So, a good book. Easy read..entertaining. But has anyone counted how many times he use the word "shrugged". Its completely madness, I am going to start on "Tripwire" now, and I fear that I will have to abandon the series if I keep getting the word "Shrugged" thrown at me two-three times a page. Is...

Good 3.5 stars for the second ReacherI remember reading this directly after finishing the first book in the series, Killing Floor. And I have to say, it took some time for me to really get into the story. The set-up was somewhat farfetched, but the plot grew on me the longer I read. The ending was a...

I want to start off by saying that I didn't hate this book. But I didn't feel like I liked it as much as the first. I think this was partly my fault, I spent a long time taking breaks from this one so that I could read others. I got distracted from the SL a lot and when I went back to it I continued...

In my review of the first Jack Reacher book, Killing Floor, I mentioned expecting these books to be more military in nature. Die Trying was closer to what I was expecting but still very much in the thriller genre which I enjoy.Some things I was happy about in this sequel: multiple POVs, better devel...

I'm trying to convince my boyfriend that reading is not boring, pointless, or just plain stupid, and so I'm on a quest to find him things to read that might change his mind. I have a feeling he may like Jack Reacher, so I'm going to re-read the series I think, just to make sure.It's a tricky busines...
