Summary: A Wild Ride
Review: A Multi-layered suspense thriller with many twists and turns, and a surprising conclusion. Although intricate, the plot is not difficult to follow. But it is Alex Cross, the main character, that is the star of this story. We get to know him a little better and I like him more and more with each new installment in this series.

Summary: This book was very entertaining and had me up late at night.
Review: I think James Patterson is an extraordinary write and "Jack and Jill" exhibits that. He writes very thick plots but at the same time uses language that anyone can read and understand. The story was very exciting, as the plot twisted and turned until the very end. Patterson had me guessing the entire ride, and what a ride it was.

Summary: A True Washington Thriller
Review: Cross is back as they say! Patterson has done it again. He truly understands the way Washington functions and how to entangle a reader in the cities' inerworkings. When he writes about an apartment or a restaurant...you feel the need to go and see if it really exists or if it's just more fiction. Jack and Jill leaves you guesing as to who "really" did it up until the end, the way Kiss the Girls did. If they make another or his books into movies, I can see Vingh Rames playing Sampson. anybody else?

Summary: BREATHTAKING
Review: One of the best suspense novels i have ever read. Fast paced, engrossing & enough to give you goose bumps, what more could you ask for!! As soon as you think you've figured it all out, Patterson throws in some plausible twist that blows your theory all away. DEFINITE MUST READ!!!

Summary: Excellent - I love James Patterson
Review: I love the way James Patterson writes his psychological thrillers. Jack and Jill was the first of his works that I read, and now I am addicted. His Alex Cross novels are thrilling, and keep you guessing what will happen. It is a must read.

Summary: AN UNBELIEVABLE BOOK!!! GET IT.
Review: Before I had read any of Patterson's books, I wasn't really reading. A friend turned me on to Jack and Jill, and I read three of his books within the next 5 days. He is truly a gifted writer, and I recommend reading anything he has written. And prepare to miss a few engagements along the way...

Summary: Mindless entertainment
Review: For pulp writers, you have to remember one thing. It's not art; it's escapist entertainment. Characters aren't important. The plot can have holes. And as you're reading it, it's alright to think "No way can this ever happen." Also get ready for the author (and I use this term loosely) to repeat the same story again and again and again and again and again. Grisham, King, Koontz, and Crichton are masters at telling the same story over and over and selling millions.Well along comes James Patterson, and he doesn't even change the main characters. So, should we be surprised that every story seems the same? No, but it's a great way to give the brain a rest before starting up another more accomplished piece of literature. Happy summer reading.

Summary: I'm hooked!!! Alex Cross is wonderful
Review: This is the first James Patterson book that I have read. I am totally hooked. I can't wait to read all of his books. Alex Cross is believable as a detective. I couldn't put the book down. Nothing like a good book when all you have to look forward to are TV reruns.

Summary: Suspenseful with great plot twists and turns.
Review: James Patterson has the unique ability to juggle multiple antagonists without losing the reader. Highly believable, I was surprised to see who was killed. I feel that, even though I love all of the Cross series, "Jack and Jill" is the best yet.

Summary: last chapter was the best
Review: for 2 reasons. 1. An end to a book that I felt was not one of Patterson's better one. 2. Gary is back!!! I have read Along Came a Spider and Kiss the Girls and found them highly entertaining. Although I didn't like this particular one, I will not give up on Patterson and hope he came through again with Cat & Mouse. I find Alex Cross to be a believable character but the "nobody cares about the black kids in the city" theme seems to be running a little thin. For those who didn't like this one, I wouldn't recommend giving up on JP yet. Try something else first.
