Loading... Judge & Juryby James Patterson, Andrew Gross
None. My blog post about this book is at this link. Will I was reading the book I was hoping they bring the bad guy down. A mob boss was on trial for murder. He threatned the judge & the Jury. The mob boss had is hitman kill the jury. I enjoyed the suspense & the thrill of the trail. This is the typical Patterson suspense thriller that audiences have come to expect from the bestselling author. Whenever a co-author is involved, his novels are either really entertaining or embarrassingly bad. Fortunately, this novel uses its fascinating mobster plot and fast pacing to keep readers invested in the story and craving more. Fast-paced read with evil villain & satisfying ending. no reviews | add a review

I know I shouldn't compare different books by the same author, but with having such a limited exposure to this author, I don't really have much to go on. In all actuality, I found this book pretty boring in most areas. I liked the idea of the story and how the chapter lengths were short and sweet, which I'm grateful to because otherwise I would have probably put the book down and not bothered with the rest of it.
The way the book's written, you're introduced to several different characters. And it's kind of sad when you feel more for the bad guys in the novel than you do the FBI Agent. You learn a lot about Don Cavello from his associates, but then you are only shown slight glimpses of Nicky Smiles. The depth of that character is lacking compared to the others in the book. Hell, even the secondary character of the actress/juror/Jarrod's mother has more influence than the FBI agent whose POV is in the first person during his chapters. And see that above sentence, I just finished the book and I can't even remember the chick's name now. I even caught myself skipping over paragraphs just so I could hurry up and finish it.
It's a good story for those who like a quick read, and aren't disappointed by the lack of character development. It was quick, that's about all of the good things I can really say about it. (
