jodij 's review for:

Killing Floor by Lee Child

3.0

challenging emotional sad tense medium-paced

---

This was the first action/thriller book I've read. It was just okay. The writing was nothing special... Choppy for sure! When I got near the end it went into the absurd! I struggled to finish the last 50 pages because it was so absurd.

the "bad guys" were buying $1 bills to send to Venezuela to be bleached of their ink so they could then reprint them as $100 bills. They were bringing them by the truck loads, loose?, and dumping them in this huge warehouse. How... How does this go unnoticed by the government? The pile is described as being as big as 2 houses on top of each other. That's a lot of dollar bills being taken out of circulation.  And how do they accomplish such a pile? Remember the change shortage during Covid! And this pile of loose $1 bills in a huge warehouse in the end has to be boxed up by 10 bad guys? How?!

  also... Does this man ever eat or sleep... This will be the first and last book from this genre I will read.
