I just finished "Run for Fear" by James Patterson. It was much better than some of his current ones have been. I am now reading the latest John Ghishom one. It is pretty good too.

Well, you could also read "Boys Should Be Boys" by Dr. Meg Meeker M.D. That's my next read!

TOW - I'm not a James Patterson fan, so I've never put the effort into researching this rumor but I wonder if you might know the truth of it: I heard that he only writes the intro and conclusion to his books, then has a ghost writer do the rest. Do you happen to know if that's true?

I don't know if it is true or not. But this book was written by Patterson and another writer who's name I do no recall. So there may be some truth to that rumor. A lot of his books recently have had a co-author.

I love Patterson! Specifically the Alex Cross series. I have the entire collection and am reading them all.

I have read the whole Alex Cross series also. They were great althoug I wasn't real crazy about the latest one where he goes to Africa.

I have it, but I won't get to it for awhile. I am taking a detour with a couple other books.

I just ordered a new James Patterson book due out in April. Its part of the Women's Murder Club series with Lindsey Boxer, etc. And guess what-it has a co-author. You may be right Comp Guy.

I just finished Alive in Necropolis by Doug Dorst. Interesting, and well-crafted, but I wasn't thrilled by it.

Waiting for the new Barry Eisler book to come out.
