Rating: Summary: The best yet! Review: I have always loved Kellerman's books. This is definately his best. I couldn't put it down.
Rating: Summary: Maybe Kellerman's best yet !! Review: I truly enjoyed this book. Well written and held my attention to the end. Recommend it highly!!
Rating: Summary: J. Kellerman competes with F. Kellerman, successfully Review: I've read them all, by both authors and I think that this must be his attempt to show her that he can build sympathetic characters and demonstrate behavior without "talking about" behavior. He did it well. Like several of the other reviewers of this book, I felt that The Butcher's Theater was his best story, until now. This one is competitive.
Rating: Summary: kellerman is back and in good form Review: After a few recent books that were only so so, Jonathan Kellerman has a winner. A great, spellbinding solid mystery from the first page. Great new characters. Way to go!
Rating: Summary: Easy Reading Review: Billy Straight reads easy and fast. Held my interest all the way through.....More....
Rating: Summary: Jonathan Kellerman outdoes himself once again! Review: I always enjoy his style of writing. Though very detailed, it captures the heart of the person he is describing. Case in point: Billy Straight. An abused boy from a disfunctional home, it zooms in on his moment to moment feelings as he struggles through the labryrinth of Los Angeles, trying to make all the right decisions to stay alive. Also, the Los Feliz area is one I am familiar with, so it it fun to read the details of libraries and schools that I see. I look forward to his next book. I always do!
Rating: Summary: Enjoyed this book Review: Billy Straight was a lovable boy. I wanted to bring him home to join my other children.
Rating: Summary: Great! Really kept your attention. Review: Great read. I really enjoyed the story. I bought the book on audio tape. Really kept my attention hated to turn off the tape. I have enjoyed all of Jonathan Kellerman books I have read so far.
Rating: Summary: Good writing and excellent characterization Review: This was my first Kellerman book, and I enjoyed it. The plot was not as intricate as those of Richard North Patterson or David Baldacci, but this was perhaps more believable. I'll definitely try some of the author's other books.
Rating: Summary: A good page turner, couldn't put it down. Review: I have read all of Jonathan Kellerman's fiction and can't wait until the beginning of each year for a new one to come out, but I thought that Alex and Milo were getting a bit stale and I almost passed this one by. Then I saw that it was introducing new characters. I remembered reading "The Butcher's Theatre" and I really liked the diversion from the Alex Delaware novels so I bought "Bill Straight" and from page one I was glad I did! It was well put together and I couldn't get enough of Petra, she was wonderful. I hope to hear more from her in novels to come, and her wonderful partner, I got kinda caught up in his wife's illness, in the next book I hope she's alright.
