Along Came a Spider by James Patterson
5.0
I just finished reading Along Came A Spider by James Patterson. This book is targeted for the thriller/suspense genre. it takes place in Washington, D.C.
This book is about two kids from two wealthy families who get kidnapped by a man who poses as their teacher. The whole novel is about a whole team of people who are working hard to find the kids. Patterson switches points of view every few chapters so that the reader can see the story unravel from other perspectives, not just the main character's.
I personally loved the book. I feel that the author kept enough details hidden to the point that the reader would be mind blown when they were revealed. Many people don't really like the writing style that James Patterson uses in his books, but I personally do. I have to admit, I have read many other James Patterson books, and I have loved them all. The only problem I have with this particular book is where he talks about how one of the character's wives died. In other books in this series (I am ashamed to admit that I read this series out of order before discovering my mistake) he gives a different account on how she died.
