La Diabolique
La Diabolique | James Patterson
Les États-Unis sont en émoi : Maggie Bradford, la célèbre auteur-compositeur-interprète, s'apprête à être jugée. Pour la presse, il s'agit du procès de la décennie ! Elle est accusée d'avoir attenté à la vie de son second mari, un ex-footballeur vedette devenu acteur. Du fond de sa cellule, la chanteuse ne cherche pourtant pas à clamer son innocence. Le destin semble s'acharner sur elle... Maggie n'en est pas à son premier fait de gloire... Des années plus tôt, en état de légitime défense, elle a tiré sur son premier époux. Puis, quand elle a cru de nouveau trouver l'amour auprès du richissime Patrick O'Malley, il est mort dans un tragique accident... Alors, simple coïncidence ou calculs pervers ? Maggie est-elle seulement la victime d'un destin qui semble l'avoir prise en grippe ? Derrière son allure candide, se cache-t-il une manipulatrice ? Première édition : Lattès, 1998

This book was rage inducing with it‘s clichés, dated, sexist writing and cardboard characters. ? Why did EVERY sentence have to end with an exclamation point? And does anyone actually use ‘Hooo boy‘ anymore when exclaiming surprise? It‘s like I was stuck in some bad 50‘s movie. #LitsyAtoZ #abecedarianTBR #H #popsugar2020 #bookpublishedinthemonthofyourbirthday #december

LinesUponAPage I mean after all it is from the 80s, right? How do we judge a book in our time written for another time? I always have to remind myself that authors weren‘t writing what we know and believe, but what they lived through. They can‘t tell the future where beliefs and experiences change or even writing styles... 5y
throwmeabook That‘s very true @Lifeisasnap and I acknowledge that this was written during a different time but I‘ve read many of his books from this time (it was written in 1995) and thoroughly enjoyed them, writing style and all. This one is just not on the level I expect from James Patterson. 5y
LinesUponAPage That makes sense. 5y

I own this book but someone is borrowing it so I had to find a picture online. I love the Alex Cross series. I'm a few books behind now....I may have to order them soon. #HideAndSeek
