The Snowman by Jo Nesbø
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I read this so that I could slag the movie....KIDDING!

I did want to read it before the movie release. I enjoyed it but couldn't picture Michael Fassbender (swoon!) as Harry Hole and that is the main reason i might enjoy the movie more!

It did lack the urgency of other serial killer novels but that is not a bad thing. I suspect this is a more realistic pace of an actual investigation. I look forward to reading more from Jo Nesbo.
