Read from August 06 to 13, 2011

About halfway into this book I still do intend to finish it ... it's not as gripping as the other Reacher books, and it starts out pretty ham-handed and clumsy. So far I'm not very impressed.

Now done with the book ... it got a little better, but on the whole it was pretty sorry for a Jack Reacher book. 2 stars might be a little unfair, 3 might be better. But it dragged and had gratuitous parts thrown in that didn't really go with the story and the plot was kind of iffy and many of the people were even more two dimensional than a book like this should have.

Small spoiler below:

Two things I appreciated but didn't make the book any better was an unexpectedly gay character that was just whatever and also Reacher didn't sleep with anyone.
