Negative Positive
Title: James Patterson? I don't think so.
Review: There are several authors that write so well and are so gifted that I will buy their books without even cracking the cover. James Patterson was one of them. I bought "Step on a Crack" like that. I got home and settled in for another good read. After I got into the first chapter I started thinking, "Did I buy the wrong book? This isn't the James Patterson I'm familiar with." I closed the book and looked at the cover only to find another name on it.My fault no doubt, but I feel like I got ripped off. He's obviously not writing these co-authored books. I have eight of his Alex Cross novels sitting in my bookcase, so I'm very familiar with his writing. He may be reading the manuscripts with red pen in hand and making notes in the margins...maybe. How about the real author's name on top and at the bottom: Edited by James Patterson?Anyway, I can't help you with a review of this book because I never finished it, nor have I even picked up another one of his (?) books.
Is the review positive or negative?
