The Black Book by James Patterson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
On a total mystery kick lately. I am reading everything David Ellis wrote with or without Patterson.

I enjoyed reading this YA novel. I don’t read much YA anymore but this one was lovely. Real issues, relatively realistic dialogue.
i love Ali Hazelwood. She’s just fun. I don’t care that they are always similar. I enjoy them.
i don’t know why i do this to myself. why?
I read this book to see if I liked Pittard’s writing and wanted to read another book by her. I also thought, of course, that the story was crazy and wanted to know more. It’s interesting that all 4 of them are writers and both of them wrote a book about it. Her writing is sharp and stays with you.
Regardless of whether you’re an engineering manager, or any kind of manager (in our outside of tech) you will find this book to be valuable. It’s grounded in knowing who you are, caring about your team and creating a meaningful dynamic. There are so many small and big things you can take away from this book if you’re a first time manager or a really seasoned one. Highly recommended.
I really liked this story but I listened on audio and, for me, the narration was terrible. It was flat, british accent that made it super hard for me to follow or care for some reason. I did love how the story all came together in the end.
It’s really interesting how short and different the book is compared to the movie. The book is more like a character study. Shows you how much a movie can diverge. And sometimes the movie is so much more popular.
i loved reading about this and I feel incredibly sorry for Kinsella. I really hope she is the major major exception so she can write another story one day about how she completely beat this.
I love SA Cosby’s books. They are always exceptional. Great story, great writing, great characters. You can’t help but get sucked into the story and they are always exceptional. Highly recommended.
Burkeman does it best. His books are changing the way I think, the way I feel and the way I live. What more could you possibly want from a book?
This was slow. It was ok but, in my opinion, it wasn’t amazing. Maybe I am just too used to huge twists. It did entertain me so there’s that. |
