Book Reviews of The Woods
Book Review: Harlan Coben-Still The Master of The Thriller
Summary: 5 Stars
This is another one of Coben's books that will suck you in and not let you go until the very last page. It was not quite at the level of Gone For Good, but what is? He used a familiar theme of missing person, but the story is different from Tell No One or Gone For Good. The plot still works wonderfully. I think in this book he creates even better characters that the reader pulls for. You know that whenever you read a Harlan Coben book that you will be up all night reading it and highly entertained even in an emotional way. This one is no exception, The Woods is worth of 5 stars.Book Review: Harlan is amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
At my age, where has Harlan Coben been all my life? Why have I missed this wonderful author? This book is one of the best I have ever read. Chubby Checker and his "Twist," has nothing on the twists, turns, lies and deceit that Coben comes up with in this story. It continues to grab you from the first page right up to the last, and I am still not sure what will happen next, even after the book is finished. This is one I would highly recommend. I am off to the bookstore, to find another one of his great books, as I am hooked. WOW!!!!!!Book Review: I could not put it down
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this novel yesterday morning and started reading it around 2 in the afternoon. At 1:30 AM my wife was begging me to turn off the light so she could sleep - but I had 50 pages left to go! I finished it a bit later... "Honey, the longer you disrupt my reading, the longer it is going to take for me to finish"!
Was the book flawless, no - but it was good read, full of surprises and had a great ending... I really enjoyed it!
Book Review: I doubt I will be purchasing any other books by 'HARLAN COBEN'
Summary: 2 Stars
Okay here's is my very own thoughts. This book started out a bit interesting in the first two or three chapters. But then after that, then came the introduction of all these other different characters. This just completely lost me! The most annoying thing about this book is when the writer used all these strange words and acronyms such as KGB and the list goes on and on. I mean how does he expect the reader to understand some of the things written in this book? There were times when this book actually held my attention and other times where no matter what, it would just not keep me interested. The entire plot/storyline of this book became so, extremely confusing to the point where I just wanted to throw this book away or burn it. And I find this camp thing very childish. Here you have a story about some teens being murdered AT A SUMMER CAMP because a girl teased a guy? I mean it's just soo ugh! So childish and stupid!This story was for me, extremely complicated. And I do not look forward to purchasing anymore Harlan Coben books. But if you are an individual who likes to buy and read foolishness then yes I highly recommend this piece of garbage to you! And also I did not like the ending too much. This could have been much better!Book Review: I said nothing
Summary: 4 Stars
I listened to this book on DVD in my car. I looked forward to driving to work just so I could listen to another few chapters. My only complaint--and this may be more annoying to a listener than a reader--the lines: "I said nothing" "She said nothing" "He said nothing." Authors, give it a rest. I have started counting the number of times that sentence is repeated in books. Coben isn't the only one to do it--but he made a run for first place with this book.
