Hollywood Station Audiobook

" Love Wambaugh! I read the others in this series before this one (the first) and enjoyed them, as well. If you like realistic police procedurals with laugh-out-loud humor mixed in, you'll like this series. "

" It was like a long episode of CSI but longer and poorly written. "

" Nancy 4 stars; Ron 3 stars "

" I liked this book very much, but it is very Wambaugh formula which is totally alright with me. "

" I have enjoyed Wambaugh books over the years. This is a new series about the hollywood division. Never really warmed up to the characters. "

" Funny cop humor and good plot. Not the easiest book to read, it bounces around a lot but if you watch a lot of cop shows on TV you should be ok with that. "

" This was a pretty entertaining book. Full of dialogue between the characters. It became apparent very early in the book that Wambaugh is a former cop. At times it seemed like some of the characters could be sitting in a shift briefing in Apple Valley. "

" Great! Good diverting fiction with great dialogue, quirky characters and a fast-paced, multi-layered plot. This is #1 in Wambaugh's "Hollywood Station" series. Looking forward to the others! "

" My grandfather recommended this to me. I've always enjoyed cop-dramas on the big and small screens. Why not try a cop book? Written by a retired LA Cop, this book is written from the perspective of the good guys and the bad guys. Full of humor, drama, and heroics, this was an enjoyable read. "

" this is just a good piece of cop novel popcorn. i read this a couple of months ago. yiur life won't be changed by it, but you can shut off your brain for awhile. "

" Wambaugh starts out writing what appears to be a book about disjointed experiences in the lives of officers at a L.A. station, but entwines them together for a quick and exciting finish. "

" listening to - well read. Slice of life in LAPD with overarching thriller. Good cop/criminal characters as well as multiple anecdotes illustrating life on the Hollywood beat. relatively clean in terms of violence and sex, some language. "

" Wambaugh back to form! It's engaging, funny and smart. You'll look at police officers in a whole new way. "

" I felt a pretty good book. Small stories that intertwine into a thrilling end. My first from this author. "

" Fun book to read, especially being in law enforcement. Not a literary masterpiece, but an entertaning book. "

" A character development tour de force. It hardly even bothers with a plot. "

" Interesting characters, very uninteresting plot. "

" Excellent read in the Hollywood Station series. "

" Wambaugh has been a favorite writer of ours for many years. He combines drama and humor well. His police are very human and very real. He's at his best creating the small vignettes of everyday police work. "

" same charactures, same pace. pretty funny "

" Lots more of the main plot with less of the vignettes about the cops. But more emotional/less humor than usual. I liked it! Listened to. "

" started out good and now has turned into a ridiculous storyline and a bungled robbery, etc and its kind of lame and annoying and predictable. Ended pretty good though...worth a read "

" I good police procedural. You really feel for the characters. "

" Many of the same LAPD cops we have come to know and love in the previous three Hollywood books return here. The many intersecting subplots revolve around an effort to steal some art from a wealthy widow's home in the Hollywood Hills. "
