Ranking the Books http://rankingthebooks.com Read ALL the reviews Tue, 14 Apr 2015 16:36:14 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.4.10 Reviews: David Baldacci – Memory Man http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-david-baldacci-memory-man/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-david-baldacci-memory-man/#respond Tue, 14 Apr 2015 16:36:14 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=399 Memory manThe first time was on the gridiron. A big, towering athlete, he was the only person from his hometown of Burlington ever to go pro. But his career ended before it had a chance to begin. On his very first play, a violent helmet-to-helmet collision knocked him off the field for good, and left him with an improbable side effect–he can never forget anything.
The second time was at home nearly two decades later. Now a police detective, Decker returned from a stakeout one evening and entered a nightmare–his wife, young daughter, and brother-in-law had been murdered.
His family destroyed, their killer’s identity as mysterious as the motive behind the crime, and unable to forget a single detail from that horrible night, Decker finds his world collapsing around him. He leaves the police force, loses his home, and winds up on the street, taking piecemeal jobs as a private investigator when he can.
But over a year later, a man turns himself in to the police and confesses to the murders. At the same time a horrific event nearly brings Burlington to its knees, and Decker is called back in to help with this investigation. Decker also seizes his chance to learn what really happened to his family that night. To uncover the stunning truth, he must use his remarkable gifts and confront the burdens that go along with them. He must endure the memories he would much rather forget. And he may have to make the ultimate sacrifice.
This does not mean that Memory Man is a lesser novel – far from it. I would very much recommended this novel to all fans of thriller and crime fiction.

Reviews: Kate Anderson Brower – The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-kate-anderson-brower-the-residence-inside-the-private-world-of-the-white-house/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-kate-anderson-brower-the-residence-inside-the-private-world-of-the-white-house/#respond Mon, 13 Apr 2015 16:35:59 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=396 Schermafbeelding 2015-04-13 om 18.35.05A remarkable history with elements of both In the President’s Secret Service andThe Butler, The Residence offers an intimate account of the service staff of the White House, from the Kennedys to the Obamas.

America’s First Families are unknowable in many ways. No one has insight into their true character like the people who serve their meals and make their beds every day. Full of stories and details by turns dramatic, humorous, and heartwarming, The Residence reveals daily life in the White House as it is really lived through the voices of the maids, butlers, cooks, florists, doormen, engineers, and others who tend to the needs of the President and First Family.

These dedicated professionals maintain the six-floor mansion’s 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, 28 fireplaces, three elevators, and eight staircases, and prepare everything from hors d’oeuvres for intimate gatherings to meals served at elaborate state dinners. Over the course of the day, they gather in the lower level’s basement kitchen to share stories, trade secrets, forge lifelong friendships, and sometimes even fall in love.

Combining incredible first-person anecdotes from extensive interviews with scores of White House staff members—many speaking for the first time—with archival research, Kate Andersen Brower tells their story. She reveals the intimacy between the First Family and the people who serve them, as well as tension that has shaken the staff over the decades. From the housekeeper and engineer who fell in love while serving President Reagan to Jackie Kennedy’s private moment of grief with a beloved staffer after her husband’s assassination to the tumultuous days surrounding President Nixon’s resignation and President Clinton’s impeachment battle, The Residence is full of surprising and moving details that illuminate day-to-day life at the White House.

The revelation of this book is that life inside the White House is quite ordinary. Birthday candles are blown out. White House children smoke dope. People die, people marry. The head chef and the pastry chef feud. First families came and went. Life goes on, the republic survives, and the staff abets and abides.

While the country viewed the Clinton presidential years from the outside, dozens of people had a first-hand look at how the First Family conducted themselves.

Reviews: John Renehan – The Valley http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-john-renehan-the-valley/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-john-renehan-the-valley/#respond Sun, 12 Apr 2015 16:14:18 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=393 ValleyBlack didn’t know its name, but he knew it lay deeper and higher than any other place Americans had ventured. You had to travel through a network of interlinked valleys, past all the other remote American outposts, just to get to its mouth. Everything about the place was myth and rumor, but one fact was clear: There were many valleys in the mountains of Afghanistan, and most were hard places where people died hard deaths. But there was only one Valley. It was the farthest, and the hardest, and the worst.

When Black, a deskbound admin officer, is sent up the Valley to investigate a warning shot fired by a near-forgotten platoon, he can only see it as the final bureaucratic insult in a short and unhappy Army career. What he doesn’t know is that his investigation puts at risk the centuries-old arrangements that keep this violent land in fragile balance, and will launch a shattering personal odyssey of obsession and discovery as Black reckons with the platoon’s dark secrets, accumulated over endless hours fighting and dying in defense of an indefensible piece of land.

The Valley is a riveting tour de force that changes our understanding of the men who fight our wars and an

A must-read if you want a glimpse of the turmoil Americans faced in Afghanistan or if you just want a page-flipping good yarn.

And there are some revelations about “the Monk” at the end of the novel that I don’t believe for one moment. But overall this novel is well worth a reader’s time, and I recommend it.

