This is the first in a long series about a character who’s clearly written by a man. Each story is entertaining and every character is stereotypical, and it’s solid snippet reading before bed or at the beach or on a quick plane ride. The series acts ...more

Connelly always writes a solid Mickey Haller. Did not disappoint.

Interesting. Timely. Well written as always. Lacks the intensity of her early novels but I still love hanging with all the characters.

It’s not a book about space and astronauts. It’s about human interaction and relationships. Written beautifully. Solid recommendation.

Well crafted novel. A real page-turner. Much of what fuels the mystery is a failure to communicate between all of the characters but as they’re all carrying a ton of baggage, it’s believable and relatable in how they deal with each other. Setting was ...more

This is time I’ll never get back. Opening hook reeled me in. Was bored thereafter. Too predictable. The teen was a pain in the ass. The main character was an idiot. So little pathos. So sophomoric. Drudgery.

Gina Fava and 72 other people liked Lisa Murphy's review of It's Not Her: "I really did not care for this book. I found it extremely boring and rather predictable.
