This was so good.  I mean, I guess I knew it was good because it's so popular, but I just didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did.  I am definitely going on to book 2 to find out more about Jack Reacher and his life.  I love how much we learned in this one, but I also think Child did a great job of giving us some but not enough about him so that we are forever curious.  I also liked how it was wrapped up at the end and yet still open ended.  Definitely going on to book 2!!
