Tara Chevrestt's Reviews > The Suicide Effect

Could just be me... but I found this too hard to get into and not very thrilling for a thriller. It's a great premise, but it had so much other detail thrown in.. unneccesary details not related to the story line that I found myself skimming.

I don't need to know what kind of suit the man wears, nor what he did, where he ran, what he ate prior to the "big meeting." Also things were thrown in that had me scratching my head in confusion. Chicks boxing.. love it, but why is it there?

Also.. There is every single detail of action.. from doors opening to stepping inside.. Just didn't flow well for me.

And come on... A nice cop taking a statement from a woman reporting a missing person is not going to just out of the blue say, "let's go" and motion to a vehicle, have you get in and buckle up and THEN declare you are going to the morgue.. No. No. No.

This has pretty good ratings though and I'm more into historical books so don't take my word for it. I do like an occassional thriller novel here and there.. just didn't care for this one in particular.

Here's a quote that got a reaction out of me though: "her jet black hair was short and spiky. She also had silver rings in both eyebrows. Rudker didn't understand how any of that was supposed to be attractive."

Excuuuuse me? LOL
