I‘m only reading this book. Simon & Schuster sent me a physical ARC of this book when I was in their influencer program but I never read it. I‘m listening to it on audio right now. I‘m not enjoying this book. I don‘t think it‘s for me but I‘ll keep reading it. If I can‘t get into it then I‘ll DNF it.

I started this book when I went for a walk to the park today. I just listened to the first chapter. I don‘t know what to think about this book. The weather was nice and I enjoyed my walk but I really wish I could‘ve taken my dog Toppy with me. I was planning to take her once the weather got nice again. It felt weird not having her there with me. I cried when I got home. Well at least I got to take her for a walk before she passed away.
pickThis series is the only exception to my “read it before you see it” rule. Gary Oldman is phenomenal as Jackson Lamb—I love the way he plays the character—and having now read three of the books, I can say that the tv show does a great job of adapting already great stories. Laugh out loud funny, tense (even though I knew what was going to happen), and filled with more flatulence you would expect in a spy novel, this was another fantastic story.
so-soOh, Mick, you were doing so well in making each entry in this series a tensley-plotted and craftily-resolved story, with maybe a hint about what might be raised in the next novel. This alone provided an experience that had me coming back for more. This book, however, while containing as much tension and as many twists and turns, raised so many concerns, not enough of which were resolved, and those that were, were not very satisfactorily done. 1/?
