James Patterson Finally Writes The Female Side Of Alex Cross

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: Easy, accessible reading perfect for lazy summer afternoons. And the second book is even better.
Review: After creating a highly successful detective series around Washington detective Alex Cross, former advertising executive James Patterson turned to a familiar protagonist in his latest series a woman detective. But unlike Agatha Christie, Patterson...

The Newlywed Game

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2002
The Bottom Line: Don't bother, unless someone gives it to you and you are bored.
Review: I lightly brush the barrel of the revolver down my cheek and then up to my temple again. Oh God, oh God, oh God. I am reminded of soft hands, of Chris, and that starts me crying again

Ok, this book might be pretty good. So, I find myself...

1st To Die - The first book in the Women's Murder Club series

Date of Review:  Oct 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: The first book in a series is sometimes not the best. In this case, I think Patterson did pretty well.
Review: James Patterson's 1st To Die is the first book in what would come to be known as the Women's Murder Club series. This is the book where the four women first get together and decide to form a club, where they each contribute their resources to help...

Forming the Women's Murder Club

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2009
The Bottom Line: I found myself engrossed in the book despite its flaws.
Review: Given my general dislike of graphic violence or sex, I have avoided James Patterson. Still, I was curious enough when his Women's Murder Club novels were turned into an ABC show last season to watch. I found myself enjoying them enough that when a...

Wedding bell blues in 1st To Die

Date of Review:  Jun 22, 2001
The Bottom Line: This book has some of James Patterson's signature talents of timing and twists. Unfortunately, it's got details which are difficult to believe and ends in a cliche.
Review: Wedding plans can be exciting. Some brides dream for
years of choosing a dress. They visualize how they
will look on their special day. If you're a mystery
writer, it's a perfect setup. Take a fitting for the
perfect dress. Then...

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2001
The Bottom Line: Fast-paced, pulse-pounding suspense.
Review: Like many book lovers, we are constantly looking for the perfect book. To find a good book, is to find one that we cannot put down ... even for a moment. James Patterson, almost always, seems to blend the perfect amount of suspense with a pinch of...

1st to Die - A roller coaster ride!!!!

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2003
The Bottom Line: Just when I thought I had solved everything, Patterson would add more to the ingredients - this books kept me going up and down - just like a roller coaster.
Review: A women's murder club consisting of a homicide detective, reporter, assistant district attorney and medical examiner - formed to track down a killer who is killing brides and grooms shortly after their wedding. Four women, living in a mans world...

First to a New Series

Date of Review:  May 3, 2001
The Bottom Line: Another triumph for JP and his excellence in murder mystery writing. Perhaps another screenplay in the works.
Review: OK OK I am an avid James Patterson(JP) fan so let me say that so that you know where I am coming from. For my time and money, JP is the best murder mystery writer today bar none. I have read not all, but many of his prior novels. Most of the Alex...

The Joy Luck Murder Club

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2001
The Bottom Line: This would be fair 'beach reading' by an unknown author but Patterson will likely make millions from this new cast of substandard characters.
Review: Any book cover with a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge or any other San Francisco landmark immediately catches my eye. That is how I first saw the latest release of James Patterson. I picked it up and read the inside cover which talked about a team...

Girl Power! The Creation of the Women's Murder Club

Date of Review:  Jan 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a good murder mystery.
Review: I am a huge James Patterson fan, and with this book, First to Die, he did not disappoint me!
The book begins with the killing (or rather, the discovery of the killing) of a bride and groom in their hotel room. It appears as though the groom is...
