When summer is just around the corner, I start thinking about what books to take on holidays. Beach or pool is also important, but the real clincher are the books. And the first question on the agenda is which books should I bring? More important even than my destination, are the books I’m taking ...

Typical Reacher for you. As always, I liked this book. Tight writing, fast pace, action, suspense, twists and turns. Everything I need in a thriller is here. What I also enjoyed was Child's intuition for the time. Shortly after 9/11, we see a slightly different Reacher here. Whereas in previous book...
Reacher is at it again. This time, it take almost 90% of the book just to find "who did it". A few things are different in this one. One, he wore suit and tie.

So, Jack Reacher reads Fyodor Dostoevsky. But, unlike Fyodor, he admits that he doesn’t have the talent for words. So, he expresses his feelings towards the bad guys through the way, in which he has talent i.e. bashing them up. And, thats the reason I like Jack more than Fyodor(not that I have read ...
It's just a coincidence that I read this in November, during an election year. But it's kind of cool that I did. Reacher is contacted by a U.S. Secret Service agent to help with some threats against the new Vice President's life.Apparently, the problem is sort of complex so the agent needs input fro...
Ah...After a number of less-than-expected reads, it's nice to get back to a series that's consistently well written. This is one of a long series that I had somehow missed when it was released 10 years ago.Jack Reacher (who should, in no case, no how, ever be played in a movie by Tom Cruise - gag! ...
