Review # 1 was written on 2016-11-25 00:00:00 Sean Farrar Here's some advice: Read a really bad book before you pick up this one. I quit at chapter 60. Why are the chapters only 2 pages long? Why are most of the paragraphs only 2 sentences long? Why is everyone beautiful and a millionaire? Why is the 45 yr old mother/heart surgeon so immature and stupid? How accurate are the medical situations in this book? (Isn't a tourniquet a LAST resort because you can lose your friggin LEG?!) Why is there no depth in this book? Why are problems solved so quickly and without much ado? I mean, I'm a very impatient person and I love short clipped sentences and sometimes I can appreciate a startlingly short chapter if it's done for effect. But this just felt rushed all the way, like whoever wrote it had soooo many ideas they had to get it all out at once, all on top of one another. Here's an idea: Put in less content and make the content that actually is there MEANINGFUL to the reader. After 60 chapters (what, 120pages?) I couldn't care less about anybody. I hate quitting books, I really do. But when during every chapter - that is, every second page - you think "WTH is this crap?" it's probably best to put it down.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-03-12 00:00:00 Johnny Tpoau "I'MMA KILLMYSELF! WE'RE SINKING! BOOM! HOMIGOD A SHARK! SNAAAAAAAKES! Oh and throw a ghost in for good measure." There, now you don't really have to read this drivel! I've never read a James Patterson book before and I don't think I'll read a second. It reads like a goosebumps book* that he had to pepper with "adult themes" Y'know because adults cheat on everyone all the time. It's also dreadfully dull, probably because each obstacle was so easily over come that more had to appear, to just offset the tedious monotony. There's no tension at all, none. It's like "OH NO A SHARK! oh you killed it already? Ok now what?" And it's like that through the entire book. It's a bad book, I wish I could rate it minus stars! But actually, it's so bad you have to read it. Just drink a lot before hand, for yourself. OH! One more thing, was it really necessary to have 125 chapters? I mean most of them are 2 pages long, you might get the odd 4-5 page chapter. Also the font has to be at least size 16. All in all it made me feel like The Family Dunne; A bad metaphore sailing through an ocean of sh*te.
