Reading Lottery: Void Moon by Michael Connelly (ns)

I liked it.  I didn't love it but I thought it was well done.  I think my problem was that I didn't like Cassie as a character, though she did redeem herself at the end.

    Oh, darn. I was hoping you'd love it, because it was my first Connelly book, and he's since become one of my top 3 authors of all time. I picked this one out of all his stuff because it's one of the few stand alone. His Bosch line is where he really shines, but I couldn't pick *one.* Lol. (He used to be a crime reporter, and Bosch is a homicide detective, so those books are all about his cases.) 

    I agree, Cassie was not a likeble character, in general, though I guess I could see where she was coming from, at times. 

    In other Reading Lottery news, I'm still waiting for my match to become available at the library. I've been #2 on the list since the day the matches were posted. Bastards.

    I'd read something else by him so it wasn't a total loss!  I just didn't get why she would toss the chance that she'd been given away.  I still don't but then, I don't have that sort of mindset to start with.  I never got past that.  

    I don't think I really got the thing with Max right at the end either.

    Just like Patricia Cornwell.  Have you read anything by her?

    Her Kay Scarpetta series is the best that she's done.  It starts with Postmortem.
