This thriller is very different from Follet‘s Pillars of the Earth series!

First off, this is an older book. Published about 1994, so its a little dated. It was before the time of Ebola outbreak in 2014, when a lot of people hadn‘t even heard of the virus yet. This book gives a summary of the then Reston Outbreak in Reston VA. It can get a little gory at times, but overall it‘s a solid read and can prove that truth is better (and scarier) than fiction…

My 2nd book finished for #MarvellousMarch
An enjoyable romp of a crisis situation when a deadly virus/bacterial strain is released in Yellowstone Park that quickly kills people, & is found to be a preliminary attack prior to a bigger more devastating plan. If only the Covid situation could be solved in the way this book was. A very enjoyable book but not sure how the science really stood up. I look forward to continuing this fast moving series,
Anyone read Nick Thacker‘s books? I‘d like to try one or two, and they seem to be on Kindle Unlimited, but I have no clue where to start. He‘s written quite a lot, yet I‘m not familiar with him 🤷🏼
Book 2 ✔️ for #DiseaseoftheMonthBookClub
(Prompt: Read a book about a virus)
Fascinating look at the scientific research that was being conducted on coronaviruses after the SARS and MERS outbreaks, which enabled scientists to quickly pivot to create a vaccine when COVID-19 spilled over into the human population. A bit technical so I‘m glad I had at least a semester of college-level biology.
This was a great wintry thriller by one of my favorites. The story involves family that gets dragged into a terrorism plot by one of their own. Very suspenseful throughout, very engaging. My husband and I read it together using a combination of audiobook and print copies. I just love Ken Follett‘s work, both his thrillers and his historical fiction.
My husband and I are reading this together. We started listening to the audio to/from vacation last weekend, and now he has picked our physical copy up to keep going. I‘m listening throughout the day on my work commutes. I LOVE Ken Follett and am thrilled that my husband has begun to love his work too.
This one is thrilling and reminds me a little of my last book read: The Drift by CJ Tudor. Follett always keeps me on the edge of my seat.
🎃🎃for the most part I found this boring and unsatisfying. Plague, runaway, drive, drive, drive, eat food get to destination and never find out what the hells going on! Cool concept that‘s about it.
Happy Litsyversary, @BarbaraBB ! Tagged is the book I‘ve already preordered (the paperback edition comes out in March 2024). I saw the author at a literary festival this year and was mesmerized by his commentary. And this is the type of nonfiction book that hits one of my sweet spots: #DiseaseoftheMonthBookClub 😀

Book 14 for #SummerEndReadathon @TheSpineView
Not as good as Cook's older books. I figured out what was going to happen in the first part of book. More a rant about healthcare in America. We already know it sucks. Goodreads Giveaway that I won.
