arlaxx 's review for:

The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum
3.0

There are parts of The Bourne Identity that are really great, and then Ludlum uses dialogue to dump backstory on you. And the cycle repeats. It's a decent spy novel with lots of interesting twists and turns, but the pacing was really terrible. It seemed ridiculously long. I honestly thought I would never finish it.

I'd say if you are a die hard fan of spy novels and haven't read this one, you'll probably enjoy it.
