JAMES PATTERSON'S THE BLACK BOOK

Lindsays Grandma · ‎03-10-2010

Actually it is by James Patterson and David Ellis. I highly recommend reading it. I have four books on a shelf right now that I just can't wrap my head around, but "The Black Book" was a page turner from page one. I read it in four days, couldn't put it down. If you are a fan of James Patterson, check this one out, you won't be disappointed.

I liked James Patterson's Alex Cross books, and a few of his stand alone novels were good. I haven't read his recent books; although maybe I'll check out The Black Book sometime. He must have other people do most of the writing, though. How else could he publish that many books within a year?

@Lindsays Grandma

You sound very knowledgeable about this author ...... are they written in a series, or all stand alone books? If I want to read one of his books, is there a beginning point? What do you recommend?

Actually I'm not that knowledgeable about James Patterson. I have read a number of his books that looked appealing and always enjoyed them. I wish I could give you more information about him but I recommend you start with "The Black Book" and go from there. Good luck.

I am in the middle of this book right now and love it!!!!!

It starts off with a bang, like most of James Patterson's books do, and it is really good. I am only reading on my lunch hour, but each day I can't wait to pick it up!!!!!lol!

@teganslaw I have often wondered that. Ever since I saw someone else's name on his books, I figured he is just lending his name to ensure revenue and the other person may be writing the bulk of the book under Patterson's guidance. I could be all wrong on that, but it seems that way to me.

Although I occasionally see other others with a second name on the cover, it is not all the time, like it seems to me that Patterson's books now are.
