6th Target

6th Target

by James Patterson

I am so glad that I have finished the required work for the six credits that I earned this school year. I can read.for.fun! YAY!

Today, I finished 6th Target by James Patterson. This book is the 6th - obviously - in a series of books about the Women's Murder Mystery Club. There are four women whose paths crossed in their professions, and now they are great friends working together and pooling resources to solve murder mysteries. The four main characters are Lindsay Boxer, homicide detective; Claire Washburn, head medical examiner; Yuki Castellano, assistant District Attorney; and Cindy (insert last name here - I forgot what it is), reporter for a major newspaper. All of the books take place in San Francisco, CA.

As I started reading this book, it seemed awfully familiar to me. Well, that's because I've read it before - a long time ago. I didn't intentionally check this book out of the library to read it again. It was on the shelf, I hadn't read one from this series in a while so I had forgotten where I had left off, and Mallory was with me. She was talking loudly, so I was trying to get her out of the library FAST.

I like that there were several cases going on at one time in this book. Even though this turned out to be a reread for me, I did enjoy it. The short chapters in James Patterson novels are great for a mom with young children. It's quite easy to find a stopping point at a moments notice.

Next up - Daniel Isn't Talking - a book about Autism that I borrowed from a friend.

In the future - more from the Women's Murder Mystery Club. I think the series is up to book 10 by now.

If you use the Good Reads web site, we should become friends on there. It's a great place to track books and make recommendations.
