This is a brilliant, brilliant book. This one was made into the first Reacher movie for good reason. It has probably the 2nd best detective work of books in this series. The other characters are not super interesting but the book is still great. I just love this one. I could read it over and over.

Too many unnecessary descriptions of places
mysterious relaxing fast-paced

This was a really great thriller! I understand the genre better now and could see myself taking one or two of these on vacation with me in the future. Jack Reacher is pretty cool.

I would have enjoyed this more if I hadn't already seen the movie. Knowing the outcome destroyed the suspense.
adventurous dark tense medium-paced

Really great book in the series, an amazing plot that keeps you guessing throughout. The characters are first rate, and the book does not get bogged down at all with a love story, there is a satisfying conclusion and everything makes sense and gives you that feeling that everything was there for you to see to just like Reacher
