Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Didn't razzle - dazzle me!
Review: A good story, great characters, but after the Poet I was a wee bit forlorn!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent Read!
Review: This is my first Harry Bosch novel... Connelly's other HB books are definitely now on my "to read" list!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A good Harry Bosch story, hopefully the last.
Review: I've now read an thoroughly enjoyed all of Michael Connelly's novels. The Harry Bosch series is especially good, with believable police department intrigue.

However, the Bosch stories are getting a bit formulaic and predictable, so I hope this one marks the end of the series, at least for a long while.

Bloodwork, Connelly's most recent effort was excellent and I look forward to other characters he will bring to life in the future.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MORE HARRY
Review: I, too, have now read or listened to all the Harry Bosch stories. I'm a 50ish divorced woman, happily unattached and uninterested. But, if I ever stumbled across a Harry Bosch, I would get interested FAST. This book was the best so far, I think. Hard to tell, because they have all been so great. If you haven't read a Bosch novel, don't order this book!!! Go back and start with The Black Echo and go forward from there. You would enjoy this book on it's own, but you would then be sorry you knew some things, when you went back and got all the others.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another terrific Harry Bosch tale!!!!!!!!
Review: I just can't get enough of Harry Bosch and his adventures. Michael Connelly really has his stuff together in "Trunk Music." Here's to Harry! I hope he keeps on giving the criminal element in LA LA Land a bad time because I LOVE IT!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great murder mystery
Review: There were enough twists and turns to keep me riveted. I did not get to my weekend to-do list. Great read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: LA and Vegas -- Grit and Glitz
Review: I'm a big Joseph Wambaugh fan and I thought "Trunk Music" came as close as any book I've read to capturing Wambaugh's cynical and gritty style and character development. The story made me wish Connelly had written the screenplay of the recent Paul Newman-Gene Hackman movie. He is really effective at making you feel like in the front seat alongside the homicide detail in today's L.A.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best cop thriller I've ever read
Review: I guess I can say that I tried TRUNK MUSIC thinking I was going to be bored with it, but I was wrong! It's an awesome book. Connelly's story-telling of an L.A. cop who goes to great extremes to find out who killed Tony Aliso was wonderful! I would recommend this book to anyone who has never read any of Michael Connelly's books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another great Bosch mystery
Review: Michael Connelly has once again wrote a great mystery. His characters are so real and lifelike, and that to me is what makes a mystery stand out from all the others. So I highly suggest adding this one to your collection. Connelly is very detailed and Bosch solves his cases the old fashion way: hard work and pounding the streets.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Start at the beginning...
Review: Get your tax refund yet? Some money in the Christmas Club account at work? Have any old jewelry to pawn? Hit the lottery last week? Simple solution - spend your money reading Connelly's Harry Bosch stories. Buy them all, read 'em in order. Too many mystery authors rely either on stock characters so thin they could be cardboard cutouts or on their readers' fanatical devotion to their fictional "universe." Not Connelly - like P.D. James or James Lee Burke Connelly's lead character gradually evolves, gaining depth and substance in each new novel. Trunk Music finds him at the peak of his powers - a thrilling yet human story which a reader might devour in a single late night read, yet return to savor again and again. Connelly's work, like Ellroy or Moseley's, deserves a special place on your shelf at home.