I could not put this book down, I had to know what’s going on! Renehan does an excellent job with the pace, the plot, the characters, and the backdrop. All of the pieces not only fit, they fit perfectly. I can’t wait to see what this author offers us next.

The rot that has been infesting the outpost fails to surprise, and Black’s interior thought process is less interesting than the actions he has been ordered to carry out.

Reviews: Steven Millhauser – A Voice in the Night http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-steven-millhauser-a-voice-in-the-night/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-steven-millhauser-a-voice-in-the-night/#respond Sat, 11 Apr 2015 15:30:03 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=387 VoiceBeloved for the lens of the strange he places on small town life, Steven Millhauser further reveals in Voices in the Night the darkest parts of our inner selves to brilliant and dazzling effect. Here are stories of wondrously imaginative hyperrealism, stories that pose unforgettably unsettling what-ifs, or that find barely perceivable evils within the safe boundaries of our towns, homes, and even within our bodies.

Here, too, are stories culled from religion and fables: Samuel, who hears the voice of God calling him in the night; a young, pre-enlightenment Buddha, who searches for his purpose in life; Rapunzel and her Prince, who struggle to fit the real world to their dream.

Heightened by magic, the divine, and the uncanny, shot through with sly and winning humor, Voices in the Night seamlessly combines the whimsy and surprise of the familiar with intoxicating fantasies that take us beyond our daily lives, all done with the hallmark sleight of hand and astonishing virtuosity of one of our greatest contemporary storytellers.

Like Fox Mulder, or even Wes Anderson, Millhauser is a delightfully playful truth-seeker who uses factual language not as a definitive descriptior, but as a jumping-off point for fuller understanding.

Millhauser is also the last writer who’d have a problem with abandoning the laws of physics if he can make a good story out of it.

 

Read the full review on Star Tribune

“A Voice in the Night” gets much more complex when we factor in section III and its four nights of insomnia. Yes, the Author thinks back to his young self, wondering if that’s how it happened or if, as a writer is wont to do, he is padding the story. But he also considers his old thoughts on what it meant to be a Jew, what it was like living by New York City as its neighborhoods evolved over sixty years, and, importantly, what it means to be called, in his case, as a writer.

Reviews: Ryan Gattis – All Involved http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-ryan-gattis-all-involved/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-ryan-gattis-all-involved/#respond Fri, 10 Apr 2015 11:24:36 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=384 Ryan GattisA propulsive and ambitious novel as electrifying as The Wire, from a writer hailed as the West Coast’s Richard Price—a mesmerizing epic of crime and opportunity, race, revenge, and loyalty, set in the chaotic streets of South Central L.A. in the wake of one of the most notorious and incendiary trials of the 1990s

At 3:15 p.m. on April 29, 1992, a jury acquitted three white Los Angeles Police Department officers charged with using excessive force to subdue a black man named Rodney King, and failed to reach a verdict on the same charges involving a fourth officer. Less than two hours later, the city exploded in violence that lasted six days. In nearly 121 hours, fifty-three lives were lost. But there were even more deaths unaccounted for: violence that occurred outside of active rioting sites by those who used the chaos to viciously settle old scores.

A gritty and cinematic work of fiction, All Involved vividly re-creates this turbulent and terrifying time, set in a sliver of Los Angeles largely ignored by the media during the riots. Ryan Gattis tells seventeen interconnected first-person narratives that paint a portrait of modern America itself—laying bare our history, our prejudices, and our complexities. With characters that capture the voices of gang members, firefighters, graffiti kids, and nurses caught up in these extraordinary circumstances, All Involved is a literary tour de force that catapults this edgy writer into the ranks of such legendary talents as Dennis Lehane and George V. Higgins.

I am, despite the phantom injuries, a huge, huge fan of this book. It would be a little embarrassing, but I know that All Involved is absolutely stunning, and worth pushing into the hands of every person I meet, and worth tweeting about on a regular basis. If it’s possible to be a fangirl for a book, then I am one because, even though we’ve barely started the year, I can confidently say that this is one of the best books of 2015, if not the best. Come back to me in December 2015, and I’ll say it again.

Still, the reader will be forgiven for wondering what the point might be, other than that life is unfair, confusing and often ugly—and for that, we have the film Magnolia. Competent but not especially memorable.

Read the full review on Kirkus

Gattis has picked a historical subject that couldn’t be more timely. He takes a situation that was literally viewed by many of us as black and white and shows the colors, shades, and textures of it. He makes the lives of All Involved vivid and important.

Reviews; Nora Roberts – The Villa http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-nora-roberts-the-villa/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-nora-roberts-the-villa/#respond Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:24:29 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=381 villaPR executive Sophia Giambelli loves her job and has never worried about competition. For three generations, her family’s wines have been world-renowned for their quality. But things are about to change at Villa Giambelli. Tereza, the matriarch, has announced a merger with the MacMillan family’s winery—and Sophia will be assuming a new role. As a savvy businesswoman, she knows she must be prepared for anything…but she isn’t prepared for Tyler MacMillan. They’ve been ordered to work together very closely, to facilitate the merger. Sophia must teach Ty the finer points of marketing—and Ty, in turn, shows her how to get down and dirty, to use the sun, rain, and earth to coax the sweetest grapes from the vineyard.

