Gone But Not Forgotten

Rating:
Summary: Great escape read during Christmas holiday break!
Review: Had not read any Margolin before and, although I had suspected the twist involving the reporter before it was fully developed,it did not in any way spoil the tortuous plot. Clever use of regional USA differences, namely New York state and Pacific northwest. Psychopath well and frighteningly developed. Strong female heroine.

Summary: Not bad, Not Good
Review: Having read so many thrillers and mystery book in the past, I predicted the last half of this book. Even though I knew what to expect, I still enjoy but will say that its not too bad and its not all that great. Characters were really well develop and the plot wasn't too bad. Overall its an average book. For a good read try "Bone Collector" by Jeffery Deaver, J.R.R Tolkien's "Lord of Rings" series, or any of John Grisham's books

Summary: This is not a good book!
Review: I can't understand why people rave about this book. Technically (as a police procedural or plotting ), this book doesn't work at all. The first technical flaw that raised my eyebrow occurred around page 60 when they allowed the husband of the last victim to become part of the investigational team. No police department in the country would allow that to happen - I don't care how well-connected someone may be. Unfortunately, I can't specifically comment on the plotting without giving away the "surprises" (which, by the way, there were none). Suffice it to say that I didn't find anything in the book based in reality or half-way "believable." The psycho-babble just didn't ring true. I labored through this book and I couldn't wait to get to the end just to see if I had it figured out. Well, there wasn't much to figue out; and the ending? Please. I didn't buy any of it! It was a lousy book.

Summary: Highly recommended
Review: I could not put this book down. Phillip Margolin has done a great job in having the reader guessing on the identity of the Portland killer . There are times when I thought I knew the whole story behind the murders which occur, but then a new twist comes up which makes the plot even more interesting. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a suspense and who won't mind staying up late at night turning pages

Summary: Good, but not the Best!
Review: I enjoyed reading this book, but found it to be disappointing compared to AFTER DARK. I was just waiting for something more exciting to happen. However, I would recommend this book to anyone who loves suspense.

Rating:
Summary: Best Book of The Year
Review: I have always been into murder books, but this is the best one I've read yet! I started reading it for a cless project and I can't put it down. I haven't read the ending yet but I'm pretty sure who the killer is. I would recommend this book to anyone no matter what books they like to read.

Summary: Phillip Margolin has what it takes
Review: I have always loved the John Grisham books, someone else who reads them suggested I read Phillip Margolin's books also. I live in Portland, OR where Mr Margolin lives and he shares pieces of the city and state in his books, making them seem more real to me. He has a real knack for twisting plots! You think you know where the book is going and then as you read on, the book twists in a new direction. I love to read, but his books I have simply not been able to put down! I have to know what's going to happen next. Gone but not forgotten is one of his best at this. He is truely a one of the great writers. If you like mysteries and intrigue, read this, you won't be disappointed!

Rating:
Summary: This book like all his others are excellent.
Review: I have never read a book of Margolins that I did not completely enjoy. He has an extremely dark mind, which is quite similar to Steven Kings. He assunes an air of innocences as he entangles the plot into an unstoppable read. The endings always seem to surprise me.

Summary: Excellent book
Review: I have to say that I read this book this summer and found that I couldn't put it down. I enjoyed it so much that I recommended it to my wife and she loved it also.

Rating:
Summary: BEST BOOK OF ALL TIME
Review: I love this book. it was the first, but not last book, I have read by Philip Margolin. The characters are brought to life right in front of you. The scenes are real and heart pounding. If you don't or do like to read, please, read this book. I have never, in my entire life, read such a good book. Keep up the good work, Mr. Margolin!
