Currently Reading | The Twelve, Jack Reacher

I finally finished reading The Twelve. I was very disappointed! I had no idea who most of the characters were, and the timeline was too confusing. I'm not going to post a review because it would just be a whole lot of complaining. Despite all that, I loved The Passage hard core so I'm still going to read book 3.

I've started reading the Jack Reacher books by Lee Child. I'm on the second book right now, and I'm enjoying the series. It is different than I thought it would be! These books are actually more my style than I was expecting them to be.

Have you read the Jack Reacher books? I have a question for you! The Jack Reacher movie that just came out is based on book 9. Books 1 and 2 seemed to be very stand alone. Are they all that way? Can I read book 9 out of order without spoiling anything?

What are you reading this week?

  1. I liked the Passage too, but can't imagine trying to sum that shiz up! I have The Twelve on audio, but I plan on eventually getting to it soon! Well, soonish!

    1. Haha. The Passage was pretty huge. I may have preferred The Twelve on audio. If I can make a recommendation, I would get to The Twelve sooner than later. I wish The Passage had been fresher in my mind.

  2. I read the Reacher series in order, I'm on 8 right now, and I saw the movie. Didn't feel like I missed a thing. I think most of this series can be read as standalones but they're better to read as a series, right?

  3. I really want to read this but have heard so many people mention the cliffhanger ending...I'm not sure I could cope with the wait!
