Time to read: 3 days
Usually, I like her movies on lifetime but I've never read a book by her before. I do have to say, I did not enjoy it at all! It was such a SLOW read! The book should have taken me a day but it was just impossible.. The story was really good but could have been all said and done in the first half of the book! It just dragged and I was forcing myself to finish this book.
It was a shame because I know she's really popular but I will not be reading another of her books anytime soon. I'll stick to watching her movies on lifetime every now and then! No offense to those who love/like her but I just had a hard time getting through this book. Way to slow for my taste!

Toys-James Patterson
Time to Read- 3 days
Again, if I had to, I could get this book finished in about half the time! Anyways, I have never read anything by James Patterson before. I had no idea what I was in for, so I was nervous to say the least. He has several appearances on my top 50. This man does it all! He's dipped his toes in every age group! So this is the first book I've read by him and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
I'm going to kind of give a short description of the book. It's about this future world where they are mostly mechanical to become the "perfect human" and they are trying to make the actual human race extinct because they are convinced they are not good for the planet. Well they are of course "super-human", have all the top gadgets and pretty much rule the world. This guy finds out he is not all he thought he was and his whole world turns upside down. It definitely is a twist to the book and turns out he has to fight against what he was supporting in the first place.
It's actually a really good book. It's definitely not something I would ever think I'd enjoy! The book has a couple of twists that I actually didn't see. It was refreshing and very interesting. I was hesitant at first because I was sure there was no way this story was going to captivate me at the beginning but it defintely did.
Having to read these titles is definitely opening up some more reading options that I would never have considered before. This book definitely has be excited for more of the books by him on my list.
