A good mystery that definitely kept me guessing. For personal reasons there were certain aspects of this book I didn't really like but it was overall a good book.

2.5/5 stars. So I normally fly through crime fiction novels and James Patterson books I normally get through particularly quickly, but this one took me forever to read.
I found the narrative to be quite repetitive and the plot not particularly exciting. They get an idea of who the killer is fairly early on (not going to say if they were correct) and then they spend a hell of a lot of time just trying to convince everyone else that they have the right guy.
I didn't hate it. It was okay. But I just had no want to read it so it made reading feel like a chore. Maybe I'm just going through a bit of a reading slump but whatever, I didnt enjoy this book very much and I'm kind of glad it's over :/

This was an enjoyable read. I listened to the audiobook, and I really enjoyed the book. I thought most of the story was thrilling and exciting, while there were some parts that I found the story a bit predictable. The short chapters kept me on the edge of my seat at times. The characters were great. I really loved Lindsay. I would love to have a best friend like her. She is awesome and I hope to see more growth from her character. I also really liked the action and thrilling moments of the book as well. It kept me interested in the story. I am really liking this series. I cannot wait to see where this series takes me, but I am enjoying the suspense, and mystery. Book 3, here I come. Overall, a great read.

Another light, easy and fun book! There is something about these "supermarket mysteries" that are so enticing that I just want MORE! I call them supermarket mysteries because you always seem to find these James Patterson novels in every supermarket in America and they sell like hotcakes! Sure, they aren't groundbreaking, earth shattering novels of literary merit, but Patterson has such a knack for writing these stories that they become addictive and at this point, I may need some Patterson AA intervention. Nah....it tastes too good; I'll just keep drinking the kool-aid that he is serving up!
