Womens Murder Club: 10th Anniversary

This is my review of the tenth book in James Patterson's amazing series: The Women's Murder Club. I have always loved this series, as I grew up with these books sitting there on my mother’s bookshelf taunting me; and now I get to enjoy them. James Patterson is one of my favorite authors ever. I have read many of his books, mainly the mystery cop ones. I have also read his series about Michael Bennett. That series is also a cop one, but on a different subject, I guess. I the tenth book of the women's murder club series 5 stars out of 5 stars. I hope that you would read it and that you will like it as much as I have!

When I read this book I wanted it to live up to my high expectations. I wanted it to be just like all of the other books in the series. It was just as good.

In this book Lindsay Boxer is finally getting married to Joe Molinari, a deputy director for homeland security, after struggling to keep their relationship together. They were going to go on a honeymoon together, but then Lindsay gets a case. A girl is found in the Street beaten up and missing her baby. Lindsay is placed on the case and soon discovers that this baby isn't only missing, it was sold. As the case unravels the whole woman's murder club gets involved. This girl, Avis Richardson, is lying so that she won't be caught for selling her baby. When she was found on the side of the road she was wearing a neon green plastic rain poncho, naked other than that. She is bleeding badly and if she doesn't get help soon then she will die. This is what leads to Lindsay’s case.

What I liked about this book was how the story fully developed to complete the other books. Except for the cliff hanger at the end, it was very good. I hate it when you are near the end of a book and then you get to the end and it just leaves you hanging. That is the one thing that I didn't like. It made sense the way it ended but it left you with yet another cliffhanger.

This was a very good book and a great addition to the series. James Patterson once again creates a literary master piece with this book. Some quotes I really loved in this were: "I'm not believing in invisible bullets butterfly." I don't know why I liked this quote but I did. It just flows so well and is just really good. Another quote is: "He was very little, but he was taking everything in." This quote is about a little boy, a little boy who when he was born he was sold. This then involved into this big case.

This is a very good book for young adults and I would recommend it to anyone who is into mystery or murder books and loves to see stories unravel before them.

  1. Very interesting book, fast moving, page turning- with a great bunch of characters. Some were wickedly funny, and others were just chilling. But, the main character Dominique was fabulous. I never would have guessed the ending, and all of the twists and turns along the way! I wish this was a movie, it was one of the best books I have read this sumer.
