hide and seek

Last Sunday, my mom lent us a stack of James Patterson books. I ripped through the first one, Hide and Seek, last week. I don’t know what it is about his books, but once I start reading them, I’m done before you know it.

This book was pretty good. As usual, there are the ridiculous plot twists, but I like them anyway. It’s fun to try and guess just how the main character is going to “get out of this one”. Of course, I never guess correctly, so that must be why I keep on reading.

This was a story about a woman who was on trial for the murder of her husband. Unfortunately for her, she also killed her first husband in self-defense and one of her boyfriends died of a heart attack while they were alone on a boat (that is, no witnesses). So, as you can imagine, this did not look good for her. But, as it goes in James Patterson novels, a few conspiracies and a half dozen plot twists later, everything works out for the main character.
