Deception Point (2)

Deception Point
Dan Brown

This is the second book by the author of the DaVinci code. I am trying to figure out if his earlier books are not as good, or if I was wrong about his later books. I think he was still trying to find his style in the early books. He bounces around between characters constantly and everything is a cliff hanger. It reads like a made for TV movie and gets a bit tiring after a while.
The story isn't bad but the characters and their motivations are a bit over the top. In the end the book has a nice little twist that I didn't see coming, and he does tie the story together nicely.

You Wouldn't Like It Here
Lon L. Emerick

I bought this book while camping at Tahquamenon Falls in Sept of 2009. It is a tongue in cheek book about life in Upper Michigan. The name rang a bell with me but could not quite place it. He has also written serious history books about Upper Michigan and I read one years ago called Going Back To Central.

Trust Me
By Peter Leonard

This is the second book my Elmore Leonards on Peter. Much like his first book it is quick paced and full of twists and turns. He has his fathers flair, not exactly the same but he captures the same interest in the characters.

This turned out to be the last full book that I finished in 2009. I started The Great Bridge, but will not finish that until well into 2010. My reading has fallen off a lot from my peak, but I still read all the time, I find that I am reading more magazines and other pubs.
