I enjoyed the first 3 Reacher novels but this one strains credulity to breaking point. Braless long-legged FBI agents? C'mon. And I'm not even going to get into the absurd plot. Hopefully this was just a temporary blip.

CaramelLunacy Seems terribly impractical... 1y

I feel like these are getting worse with each instalment. That murder method? Really? And the murderer turns out to be exactly who you expect from like minute 45... except that it‘s even more idiotic than you‘d suspect possible. And the focus on gender roles and sexism WHILE being heavily sexist throuhhout?! Oh man, i hope my mom won‘t ask me to download the next one, cause I‘ll probably listen to it too...

Kappadeemom It‘s the same book every time. Jack walks somewhere, stirs up trouble, throws away his clothes, hangs out at some military base, solves a crime (and how does he happen to fall into every single town‘s crime racket?) and then walks away 😛🤷‍♀️ 3y
Heideschrampf @Kappadeemom which i‘d be fine with, if he‘d not grow more shallow with each book, more predictable and the crimes more absurd! I mean, i don‘t expect tolstoi... but why did the writing style from the first change so much to the worse? 3y

Ugh, I really dont like it when Jack Reacher has more than a one night stand with a woman but im not going to down star it because he did kind of cheat on her so that kind of makes up for it (smiles).

As usual Jack speaks to my soul, his avoidance of commitment, his desire to never own anything or be bogged down with stuff. My favourite nomad.

5 stars as usual!

Overall: ⭐⭐⭐
Lee Child does a fantastic job of weaving little threads from start until the explosive climax. His twists, reveals, and layers are top notch. A thrilling, exciting ride.
Drawbacks:
- The resolution was thrilling but border line improbable.
- Women who swear off men inevitably end up romantically involved w/Reacher. Why? Because.

Today's #agameoffavorites was a hard pick, not only for genre, but also author. I went with mystery though, since it's one of my favorite genres. Lee Child's Jack Reacher series is always fun. Running Blind is probably my favorite from the series. Child has a few favorite books, including Casino Royal! I too love James Bond!

Guildedearlobe I love Reacher. Here‘s my favorite Reacher quote “ “ 6y
madamereadsalot1 @Guildedearlobe I'm cracking up! I can't tell if your being facetious or if the quote didn't paste right. 😂 Either way, it's hilarious! 6y
Guildedearlobe @madamereadsalot1 I‘ll say nothing 6y
madamereadsalot1 @Guildedearlobe ha! Understood! Every now and then, I'll get in the mood for what I refer to as a dude book, and he fills that need. I do enjoy quite a bit of junk food for the brain. 6y

Lee Child books are a guaranteed enjoyable read for me. I liked how this one included the Behavioral Science Unit from Quantico. Looking forward to the next one in the series.

Maybe my favorite Jack Reacher novel so far. Very twisty turny and I had it figured out at one point, but then the twists convinced me I was wrong. Ready to get the next one from Dad's bookshelf.

MrBook Ahhh! I have all these in this format too 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻! #KindredSpirits 6y
SandyW I've read a lot of Kabul Teacher novels and enjoyed them in the past, but ever since they cast Tom Cruise (not muy favorite actor), I have a much more difficult time reading this character. 6y
SandyW Kabul Teacher was supposed to be Jack Reacher (new phone, please excuse) 6y
Beckys_Books @SandyW That's a hilarious autocorrect! Totally agree on Tom Cruise. 6y
Scott3 Now I am searching for the Kabul Teacher series 😜 6y

I really love Reacher. First glance he's just some big dude with his own code and a love for coffee. But the more you read the more you see how complex and interesting he is.

Back to Reacher! The Phil Coulson level of snark is probably my fave thing at the moment.

The dynamics of a city. The strong terrorize the weak. They keep at it, like they always have, until they come against somebody stronger with some arbitrary human reason for stopping them...like Reacher. He had no real reason to help a guy he hardly knew....But equally he wasn't about to let anythin
