Do I keep reading this series out of loyalty?

Lee Child has given the writing over to his brother and without sounding sarcastic, i wonder if his brother has ever read a Reacher novel

This Reacher talks too much. He's slow on the uptake even though he over analyses everything. He's ponderous also.

Bring back the Reacher we love or let him retire near the ocean in peace

Same Page Turner

Not much to say, I got what I expected. A page turner I couldn't put down until it was over and now I'm sad there's not another one ready for me to devour.

Did-not-finish. I got 60% through and ended up having to rewind the same section over and over again. This just didn’t have the writing or momentum that I’ve come to live about the series

As an avid Jack Reacher fan I was excited to read the next book in the series, however this one didn’t have me gripped liked all the the others. I found myself wanting to read it just so it would be finished and I could read something else.
I didn’t hate it but I wasn’t enthralled like normal. Shame.
