James Patterson is the author for whom I peruse the new book lists at the library. Why? Well, first Alex Cross is one of the greatest detective characters I’ve come across. He is smart and has a great family. The recurring characters (e.g. Sonjei) are evil incarnate. The book where his FBI friend turned on him was also a great twist. It’s also interesting to follow his love life which is challenged to say the least. I also like the variety of books that Patterson produces. I don’t know if he is the font of these ideas but there are a bunch of interesting books tied to him. I do like the murder club with the San Francisco women. Those women are interesting (but not as much as Cross). The other books (e.g., Diary for Nicholas) are okay. Too much for women for me (even though I am a woman).
