Title: This book laid an egg!
Review: I do owe Jim Patterson much credit for my new passion for reading. While taking care of my ill mother, I began reading to deal with some insomnia I was having. I read When the Wind Blows and admit... I enjoyed it. From there, went on to read all the Dan Brown books and some Grishim offerings. I decided to give the Lake House a try thinking it might be fun to revisit the bird clan. Oh God Help Me! This was such a bad read. I really don't understand the entire product placement inserts (M&M's, Nellie, Mountain Dew etc.) it was painful. There is something troubling about reading from the point of view of a 12-year girl and know it's coming from the experiences of a 60+ year old man. In fact, parts of this book don't seem like Patterson wrote it at all. Someone should have told him kids today simply don't act nor speak the way they do in this book. He should end the series here. It's done.
