Gripping Thriller November 14, 2007 This book was fabulous. Really gripped from the start and totally unputdownable. I read this in two sittings. Didnt guess the ending at all. Gruesome in parts but necessary for the plot. I havent seen the movie so had no idea what twists and turns were in store, and there were many. I have read many of James Patterson's book and so read this one rather late on, but by far the best I feel. Was sorry to come to the last page.
2 OUT OF 2 SO FAR September 27, 2007 This Alex Cross novel has been made into the second feature film so far, starring the excellent Morgan Freeman.
The story brings a pair of competing serial killers together, pursued by Cross, who's own neice has been kidnapped from her university campus.
Fast moving and thoroughly gripping story.
An exciting read! March 29, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
'Kiss The Girls' was the first novel I read by James Patterson and I loved it. It is gripping and exciting to read - a real page turner. As one or two of the other readers picked up on, it is very gruesome - it is a serious and intense story. If you dislike violence and gore then this book isn't for you, however you needn't be a horror/gory addict to enjoy the tale.
Detective Alex Cross is particularly wired during this investigation as his much loved niece is a victim - a masked man calling himself Casanova is kidnapping girls (only the best, most special - beautiful and talented girls) and keeping them locked up in a secret place. Casanova uses his strength and power to keep them there and he can (and does) do excatly as wishes with them. However, a pattern is emerging - if the girls don't comply to his rules - they are brutally murdered and left for the police to find.
This is a gripping 'can't put downable' read - but it isn't for the light hearted! There is also a film adapted from the novel. Personally, I think the film is ok, I did enjoy it but the novel is a lot more thrilling and entertaining.
Just not believable February 10, 2007 1 out of 7 found this review helpful
If you want a storyline you can believe in try something else! You can drive a bus through most of the plot development. It's strange that the US authorities leave investigation of multiple murder and rape on East and West coasts largely to one man and a victim. Wooden characters, wooden plot - you can find better!
Kiss the author!! August 14, 2006 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
JP has done it again- another mind blowing thiller, with twists and turns to the last. It's impossible to put down and will leave you wanting more. Read this book!!
