I think it was "When the Wind Blows" and I have it's sequel "The Lake House" but I haven't started it yet because I am reading John Sandfords "Broken Prey". His "Prey" series is awesome. I shuffle between those two and Dean Koontz. If you haven't read "Wind Blows" yet, then may I say "please do". It was great, with a great ending. Very climactic.

I agree. Some of Koontz's books drag on & on, but in the end, he hasn't had too many that I don't want to read again.

I read When the Wind Blows! AWESOME! I also have quite a few Dean Koontz, but he really does add too much to a story and it is pages and pages and pages before he gets to the point. That is why I like James Patterson so much, he keeps you there the whole way through the book. Very fast readings! It sounds like I need to check out John Sanford too.
Thank you for your response!

I can't remember the name of the last one I read...I think it might have been Kiss the Girls. I thought it was great, and I would like to see the movie now (haven't seen either of the Cross movies)
I like his Alex Cross books, but I've read the first one Women's Murder Club series and while it was a good story...I don't think he's very good at writing from a female perspective. It was kinda lame and cheesy.

I'm a bit behind on my reading of his books. The last one I read was "Big Bad Wolf". It was very good. I enjoyed the twists in it. I haven't read that many of his books but the ones I have I've enjoyed. I really need to pick up some more of them. I love the Alex Cross ones the best. Those just seem to draw me in and I have to finish it right away.

I just finished the maximum ride series, and absolutely loved it. James Patterson is very talented, and I love his books.

I just read two of his books in a row. The first one was 'You've Been Warned', and the second was 'The Quickie'. Both were absolutly fabulous! Especially the way 'You've been Warned' ended!! I had a suspicion, but it still was a really great way to end it!

At this moment I am reading the Alex Cross series. I just finished "Pop Goes the Weasel" and now I am reading "Roses are Red". I also love how he gets straight to the point in his books. Especially with describing characters. Most authors spend a couple of paragraphs describing a character and thier background. Where James Patterson doesn't. He describes them in just a few sentences and moves on. There have been many times I have put a book down because I got bored reading about a characters looks and background.

Absolutely love the Alex Cross series! Right now, I'm about halfway through Double Cross.
Has anyone read, and I can't remember the name of this one, the one about the vampires? That one really pulls you in! Actually, now that I think about it, I have to finish that one!
