The Escape by David Baldacci
The First and Second in the John Puller Series are ZERO DAY and THE FORGOTTEN
I've just finished reading The Escape and it didn't disappoint. I was a little worried that I felt it was a slow starter; I began to wonder if I was going to be let down by the third in the series of the John Puller Investigations. But a sigh of relief when about 50 pages in, I began to be drawn into the story and from then I was absorbed and entertained.
If you haven't yet read any of the John Puller Thriller Series, they are well worth picking up. The last in the series sees the older brother Robert, the most wanted man in America, escape from military prison, and his brother John leading the investigation into his re-capture.
Its quite a fast paced read, plenty of thrills, corruption, secret intelligence, a bit of flirting... and of course a dilemma for John, where does his loyalty lie, with his brother, or with his duty to his country.

Torn Series by K A Robinson... Short Review
Torn and Twisted books for young adults...
Beautiful people ....sex, drugs and rock and roll. A love triangle or two .... an abusive mother figure.... This is a holiday read if you want something that doesn't tax your brain at all! The characters are ..well...truthfully quite bland. The story focuses around Chloe and the loves in her life ... Chloe is beautiful.... Drake is the bad boy, the most handsome, ripped guy on the planet ...Logan is also beautiful inside and out ... and the other one who's name evades me is a six foot plus football player, also the most handsome guy you will ever meet.
I'm smiling because I did actually enjoy reading this book. I'm not young and I'm probably cynical about love and romance and all that stuff... but for a light read its OK. I'll let you decide if this is something you feel you would like to read while your sunning yourself on the beach... or if your at home and you want to indulge in "all the beautiful people" falling in love. If I were to rate this book, I would probably give it a 4 out of 10.
