Comments: This is the first Patterson book I've read and it did not disappoint. The twist was decent and it kept me interested throughout the read. I'm going to go back and read the previous book in the Michael Bennett series next. A serial killer is on the loose in Manhattan killing off rich and successful people during broad daylight. Very fun mystery novel.

Comments: She's still a ho, but this book isn't quite as centered around Chelsea's sexual exploits and is more focused on the fact that she is a compulsive liar. The pranks she pulls on people are epic again making this a quick runny read.

Comments: What a ho! Chelsea is a complete and total mess in this book, but damn if it doesn't make for a funny read. Who knows how much of this is actually true, but it did make me laugh and killed off a plane flight to Texas with ease. A nice quick read that will make you chuckle for a few hours.

The Girl Who Played with Fire, by Steig Larrson

Comments: An even better novel than "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". This second in the series of three starts out much stronger that the first and continues strong to the end. A very interesting read and another great novel that has you wanting to turn the page. Get more information on the background of Lisbeth Salander and her struggle to prover her innocence in this excellent story. The only problem with reading this novel right now is you'll want to get the third in the series right away, and it's not due out until May of 2010.

Comments: If you have read Angels and Demons and The DaVinci Code, this book is a rinse and repeat. Using the same exact model as his previous two best sellers, Dan Brown again writes an interesting, albeit a bit predictable, novel about hunting some mythical lost treasure. The model is played and the style is overdone (by both Brown and others); however the book is interesting, intriguing and most of all fun. I enjoyed the read despite the lack of originality.

Comments: A young girl disappears on an island while the only road off the island is blocked. An interesting cast of characters and a fabulous plot in this wonderful who done it novel. I highly recommend this book for anyone looking for a gripping read and who done it.

Comments: AWFUL! I waited YEARS for the completion of this series and was horribly disappointed. Koontz appears to have gotten tired of the constant badgering about the book and put out pure trash just to get it done. I will be hard pressed to read another Koontz novel because of this experience.

Comments: Ok. This one got quite a bit far fetched. I felt like Stephenie didn't think through how this thing was going to end until it was too late. The novel and overall series was still excellent, but this book was a touch too out there for me. It did resolve all plot points well and was still a decent read.

Comments: The merging of the two and the realization that all is not great in this love triangle. The series continues strong.

Comments: Book two was just as good as the first in the series. The second love interest adds a nice counter to the Edward's style and grace.
