It was ok. I was expecting more based on the reviews & recommendations for this book. Not sure I'll invest the time in the next 2 in the series. It was a quick read, the narrator of the audiobook was really good. Most of the ‘jokes' revolve around sci-fi pop culture references (akin to Ready Player One which I started at some point & immediately hated & stopped reading). The middle was a slog & I contemplated just stopping, the ending picked up a bit though. There are some interesting story lines contained within here that I would have preferred to hear more about vs some of the actual plot lines the book is about. Saving grace is how short this was.
Engaging quick whodunnit my Dad passed along to me, fastest I've a read a book in a long time. How do you rate a book like this. It was a good read and I liked reading it but the writing style (which is what I typically fall for in a book vs story) was matter of fact and to the point. I feel like 3.5 stars fits.
I will likely read the sequel and maybe some other Patterson books.
Also, first actual paper book I've read in years.
I had no idea what the story was about before reading, just that it was a classic book.
It certainly not the story I expected, especially considering the actually meat of the story doesn't start until halfway through.
I guess it's a good book. I mean, technically it is, yes and it's a good story - Good in the sense of the message it portrays.
