Rating:  Summary: You can't put it down! Review: I picked up this book one evening, intending to read for maybe 30 minutes before bed. Well I couldn't put it down, and I ended up reading it all the way through. Partly this is because it's quite suspenseful and I was worried that I'd have bad dreams if I put it down, but also because it gripped me from the start and held me tight.David Beck's beloved wife, Elizabeth, was murdered eight years previously. The book opens with the murder, but thankfully it's not described too graphically. Now, eight years later, he is receiving emails from someone who seems to think that she is still alive. Pretty quickly it becomes evident that he is also under surveillance and in danger himself. This is a swiftly paced book with several great twists. I passed this book onto my husband and he read it just as fast and enjoyed it just as much as I did. I highly recommend it to all thriller/suspense fans.
Rating:  Summary: Suspense at its finest! Review: So suspenceful at times I wasn't sure I would be able to finish it... but I did!
Rating:  Summary: ON THE CONTRARY "TELL EVERYONE" Review: Now this is one thriller. A book which once gets in your hands will never come down. I had a tough time at my work place. I mean i was literally lost in this one and got up only when i finished it off. This is the first book i have read of Harlan Coben but definetly not the last. You actually visualise the whole book like a slick movie.(By the way when are they coming out with the movie?). Suspense till the end! Not many books can achieve that! I had a tough time keeping the book down. Don't believe me? Try it out!
Rating:  Summary: Another engrossing Coben read... Review: I very much enjoyed the twists and turns of "Tell No One." Coben succeeds in writing a fascinating tale of intrigue and mystery. The characters are well drawn and you care for them. However, I read this book after "Gone for Good." I noticed many similar plot twists and characters. "Gone" kept ringing in my ears--the stories are different, but too many things reminded me of the other book. I don't want to be too specific and ruin it for those who have not yet read it, but the echoes are there. Still a fun, easy, and engrossing read.
Rating:  Summary: I couldn't put the book down! Review: This was the first book that I have read by this author. I started the first chapter and couldn't put the book down. It grabbed my attention from the first page and was consistently good until the very end. It was a thoroughly entertaining book.
Rating:  Summary: A bit mushy, but a good read Review: This is a one day reader. It was very intense and the ending was surprising. I did not care for the idea that the main character would still be that in love with his wife after 8 years of thinking she was dead. They were middle school sweet hearts and this whole romantic idea was hard for me to swallow. Definatively, a good book and worth the time.
Rating:  Summary: Totally Awesome! Review: I absolutely loved this book. I couldn't put it down. Each page seemed to bring more twists and turns to keep you captivated. I highly recommend this novel for anyone who loves suspense reading!
Rating:  Summary: WHAT A RUSH!!!! Review: WOW!WOW!WOW!WOW!WOW...! MY HEAD IS SPINNING WITH COMPLETE ASTONISHMENT! I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO RICHLY SATISFIED WITH A MYSTERY BOOK LIKE THIS! WAY TO GO COBEN!!!! FAN FOR LIFE!!!
Rating:  Summary: Coben just gets better and better, this is his best yet!! Review: I was disappointed at first because it wasn't a Bolitar novel, but that feeling was quickly replaced by WOW!! Coben has REALLY out-done himself with this one. I don't want it to end. Obviously, I haven't finished it yet, but I wanted to let you know a little of what you are in for. I can't give away the ending...I don't know what it is yet, but I can't wait to find out!! You WILL want Coben to make a series out of this one as well!! David's wife Elizabeth is murdered less than a year after they are married. 8 years later they're after him for her murder. The characters are so vivid, you can actually SEE them. And the love David and Elizabeth have for each other through everything since the age of 7!! Tyrese's criminal background and heart are a great combination. There IS a little of the Bolitar in this book, too. Guess who I found lurking around town and chasing after David Beck? If you are a Myron Bolitar series fan you'd recognize him by his toothpick and boots, lovable and laughable and almost always headed in the wrong direction, Detective Dimonte!!! Is he after the wrong guy....AGAIN!!! Detective Carlson is after only one thing....the TRUTH!! Will he find it??
Rating:  Summary: Abreast with the current technology Review: Mr. Coben has not only written such a nice book, but also he is so abreast with the information technology. The book is chilling right from the start. You may not want to leave it unless you finish it. It's a good material for a Hollywood movie. Directors..?? are you listening.
