Historia
When Lane Coolman's car is bashed from behind on the road to the Florida Keys, what appears to be an ordinary accident is anything but (this is Hiaasen!). Behind the wheel of the other car is Merry Mansfield - the eponymous Razor Girl - and the crash scam is only the beginning of events that spiral crazily out of control while unleashing some of the wildest characters Hiaasen has ever set loose.

Entertaining

Hiaason is always a good read and Razor Girl keeps up with his usual array of zany characters and equally zany plot twists. Thanks again, Carl.

Enlightening
Revisado: 06-12-20
I didn't know much about the man behind my Tesla. It's encouraging to know that there are still people out there willing to fight for the right to make a positive difference in our lives. The book is well written and informative.

Historia
Reacher is on a Greyhound bus, minding his own business, with no particular place to go and all the time in the world to get there. Then, he steps off the bus to help an old man who is obviously just a victim waiting to happen. But you know what they say about good deeds. Now, Reacher wants to make it right. An elderly couple have made a few well-meaning mistakes, and now they owe big money to some very bad people. One brazen move leads to another, and suddenly Reacher finds himself a wanted man in the middle of a brutal turf war between rival Ukrainian and Albanian gangs.

Reacher is great
Revisado: 12-13-19
The story is typical Reacher action, although he seems to be getting a little more hard core as he ages. Scott Brick could read the phone book (anybody remember phone books?) and it would be entertaining. The only fault that I found in this story is the unbelievable nature of a key part of the book. Without giving too much away, Reacher is trying to help an elderly couple who have financial problems. The way they developed these problems is just not believable. It distracted from the story as it kept coming up as an issue.

Given up on Grisham
Revisado: 12-13-19
I used to enjoy John Grisham's novels and the man still knows how to write. It's what he writes that is so disappointing. I read Bleachers and I thought it was some type of pitch for a soap opera. At that time, I felt that Bleachers was the last straw; as I thought that Grisham's work was on a steady downward spiral. However, I read the reviews on this book and I thought I'd give it a chance. What a mistake. He uses the novel as a platform to rail against the unjust nature of our legal system. He's like a dog with a bone on the subject and he won't let it go. It was a political commentary, not a book with any direction. I'm done.

Historia
When I first met Susie, she appeared to be a normal, happily-married woman dealing with tragedy. Then I uncovered her secrets. While I could understand everything that she’d done, I could never approve. But, knowing what she was capable of, it became clear that if I was going to survive her, I had to play by her rules. And, the first and most important rule is...leave no singing bones.

Slow and steady
Revisado: 09-30-19
A slow pace with only a few surprises. A nice ending but an implausible story from the get go.
