What a complete waste of my time. Please save your time and money and find something interesting to read. Alex Cross, yes. Womens Club, yes. Anything else I will stay away from.
 James Patterson Books Are Like Drugs October 1, 2008

I am not sure why James Patterson has such a hold on me and fellow readers. His books are so easy to digest and seem to be getting more shallow every new book. However I still find myself compelled to be the first in line to by each and every new book? Why, I ask myself...what could it be that I find so addicting?
You've been warned is a little different than his mystery / murder books. This is more of a supernatural book and like the 6th Sense if you know the ending than the entire plot is ruined. I am not a fast reader as in able to read a book a day, however I did finish You've Been Warned in one sitting. I was not able to put it down. My first thought after finishing the book was disappointment. But than I began to think about what the book was about and what it meant and the clues that were sprinkled trhu the chapters. The more I thought the more my mind changed. I guess to me it was like reading a short story in college and than the discussion afterwards and how every one had a differnt insight to the true meaning.
All in all this book is not the worst way to spend a weekend at home.
Not the worst book ever... October 1, 2008

I read all of JPs books. I typically like the weirdo supernatual ones the best. "You've Been Warned" is a fine read, if you are killing time in the bathroom. I wasn't even totally sure what the hell happened at the end. And then the strange note at the very end? What was that? If you are in a pinch and looking for something on a flight, or if you are having the above mentioned gastrointestinal issues, pick it up. Otherwise, borrow it from one of us!
This is the most awful Patterson I have ever read.... September 16, 2008

I read alot. Maybe 3 to 4 books a week. My favorite Patterson are the Womans Murder Club books. I thought another book about a woman would be good. It was awful!! I read all of it hoping it would get better...it never did. I read the last sentence totally amazed I had read the whole thing. There was never a plot. There was never a point where this book made any sense to me. And I have read books that are complicated and bounce around. This was just a bunch of mumbo jumbo about this girl who really the whole time was just in her head. Don't waste your money on this book.
 Not his typical book, but still good! September 15, 2008
I think too many people are expecting all of Patterson's books to be just like the Alex Cross series. Personally, I'm a bit burned out on Alex Cross; how many Cross books have there been now?? It's just a 'been there, done that' feeling now. I know, MANY people would burn me at the stake for even considering a criticism of Alex Cross, but I've just lost track of all of them. I like reading something that's a change of pace, and this one is definitely different! While it took a chapter or two for me to really get into it, once I did, I couldn't wait to see what happened next. I will admit, the premise is a bit "out there", but I read fiction to be entertained & to escape daily life, and this was entertaining. The ending was a surprise as well!! I would definitely recommend it, with the warning that it's nothing like anything else he's ever written. Read it with an open mind & I think you'll like it.
