THE CHOICE---NICHOLAS SPARKS

I usually like to read a good love story about every third book or so that I read. I am usually drawn to fast paced thrillers and then need to sit with a calm book like "The Choice" by Nicholas Sparks but this book is rather boring and ho-hum. I like Nicholas Sparks and he has written some really good books but he may have fallen asleep while writing this book. It is down right "silly" for at least the first nine chapters. The story starts to pick up and gets better in chapter eleven and it finishes o.k.

This is the first book I have read of Mr. Sparks that I didn't totally enjoy.
Sorry but on a scale of 1-10 in my opinion this one just gets a 5!!!!!!!

MIRROR IMAGE------DANIELLE STEEL

What would it be like to have a mirror twin? In this book by Ms. Steel the twins in this story are impossible to tell apart. They trade places with each other and have a good time doing this. This is also a love story, not only do the twins love each other but are envolved with the same man. It gets really interesting and has a surprise ending. I enjoyed the book very much and I have never been disappointed in one of Ms. Steel's books

JUDGE AND JURY----JAMES PATTERSON

This book was written with Andrew Gross. Well written and very suspenseful!!! I love suspense and thrillers and this one does'nt disappoint anyone. The F.B.I. agent in this book "Nick Pellisante" will go to the end of the earth to get his man. It's hard to put the book down. Another thing I like about James Patterson's books is that the chapters are very short. Some chapters are only a page long. This makes it easy to follow and gives you a stopping place when you do have to put the books down for awhile.

This book Judge and Jury is all about a mafia king that is very hard to convict. He tell "Nick" that he will have to come to the end of the world to find him. But Nick doesn't let that stop him.

For all James Patterson fans this is a must read. If you are not a fan now you soon will be for Mr. Patterson never disappoints, he always delivers a new and wonderful book.

THE DIVIDE----NICHOLAS EVANS

This book is one of the best I have read in a long time. There is nothing about it that is monotonious or boring. It covers so many different things in real life. From love to terriorism. There is such a special love story here. It shows how a normal family can go from such innonence to a completely different life. It is a must read for anyone who enjoys reading as much as I do. I hope you want miss this book.

Mr. Evans is also the author of THE HORSE WHISPERER, THE LOOP, and THE SMOKE JUMPER.
