Alone (Abridged): A Novel of Suspense Audiobook

" Took me forever to finish this book, which was not the fault of the book at all. I began taking my laptop to work and borrowing WiFi instead of reading. I was able to get right back into the story and the twists and turns were fun. "

" Thoroughly enjoyed the ride through the twists and turns of revelation on this novel. "

" Beach read, pretty sure I either read it before or there is another book that is amazingly similar. I enjoyed the story and the characters and for the most part it keeps you guessing. "

" Nice read. Not the ending i expected. First for me of lisa's. Can't wait for another. "

" this was easily one of the crappiest mysteries I have ever read. There were just way too many things that were not credible. "

" I might end up reading the second book if only to actually meet the D.D. Warren, since she was a faded background character in the opening novel to her own series. None of the characters we did meet for an extended period of time were particularly likable (except, perhaps, for the four year old - and this is coming from someone who does not really care for children). "

" I would give it one star, but I have to reserve that for really bad books, like 50 shades of grey. This book was painful to read. It was the first book by Gardner that I have read and I am not sure if I want to give another a try. I don't like to stop reading books, so I just powered through this to get it over with. GLAD IT'S DONE! "

" There are very mixed reviews on this book but I rather enjoyed it. Lots of actions and psychological turns. "

" Mediocre story. Caution: Does contain a lot of use of the F-bomb. "

" This is a decent mystery I just wasn't crazy about the ending. "

" This was a 99 cent book on Kindle so I had low expectations but was pleasantly surprised by the quality of writing. It was quick-paced and exciting. I want to read more of this author's work. "

" I just finished this yesterday. I don't know. Maybe it's just me, but I've been finding this genre too melodramatic both in books as well as on TV. It was a quick read, true, but kind of convoluted and not in a good way. I put it in a pile of books to be sold for a buck to raise money for charity. "

" I read this in three days, so I was hooked. However, the plot wasn't fabulous; this isn't my favorite of Gardner's. "

" It was o.k. Nothing spectacular about it. "

" Pretty good story. First time with this author. I'll read more, because I LIKED THE main character. "

" A quick read and a page turner. "

" Too unrealistic for me to really enjoy the plot. I also read it in the hospital doped up on narcotics though, so my opinion may be skewed. "

" Because I read Hide first there was a lot in that book that came from this one, so this one was a little disappointing. Didn't like one of the main characters either. "

" Entertaining, quick read but plausible story? Police sniper kills a man holding his wife and young son hostage. Was it a just killing or was he used by the abused wife to eleminate an abusive spouse? "

" Bobby Dodge is a Massachusetts State Trooper and in a hostage standoff he snipes the bad guy. From there things unravel for him and pretty much everyone in the book. Too much language, book just ok for me. "

" Fast paced read, couldn't quit reading till I was finished with the last page! "

" Exciting book. I had to get the next book in the series. Great characters. "

" Suspenseful and enjoyable to read "

" Another good one from my favorite brain-candy writer "

" This was a pretty good read - got better as I really got into it. Writing is straight forward - not filled with metaphors but the story is enough to keep my interest. I'll read more from this author. "

" I enjoyed reading this and had a hard time putting it down. However, I really had a hard time dealing with the questions surrounding Catherine as a mother. I found myself reading with dread, but NEEDING to finish the book. "

" Exciting book. I had to get the next book in the series. Great characters. "

" A good suspense story from start to finish. "

" The most boring thing I have read lately. Finishing it became a vendetta...kept turning the pages thinking it would get better. "

" Really enjoyed this book. Read it in one day. "

" Very intriguing plot...way too much swearing to warrant a better rating. "

" This book was fast and enjoyable. I believe I like this style from this author "

" Great detective story - kind of spooky if you are ALONE! "

" Overall I thought the book was good. However, this characters really freaked me out at times. I think that can be interpreted as a good thing- but at the time I didn't love that part of it. "

" I thought it was well done with great character development "

" Listened to this as an audio book. Only the story kept me listening. Unfortunately the narrator was hard for me to listen too. On to the next book hopefully with a different narrator. "
