Date undefinedJames Patterson has written some memorable thrillers but Sail seems to be written by a ghost writer who is new (or tired) of the genre and pushed to this book on the masses using the Patterson label. Don't get me wrong, this is a quick and easy read, but the characters never seem to grasp the readers interest. The scene is set when the dad is killed in a sailing accident and the family tumbles into chaos. The mother is a character that should have been written out of the story. The dialog seems to date back to the Twenties and the characters are all flat. Does this sound like the Patterson we know? I've given it three stars but could easily understand someone giving it one star - what I can't understand is someone giving it five stars. Unless you just have to read everything Patterson...I'd say skip it and read "Sirens" by Tin Geo: Sirens: A Novel A novel I devoured in two days.

Date undefinedGot this book in the mail yesterday...finished it today. This is the fastest I've ever read any book. From start to finish the story is packed full of action going from one twist to another making it extremely difficult to put it down.
