Oooooo, intriguing book! I'm going to see if I can get if from the digital library since I "read" almost all my books via audio book these days.
My digital library didn't have it. I borrowed the paper book, but I much prefer my Kindle these days and read faster on it, so I decided to splurge and bought this one. It's been a really long time since I actually purchased a book instead of getting them from the library, so I figured it was okay this time.
@Karen do you know if it's ok to read this book without reading the others from the series? from what I've seen online, there are a seven books from this autor, with this character Eddie Flynn, and now I don't know if it's really a big deal...
I was told that you definitely can read this one as a stand alone. I haven't read any of the other books either and so far am having no problems getting right into the story.
Teehee, I did get this from the digital library and about one sentence in, I realized I had "read" this one before. Actually, I really felt like I had seen the movie -- until I did a little research and I don't think there HAS been a movie. But, it's a testament to the writing, I guess, that I felt like I had seen him getting into the back of that van in the beginning, for example. Great descriptions and very visual writing style.
I just finished this one today. I really liked the premise and I thought it was very entertaining (minus the gruesome details). Very twisty and turny for knowing who the killer is on page 1!
I really liked this. I like courtroom details and the whole look into how the jury is picked and how they will probably decide the case. I think this is a series? I would read more of these. Did anyone do the audiobook? I was really having trouble separating the voices of the killer and the attorney. I kept mixing them up.
I also listened to the audiobook and had the same trouble! New chapters would take me by surprise until I had a little more context.
i actually bought verity by colleen hoover yesterday when i saw it in a second hand sale - i just assumed it was in the top couple books that got in - i can't remember if i already reserved this one or my library didn't have it- anyway, i really like the cover with the red chair and the numerals in the title - we need more cover appreciation in our reviews (but then often my Aust/UK English covers look different to yours and the Goodreads ones anyway) - sorry off-topic - carry on!
