Second Honeymoon (Honeymoon, #2)
by James Patterson
You know what? It was not bad. However, a book's being "not bad" does not mean I adored it.
Here's the thing-I keep on trying to read Patterson even though I have not enjoyed 95 percent of his books so I should know he is not for me. Yet. I still give him a chance.
His books all look so damn FUN.
And a few times I have hit the jackpot and they have not been bad. This book would fall into that category. But rarely have I LOVED a book by him.
With Second Honeymoon, there were a few appealing things.
I like there were two mysteries going on at once. This gave the story some meat and the chaptors, as with all of the Patterson books I have read are short and quick, making the book appear shorter then it actually is.
I liked the tropical feel. Much of the book takes place in Turks and Caicos and I do tend to like those types of exotic locations in mysteries.
I liked very much that there was actual character development which I do not always find in a James Patterson novel.
The mystery of the guys with the same name being killed was a unique concept. So that was good.
But the story, even though I moderately enjoyed it, didn't impact me deeply and was just a quick, fun read. And that is fine but I suppose, even after all these years, I am still trying to find a book by Patterson that makes it into my favorite mysteries of all time list. So far, none have. My favorite of his books is The murder house but even that one was not a five star book for me.
So, I may have to just accept that his writing style may not be for me. I still felt this was longer than it needed to be. There was some filler. But it is better then most others I have read by him and is perhaps the perfect beach read in that the chapters fly by quickly and it does have a tropical feel.
Three stars from me. I've read better, I've read worse. ( )
