A review by andromeda_
Miracle Cure by Harlan Coben
1.0
I am a dedicated Harlan Coben fan and absolutely love this man’s writing. His characters are intricate and every single plot twist is always the least expected thing.
HOWEVER, this is the first Harlan Coben book that has ever disappointed me :(
On my quest to read his entire backlist, I picked up Miracle Cure, and 200 pages in I was really trying to convince myself to finish. It was so boring. Ever so boring. The characters were interesting enough, but the plot was SO SLOW, and the whole reason I love Harlan Coben is for his quick paced stories and amazing plots, and this has neither. I will admit the plot twist was well executed but around page three hundred I skipped to the last few chapters to find out what it was.
Having been one of his very first books, it’s amazing to see how much the author has grown, but I would not recommend reading this one, if you want fast paced mystery try literally anything else he has written.
**This book was boring and I could not bring myself to finish, but Harlan Coben is amazingly talented and his other books deserve more recognition. Go read Fool Me Once instead :)**
