2015 Reading Challenge [Closed] discussion

My mom had let me borrow this book about a year ago and it ended up in a dusty pile beside my bed. I forgot about it until I was searching for a book that contained a number in the title. The book kind of reminded me of the movie Taken. The book is about a man who wakes up in the hospital after being shot. He finds out his wife is dead and his 6 month old baby is missing. The book goes on to the search of his daughter with the hopes that she is still alive. Even though the book received some bad reviews, I loved it! I read it in one sitting. It sucked me in and I was unable to put it down. I'm so glad I decided to pick this book up and finally read it.I definitely recommend it to everyone who likes a good thriller!

I adore Harlan Coben. Even his mediocre books suck you in to the extent that you can't set them down. I haven't read this one yet though.

I'll definitely have to look into some more of his books. Do you have any suggestions?

Two of his more popular ones that I like are Tell No One and Gone for Good. It's been awhile though.

I just read Six Years. I enjoyed it, but a month later I'm sitting here thinking "wait a minute... that doesn't make sense". Definitely a library read on that one.

Do you normally do thrillers/murder mysteries?

I second suggesting Tell No One. It's my first book by him and I could not put it down.

Maybe I'll look into that one for my Week 10: Thriller Book. Recently I have been reading a lot of mystery/thrillers. I just recently read two of Gillian Flynn's books (Sharp Objects and Dark Places). My friend also recommended the book, White Oleander by Janet Fitch, that I'm pretty excited about.

Nice! I've been curious about Gillian Flynn, but haven't talked to anyone that's read her before. Now I don't have an excuse lol. I haven't read White Oleander. A wimp when it comes to novels like that, they feel too real, ya know?
