Book Review #10 - Die Trying by Lee Child

Plot: Jack Reacher, along with a woman he was helping with her crutches, get kidnapped and go on a cross-country ride.

Review: The Jack Reacher series is something that I’ve only read one book of so far, but I’m hooked. Reacher is a very simple character, but there’s also an unknown mystery about him that is intriguing. In this story, he’s just the wrong guy at the wrong place at the wrong time. He gets dragged into a conspiracy involving a group of nutjobs trying to create their own country.

            The story starts off slowly, nothing much happens for the first half of the book. But it’s a slow build that grows until the finale. Anyone looking for a quick validation won’t find it here. But if you stick around, it will be worth your time. It gets extremely violent, ruthless and entertaining. I won’t go into too much more detail on the story but suffice it to say I will continue with this series.

Score: 8.5/10
