Bad Luck and Trouble Book Review
Bad Luck and Trouble by Lee Child was the novel I read. This book is the 11th book, the newest one, in a series about a man named Jack Reacher. Some of the other books in this series are The Enemy, The Hard Way, and One Shot. Lee Child has also written many short stories including “Bloodlines”, “The Chopin Manuscript”, and “Death do us Part”. The newest piece of literature written by Lee Child is Bad Luck and Trouble, the novel I read. Jack Reacher is the main character, followed by seven of his army friends. The book begins with one of Reacher’s buddies getting pushed out of a helicopter. He falls three thousand feet to his death. Reacher and three buddies of his from the army band together in search of the killer or killers, but also in search of the other three buddies who didn’t respond. Reacher and his friends work together by the motto, “No one messes with the Special Investigators.” Reacher and his seven army buddies were the Special Investigators.
There are many interesting things about Bad Luck and Trouble. Lee Child doesn’t use long, complicated sentences. He uses short, to the point sentences that are descriptive and meaningful. Every sentence in this novel is important. Each sentence also uses great descriptive adjectives to tell you about every place, person, and thing in the novel. The plot in the story is very lively and vigorous, making you turn the page. Each chapter ends with a cliff hanger and picks up a couple chapters later. Putting this book down is impossible.
I think Lee Child did an amazing job writing this book. There is not one weakness in this novel that I can find. The book is well written, descriptive, meaningful, exhilarating, and very enjoyable to read. Lee Child is a great author and I hope he carries on the series.
Overall, Lee Child did an outstanding job in this novel. I don’t think there was one mistake between the front and back cover. This novel was extremely enjoyable to read. Anyone who loves mysteries and thrillers that are invigorating, exciting, and fast-paced would enjoy this novel.
