On the flight home I finished reading Defending Jacob. Upon completion, Amy asked me if it was a good book. She is also an avid reader and had picked up The Book Thief while we were at the airport at my suggestion.
Was Defending Jacob a good book? It was captivating, as evidenced by how quickly I read it. It kept my interest and it called me back whenever I put it down. It was well written. It was interesting. Was it good? It was haunting....it is one of those books that will remain with me for a long while. It was a disturbing book for me. Being a parent, I could relate with the parents. Being a cop, I could relate with the D.A. Was it Good?.......Read it.....I would be interested in hearing your opinion.
I have now started "New York Dead" by Stuart Woods.
I felt the same way. The dilemma that the parents faced was so difficult. You are right - haunting.
ReplyDeleteYes Kathleen, and if I am not mistaken this was the author's first book. I thought he did a tremendous job. Thank you for stopping by.
