Right Behind You | Lisa Gardner

I'm usually a fan, but this one wasn't one of those.it got a but slow and predictable. But I wanted a "beach/mindless read" and it was that.

Fourth book of the series. Great to read on vacation - long enough to last the whole time, but on iPad to not have to lug around. Smart enough to keep me interested and easy enough to read whole in beach mode!

I love reading about places I'm going to visit! I hope I don't have as much adventure as they did.

When I had a last minute trip to Asia, I knew I had to bring this along. It was a gripping read and I enjoyed getting to know the families. Bonus: the movie was on my flight back home!

I love reading about places in going! It was great to learn about the revolution from a first hand account (even if it is fiction). The love story part is a bit stretched, but it's great writing!

I don't know what took me so long to read this...but OMG! Such a good book! I finished it in a park - do not recommend unless you want to be that crying person in the corner of the park. Good story and we'll told. You can tell it's fiction, but don't really care. Solidly in my too 10 books on this time period.

I could put this one down! One of the longest booked I've read and did it in 9 days!

Great world building and interesting story...some short cuts that I didn't like, but well written!

Amazing story....not as good story telling. I wish she went deeper into the story and wasn't as shocked of the racial situation in the south in the '40's. Amazing what these men did to only face horrible situation back home.

Good untold story of the Holocaust. Well written story of what you will do for love!

A lot of it reminded me of my trip to The Holocaust Museum and Memorial in DC. Just go!!!

I really loved the framework of this book! The story was good, but I was expecting something more from the many times I had seen this book. Good, but not 5 stars.

Look for Me | Lisa Gardner
Mehso-so

Like all of Lisa Gardner's books I've read, I can't put or down....then again I always read them on planes. It's a compelling story that's well written with enough turns and surprises that I continue to flip the pages. It's life changing, but do all books need to be?

Highly recommend if you are stuck in an airport or want a page turner without having to put in too much thought.

First book I finished since October! Was in a rut of starting and stopping multiple books, but finally finished one - and bit was it a good one. I felt like I actually traveled to London!
