Solid Psychological Suspense novel

Revisado: 08-06-18

This was a solid 3.5 stars for me. The narrator did a good job, although she didn't really differentiate between any of the three narrators. The story itself was nothing groundbreaking, multiple POVs, small jumps in time, the mystery unraveling right up until the final chapter. There was a definite twist at the very end, and I didn't see it coming, but it wasn't a jaw-dropping twist. I would say my biggest issue with the book was that I really didn't like any of the main characters. Overall, glad I listened, would recommend it for a quick psychological suspense listen, but don't think I'll ever need to listen or read it again.

Entertaining listen for Princess Bride Fans

Revisado: 08-19-16

Great little read for any fan of The Princess Bride. I suppose if you are a die hard fan you may have already known many of the fact Elwes gives the reader, but as a big fan that hasn't reached hard core levels, it was quite informative and entertaining.

CS Lewis/JK Rowling Mashup, but not nearly as good

Revisado: 08-16-16

Solid 3.5 for me. I didn't love this book, but I didn't dislike it either. At times I thought, 'this is pretty cool!' But then at other points I just felt like the author mashed CS Lewis and JK Rowling together and this is what popped out. Undecided if I'll continue listening to the series, but since I'm a 'completionist' by nature, it'll likely happen at some point.

Great thriller needs to lose the romance

Revisado: 06-26-16

Title says it all. The love scenes ruined the flow of a really good thriller. Docked a star from overall for that despite a good performance and good overall story. If you like steamy love scenes mixed into a good thriller, you'll probably like this book.

Entertaining quick listen

Revisado: 05-18-16

Great short read, didn't want to put it down once I got started. It wasn't particularly thrilling, just very well written and highly entertaining.

Great Book

Revisado: 05-13-16

Fun book, didn't want to stop listening to it. It was a great political techno thriller. This story line was very personal for Gibson Vaughn, so I'm not sure where his story will go from here, but this one was done well enough that I'll certainly be going along for the ride!!

Solid but unspectacular

Revisado: 05-06-16

Was hoping for a little more suspense, a little more mystery, and that moment when you realize the author fooled you; but it just wasn't there. It was a solid book, just nothing to rave about.

Give me the next book soon!!

Revisado: 05-02-16

Fun science fiction, with unique journal style narration. The journal style chapters definitely made for pacing that made the book hard to put down. If I have one major gripe with the book, it's that it spent much of the book literally building and then did not really climax as I was hoping. This book is clearly setting things up for future installments. This is fine, so long as I don't have to wait too long for the next book!!

Narration was great, I loved the voice cast and they all did an outstanding job.

Just as good as the first Decker book!

Revisado: 04-25-16

Much like The Memory Man, I loved this book. Amos Decker is such an interesting character, with his obvious memory gift/curse, but also all the other things about his personality that make him unique. I must admit that I figured many things out ahead of there reveal, but that didn't prevent me from enjoying the journey.

Great for runners, great for all

Revisado: 04-18-16

As a dedicated runner, Tom's accounting of his trials during his 'year' really hit the note for me. The books is funny and truly an easy read/listen. I actually listened to it while running and recovering from a hamstring injury and was a great book to remind me of a few things that I personally needed for my rehab. If you are a runner, you should definitely read this. But even if you are not, it is entertaining enough for just about anyone to enjoy.
