Book Reviews of 3rd Degree (Women's Murder Club)
Book Review: Clumsy, laughably fast
Summary: 1 Stars
This is the most poorly written books I have read in years. The dialog and behaviour of the hero has me laughing every couple pages (not good for a thriller) The 111 "chapters" are often one page long, which may tell you something. The romance between the characters develops in a matter of a couple hours. The plot is awkward, and flits from place to place as if they are trying to condense 1000 pages of plot into ten pages. The plot of even bad episodes of Law & Order have more content and hang together better than this. I am hoping that the problem is that the second author wrote most of this, since no bestselling author should write this badly.Book Review: IT'S A WOMEN'S WORLD
Summary: 2 Stars
The main plot of terrorists within the USA going after people they believe are harming the world is ok, but nothing really inventive. The story loses a great deal of crediblity when one of homicide detective Lindsay Boxer's friends is murdered and she is not pulled from the case. Heck, one of her other friends performs the autopsy as she watches.
I wasn't a big fan of one of the main character themes in this book. Basically, it is written from the point of view that all men are either abusive and evil, or nice but stupid. Talk about sucking up to the women readership. Meh.
Book Review: Disturbing
Summary: 5 Stars
Third in Patterson's Women's Murder Club opens with a house bombing. Lindsey Boxer is there when it happens and rescues the sole survivor. Suddenly the Murder Club is in the midst of a crime spree initiated by a waco group too remniscent of present day anti-american terrorist groups. The case turns ugly and the women find their lives at risk. Patterson is a best selling author because he delivers outstanding action, authentic dialogue and a maze of surprises guaranteed to keep you turning the pages. He excelled with book three.

Summary: 5 Stars
i absolutely love James Patterson!!! In this 3rd installement of the women's murder club 3rd degree is a book you dont want to put down. Each chapter leaves you wanting more i couldnt wait to see the ending. The part I did not expect was when they killed off the d.a jill. I didnt expect that to happen and although it isnt going to be the same main 4 characters I know he probably wouldnt have done it if he had to. so in all i give this book 5 out of 5 i highly recommend itBook Review: Good Escape Reading
Summary: 4 Stars
Not exactly books that will titilate the mind, but they are great to just get away and escape into someone else's live. I love these books when I need to just kick back and relax and not think. The characters are well written and the books can be alternately humorous, giddy, saddening, and sickening. This book especially made me want to throttle the author. You just never know where he's going to take these characters.
