This book was longer than it needed to be in my opinion. I had to try twice to read it, the first time I was so bored and HATED the characters. Second try I finished it. The second half of the book picked up a little more to at least make me wonder how it would end. By the time I got to the end I was left feeling like “that’s it? That’s how we leave it?” And I STILL hated the characters. I can’t say I really enjoyed the book itself but I did like that I actually couldn’t figure out where it was going. I’ll definitely try another book by the author, maybe one I have heard anything about, no hype to raise expectations.

Such an amazing book! I’m not an emotional person and this one just kept making me have feelings. Karin Slaughter is a fabulous writer

I loved this book! It's not a type of book I would typically read but I was completely enthralled by it. I couldn't put it down!

I don't think that Jack Reacher is for me. His deductions seem almost Sherlockian and I don't really find the romantic relationship very believeable at all. I still don't really see the point of the Blind Blake story at all. I usually read quite a bit of crime fiction but I just found this very lackluster for me. I should not have been so bored during the action scenes.

This is the first time I have read Pet Sematary. I fell like King really kept his focus on the story without bogging down to much on the details in this one. This would definitely be near the top of my favorite works by SK.

There was just nothing I liked about this book
