Pros: Strong plot; interesting main character Cons: Weak supporting characters; bad ending
Given my general dislike of graphic violence or sex, I have avoided James Patterson. Still, I was curious enough when his Women's Murder Club novels were turned into an ABC show last season to watch. I found myself enjoying them enough that ...
