Book #15 in 2013

Alex Cross, Run by James Patterson.

Old style Patterson.  Much better than some of the crap he's turned out in the last few years.  Did he dump the co-writer thing?  No one listed as co-author, not that that means anything, I suppose.

Two serial killers and a third killer with a personal vendetta against Det. Cross.  Add in a new foster kid in the Cross family that goes missing.  Coincidence?

Book #14 in 2013

The Storyteller by Jodi Picoult.

Well written story, but I didn't care for the topic - in depth look at the Holocaust.  I am thankful for my shoddy memory.  I wouldn't want to carry around this sadness in my head.
