Summary: Hide & Seek
Review: I've read nearly every book James Patterson published. Hide & Seek is just as riviting as any other. The characters are well developed, you find yourself attached to Maggie, really wanting to know more about her. Finding the truth in her past seems to be the last thing on your mind while reading. The only complaint I have is that I feel that he ended the book a few times. Once you feel comfortable it the ending another bone was thrown in to late. James Patterson is truly one of the best writers that just keet you coming back wanting more!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Interesting, fun and fast-paced
Review: I read this book only because of the circunstances. And it's just wonderful that the circunstances exist.

The story is: I was reading some book summaries, you know, the plot of the book briefly told on the back of the book. And I found this book to have an interesting plot. I started reading it and loved how the author developed the scenarios, the characters and the plot itself. It was like reading a book by Sidney Sheldon. In fact, I've came to the conclusion that some of James Patterson's books are quite similar to Sheldon's. Both of them know how to keep the reader's attention and how to develop an interesting story. Nowadays Patterson is one of my favorite authors, and I think that, after reading that one, he'll become one of your favorites too.

Summary: A great Patterson read
Review: This is the second James Patterson book I've read and I really liked this one. I couldn't put it down right from the start! I fell in love with Maggie's story and I yearned to know the truth about her 3 dead past lovers. I cried with her every time and loved how the book was written from the character's perspective in a trial. The ending drew to a nice finish and I still respected and liked Maggie through it all. I'm hooked on Patterson, but I think I liked his Alex Cross character better.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great no brainer
Review: I bought this book to read on a cross country flight. I had if finished half way through my lay over. It is thought provoking and scary. The words are all easy (a 12 year old could comprehend it). If you don't feel much like thinking and want some TV style entertainment,this is the ticket. It is a story about a woman forced to kill her first husband who abused her, when she finally remarried-she found herself in the same situation again. Does she suffer the beatings and threats to her life? Or does she risk explaining to a judge how she shot two men?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not at all what I expected.
Review: This was the last thing I expected from James Patterson. I now understand the "soap opera" references in the review section. It was almost like something Harold Robbins or Howard Fast would have written. If that's what I was looking for, I would chosen one of their books. Were it not for my faith in Mr. Patterson and the easy and speedy readability of the book I would have quit it at any number of places. I will look forward to his other books and hope this is just an anomaly. However I will say that at a mystery writers panel I attended it was James Patterson who said, "if you want reality, go to K-Mart."

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: there are better ones than this
Review: Read "Kiss The Girls" instead...this story is just a long soap opera with a obvious ending...

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: reader
Review: This book was a very quick read and I enjoyed it for the most part but the ending was a bit to much. I think this book is probably one of his worst written but it still kept me entertained and wanting to know the ending.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: One Star Too Many
Review: This book was terrible. The plot was like a soap from TV, completely unbelievable. Why waste your time reading this book when there are so many other great ones out there. If you don't want to think when you read this is for you. If you like trashy novels, this is for you. But if you really like to read, try something else or you will be very disapointed.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good book to read.
Review: This is a good book to read. It has alot of good parts in it, and it has good character scheme. But the only thing is that some parts in the book shouldn't be in it. So you might have to skip some pages. But it's still a good book. Some parts in it will make you cheer and yell. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Laughable
Review: I don't know how anyone who likes reading can say they enjoyed this book.

Not only did it not make sense - Will turning into his brother and noone noticing - but it stretched the limits of the imagination and realism even for a book.

The lyrics for her song that made the lead woman famous were dreadful but were supposed to be deeply thought out. Those of you who have reviewed this book favourably, I urge you to re-read the lyrics to that song and then try not to laugh at it.

Terrible book - wish I could have given it a minus number.
