The Beach House Audiobook

" Worst Patterson book I have read. I thought the ending was downright awful, even wrote to him to let him know what I thought about it. (He didn't write me back.) Sloppy, seemed to have been written by one of his "co-writers" instead. I quit being a die-hard Patterson fan after this book. "

" james Patterson is a genius this book is awesome "

" It's a fast read,and perfect for, well, the beach. Characters are a little flat and rely on typical stereotypes: Corrupt wealthy Hampton folks, promising hard working boy from poor town who has made it big as a lawyer,and the bold, bossy, dream girl from the office. The one thing that I did love about this book, was how I was left with this hopeless feeling of, "How are the heroes gonna win now?" at every turn of the page. You won't feel any intellectual reward for having dug into this book, not that there's much to dig into, but it is an entertaining way to speed time up on those long road trips, or days at the beach. "

" You can tell James Patterson wasn't the primary author. "

" Great story, similar to A River Runs Rhrough It, a story of 2 brothers, one responsible and successful, who defends the more impulsive, and troubled, brother. "

" love james patterson, for a quick read. "

" excellent patterson can co author a book regardless of who wrote it. "

" Fast pace. Page turner "

" One of his better books with a twist that I never saw coming! Thoroughly enjoyed reading! "

" 4.5 Stars. I had a hard time putting this book down. It was very fast-paced. Great escape book. I've liked every James Patterson book I've read, but this is currently my favorite by him. "

" It had a very captivating first few chapters, then it drug on for awhile, then good again, then started dragging again, then good again. I think it finished good. "

" I only read this book because it was referenced in the movie The Vow when Rachael McAdam's character said it was her favorite book. Not so much! It was somewhat suspenseful, but I found the characters not of my liking. "

" Loved this book .. Loved how the rich and powerful were brought to Justice... Can't wait to read another Patterson Book. "

" Easy read. Sort of a waste of time. "

" A slow beginning, but it picks up somwhere in the middle and becomes a classic James Patterson adventure "

" A decent page-turner to read to pass the time. "

" Not bad, not extraordinary, but an enjoyable "read" as an audiobook. It is definitely the kind of book to read when you feel like having absolutely no challenge to your brain. It is particularly good for multitasking, because when you miss pieces of this book, you're really not missing much. "

" Whenever we take long road trips, I inevitably load up on some Patterson CDs. They're mostly 6-8 hours, move briskly, and contain enough recursive storytelling that a stop for pie or donuts along the road won't break the story. It's not great art, but it's often deft storytelling. "

" A fast read with some interesting twists. Typical Patterson and co-author fare. "

" Loved the book- kept me on edge. "

" Read it at a Beach House when my Kindle got washed into the ocean by a unanticipated wave. A guilty pleasure meant to be? Loved it.... "

" Great story, unbelievable ending, stretches the imagination just a bit. "

" As most all James Patterson books, this is solid writing and solid entertainment, but also quite a bit different from most of the books I've read by him. I'd definitely recommend this one to anyone interested in Patterson or courtroom suspense-drama's. "

" Typical James Patterson -- which is why I keep coming back. "

" I'd heard from someone that this was a 'great' book. I disagree. It gets one star for being a fast read and not taking up too much of my time. I have come to the conclusion that I'm not a James Patterson fan. "

" I love his books. Nice twists and turns, kept you guessing. "

" different from his usual suspense books.... but good "

" Awesome thriller. Great ride leading to a mind-blowing ending. You'll never guess who dunnit! Honestly in my top 10 books ever! "

" I enjoyed this book until the end. I absolutely hated how it ended. I was upset about it for days afterwards. "

" Pretty rough subject matter for me. I couldn't really recommend it. "

" Good Summer light reading. Fast easy chapters that keep the plot moving along. "

" This was a pretty good book, I didn't expect it to go where it went though. Quite surprising. "

" It was a great quick read. Liked this one more than the other Patterson that I read. I would recommend to others for a good vacation/weekend read. "

" same fast paced, excitement-packed, short chapters as his detective fiction. I really enjoyed it for a good, exciting quick read. "

" The story was good but I am surprised that he never continued on one avenue that I thought would have been a part of it. However this was a great read! "

" Here's a good vintage Patterson mystery unlike the junk he seems to write now. Good, fast paced page turner that draws you in. Perfect for a summer read! "

" what can I say I really enjoy reading JP. not his best but certainly quick and good! "

" You can tell James Patterson wasn't the primary author. "

" I enjoyed reading this while I was home sick. I couldn't predict the ending which is always good, and it was a contemporary mystery with some romance, so how could it miss? "
