Tripwire

Always worth a read

I do enjoy the Jack Reacher series and as we learn more and more about him and grow more and more attached as his personal story develops, i will continue to like him.

However, as with the other two, I've felt there's been a lot of padding out with the story. Unnecessary scenes where it's literally just someone getting undressed or another character excessively self depricating that doesn't advance the story or even their character personality that much.

I also found this particular one in the series not to have a lot of action. I think there were two major action scenes in the whole book which is a shame. But I must say the rest of the story kept me intrigued!

I've read 3 of these novels in the last 3 days with Tripwire completing my holiday weekend. This one in particular is tons of fun! I feel like the author is really getting into the groove and building out Reacher's web of relationships. I'm really interested to find out how these hold up 10 books from now. :) If you like Saturday afternoon Action Movie matinees and roller coasters then I'm willing to bet you will enjoy this book (and likely the series in general).

Another nice entry, full of women with long legs and men with pecks strong enough to stop a bullet. What's not to like?
Out of the 3 books in the series I've read so far, this one had the most disgusting villain. Made my skin crawl and I kinda wish he had died more violently and suffered longer before that.
This book also ended quite differently than the other two. Which makes me slightly nervous about the next book.
Love this series though. Makes me feel like I'm 14 again and watching ridiculous action movies full of stereotypes. Good times!
