Another great one by Vince Flynn.. Not as many twists as Memorial Day but a great read none the less.. If you've enjoyed his other books, you'll enjoy this one.. Rapp & Kennedy are classic in this one!

Plot was decent - character were okay. But thought it was a slow read overall. Wishing I didn't take the time to finish it. Bummed as I enjoy this author.

'kayso.. This is my first by the author & honestly, I almost quick reading it after about 25 pages.. I found it hard to follow & quite irritating.. HOWEVER, I am glad that I stuck with it.. as I really enjoyed it & belly laughed while reading it. Once I figured out the "lingo" it was quite good & I will be reading more of his books.

very well written & cute.. a feel good story appropriate for the season.. I had just finished the 8th Cedar Grove book so I was truly "in the groove." A very quick read though - less than 24 hours. thanks PBS - I would have hated to pay full price for a book I finished in no time!!

This is my first Jennifer Weiner book.. I found it very hard to get into it for the first 100 pages or so.. I don't know if it was the writing or that I had just seen "New Moon" & was totally obsessed with that for a bit. But, I picked it up last night & finished it. Stayed up way too late & couldn't put it down.. I will definitely read her other books now.
