This is an excellent read that truly captivates the reader. Patterson and the associate writer have masterfully crafted a story that immerses the reader in a dark world filled with intrigue and suspense. The characters in this book are so 'real' that they draw the reader in and keep them turning the pages non-stop.

It's one of those rare books that you simply won't want to put down. From the very beginning, the authors build an atmosphere of mystery and anticipation that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. The plot is full of twists and turns, and just when you think you've figured it out, something new and unexpected happens.

The character development is also top-notch. Each character has their own unique personality, motives, and backstory, which makes them feel like real people rather than just fictional creations. You'll find yourself rooting for some characters and despising others, which is a sign of great writing.

If you're a fan of mystery, suspense, or thrillers, then this book is definitely for you. It's a page-turner that will keep you entertained from start to finish. So, pick up this book, sit back, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through a dark and dangerous world.

This is a really good and fast-paced read. I have always been a fan of Patterson's works, and this one doesn't disappoint. The characters are well-developed and engaging, which makes it easy for the reader to get invested in their stories. The plotlines are also quite interesting and keep the reader on the edge of their seat.

However, I did find that the story was a little predictable at times. There were certain twists and turns that I was able to anticipate before they happened. But despite this, it was still an enjoyable read.

The writing style is简洁明了 and easy to follow, which makes it a great choice for those who are looking for a quick and entertaining read. Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of Patterson or enjoys fast-paced thrillers.

Not super believable, but still entertaining! This statement holds true for many forms of media and entertainment. While some stories or concepts may stretch the boundaries of plausibility, they can still manage to captivate and engage audiences. For example, in the world of science fiction, we often encounter ideas that seem far-fetched and unlikely. However, the creativity and imagination behind these works can make them highly entertaining. We are drawn into these fictional worlds, eager to see how the characters navigate through the extraordinary situations presented. Even though we may know that it's not real, the entertainment value lies in the escape from reality and the opportunity to explore new and exciting possibilities. So, while something may not be super believable, it can still bring us joy and entertainment.

I really loved this book.

It was so captivating that I simply couldn't put it down.

From the very beginning to the end, it was truly great.

Now, I'm going to read the final book in the two-book series, which is called Second Honeymoon.

And on a side note, I have now completed my reading challenge for the year. Lol.

This is a super easy read that you can breeze through.

It has to be said that the plot was somewhat predictable, and you could kind of guess what was going to happen next in many parts. However, to my surprise, there were still some places where it took an unexpected turn, which really caught my attention.

Overall, despite its predictability in certain aspects, I still think it was a pretty good book. It managed to keep me engaged throughout the reading process, and I found myself looking forward to seeing what would happen next. The characters were well-developed, and the story had a certain charm to it. I would definitely recommend this book to others who are looking for an easy and enjoyable read.

I simply flew through this book. In just one day, I managed to read over 250 pages. It was truly impossible for me to put it down.

The book is highly readable, with a fast-paced narrative that keeps you engaged from start to finish. It's also quite intriguing, making you eager to find out what happens next. However, there is one drawback. It's fairly predictable. I found that nothing about the plot really surprised me. Patterson seems to wrap up the book rather hastily with a happy ending that lacks substance.

So, the question is, is it a good read? Well, sure it is. But is it the best thriller out there? No, it's not. Despite its predictability and somewhat rushed ending, I'd still say it's worth reading. Why? Because it's quick and easy. It's the kind of book you can pick up when you want a light and enjoyable read that won't take up too much of your time.

All in all, it's an okay book, but it could have been better if the plot had been more original and the ending more developed.

Have to say that I can't join in with the praise heaped on Honeymoon on James Patterson and Howard Roughan's websites.

It's true that it is a fast read - but then, the chapters are so brief that there is a significant amount of blank page in that book. I really had trouble with the "suspension of disbelief" aspect.

Writers surely want us readers to believe what they write, but here are my issues:

First, I firmly believe that if the FBI encountered a person removing 4.3 million dollars from a recently and suddenly deceased person's account, the suspected individual would be promptly dragged into the FBI offices, and the computer suspected of making the transfer would be confiscated and thoroughly examined to determine if the transaction originated from it. The elaborate way the FBI behaves in this book is simply laughably ridiculous.

Second, no one has 4.3 million sitting idly in a bank account. One doesn't amass 4.3 million by being so financially naïve. If one has such a large sum, it would typically be invested. The idea of one person having that much money in a bank account is bad enough, but two wealthy men acting in this manner? Please.

Third, the sex scenes - oh my God, the sex in the book is straight out of a bad porn film. Extract it and show it to people, and they would immediately recognize the authors' take on sex.

Fourth, the mother's actions are completely nonsensical. "Why would she do that?" was my constant thought. There is parole from jail - not so from a lunatic asylum.

Fifth, the sister? Why would she do that? In all her snooping, she discovered nothing.

Overall, I was quite disappointed with this book and couldn't bring myself to praise it as others have.

Ooops. I accidentally deleted the review. How careless of me!



The audiobook, which is narrated by Campbell Scott and Hope Davis, has a good narration. However, I don't have a particular preference for female narrators. Maybe it's just a personal thing.



This book is completely unbelievable and cheesy. In fact, it's very cheesy. But despite that, I still enjoyed it for the second time. There's something about it that keeps drawing me in, even though I know it's not the most realistic or sophisticated story. Maybe it's the entertainment value or the way the characters are developed. I'm not sure, but I'm glad I gave it another chance.

3.5 ⭐️s.

You already had an inkling of who the killer was in and of itself. However, there was an extremely exciting twist right at the conclusion of the book.

I had a great fondness for the main characters. I felt that their relationship was highly entertaining and engaging.

Although I don't believe I fully grasped the entire blackmail situation that O’Hara orchestrated towards the end of the book, that's all right. It added an element of mystery and kept me on my toes.

Overall, the story was a thrilling read with its unexpected turns and interesting characters.

I would definitely recommend it to others who enjoy a good mystery with a touch of excitement.

So this book truly wasn't what I had anticipated at all. It's not that I thought it would be terrible. But as I never read the back cover or the inside flaps before delving into any book, based solely on the title, I had assumed it was going to be more of a romance story.


It's an extremely quick read. In particular, my copy is a large print version, which made it feel as if I was simply breezing through the book.


It's a remarkable murder mystery-thriller, and I was unable to predict the ending. I'm uncertain about how the sequels will unfold since it didn't really seem to leave much room for one. However, I'm still looking forward to seeing if the author can manage to create a continuation that maintains the same level of excitement and intrigue.

Maybe there are hidden plotlines or characters that could be developed further to expand the story. Only time will tell.