As they toil together, both in and out of the fields, Sophia is torn between a powerful attraction and a professional rivalry. At the end of the season, the course of the company’s future—and the legacy of the villa—may take an entirely new direction. And when acts of sabotage threaten both the family business and the family itself, Sophia’s quest will be not only for dominance, but also for survival.

In the end, my loyalty to buying Roberts’ books the minute they’re released has been restored. Those patient enough to wait for this book in paperback several months hence will definitely be rewarded, but those, like me, who tend towards impatience, should feel confident their hard-earned money will be well spent on this book if they can’t hold out for all those months.

Read the full review on All about Romance

Although the suspense element was central to the novel, Sophia and Tyler did not really understand that their business was under a concerted attack until near the end. As a result, much of their flailing around was without direction. Fortunately, Roberts’ writing is strong enough to carry the novel despite a relatively weak motivation for hero and heroine (basically each wants to preserve the status quo rather than seeking a more active result).

Overall, The Villa is vintage Roberts, a grand cru label for the bestseller lists; in expectation, the publisher is planning a first printing of 500,000. Literary Guild main selection; author tour.

Reviews: Steve Berry – The Patriot Threat (Cotton Malone) http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-steve-berry-the-patriot-threat-cotton-malone/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-steve-berry-the-patriot-threat-cotton-malone/#respond Wed, 08 Apr 2015 09:41:56 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=377 berryThe 16th Amendment to the Constitution is why Americans pay income taxes. But what if there were problems associated with that amendment? Secrets that call into question decades of tax collecting? In fact, there is a surprising truth to this hidden possibility.

Cotton Malone, once a member of an elite intelligence division within the Justice Department known as the Magellan Billet, is now retired and owns an old bookshop in Denmark. But when his former-boss, Stephanie Nelle, asks him to track a rogue North Korean who may have acquired some top secret Treasury Department files–the kind that could bring the United States to its knees–Malone is vaulted into a harrowing twenty-four hour chase that begins on the canals in Venice and ends in the remote highlands of Croatia.

With appearances by Franklin Roosevelt, Andrew Mellon, a curious painting that still hangs in the National Gallery of Art, and some eye-opening revelations from the $1 bill, this riveting, non-stop adventure is trademark Steve Berry–90% historical fact, 10% exciting speculation–a provocative thriller posing a dangerous question: What if the Federal income tax is illegal?

SteveSpeculation and gunplay make “The Patriot Threat” one of Berry’s best books to date.

Read the full review on Star Tribune

I definitely did not feel anything like that in this novel.  It was a bit distracting as I like to feel a connection to the characters; I mean, I should have felt some compassion for Hana, Kim’s daughter, but the writing didn’t encourage empathy, but rather detachment, and because of that, I wasn’t upset at what happened to her when I should have felt sadness and disappointment over someone who had such a rough life. Because of this, I felt the plot was disconnected.

Reviews: James Patterson – NYPD Red 3 http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-james-patterson-nypd-red-3/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-james-patterson-nypd-red-3/#respond Tue, 07 Apr 2015 09:27:56 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=374 NYPDNYPD Red is the elite, highly trained task force assigned to protect the rich, the famous, and the connected. And Detective Zach Jordan and his partner Kylie MacDonald-the woman who broke his heart at the police academy-are the best of the best, brilliant and tireless investigators who will stop at nothing to deliver justice.

Zach and Kylie’s New Year’s celebrations are cut short when they’re called to the home of billionaire businessman Hunter Alden, Jr. after he makes a grisly discovery in his townhouse garage. When Alden’s teenage son goes missing soon afterwards, and his father seems oddly reluctant to find him, Zach and Kylie find themselves in the middle of a chilling conspiracy that threatens everyone in its wake-especially their city’s most powerful citizens.

NYPD Red is a great book. One of the best I have ever read. It is full of suspense and action and mystery it just pulls you in and you don’t want to stop reading. It was great writing and seemed so realistic it felt like I was there the whole time. I would recommend this book to any readers who are into action, suspense, and mystery books. It was over all a great book I would read it again if I could.

Read the full review on Teen Ink

NYPD RED ends — in a different way than one might suppose — with the promise of more stories (or at least one) and potential complications. Though the book is complete in itself, there are plenty of interesting characters who could carry this as a series for as long as Patterson and Karp will want it to go. If indeed that will be the case, I would like to see more installments sooner than later.

Characters shoot their way through an entertaining script right to a conclusion with a hole in it.

Although, there is never any mystery about who is doing the killing and why he’s selecting particular targets, a very clever plot element is revealed in the explosive conclusion. This book is highly recommended and hopefully is the only the first of many Patterson and Karp collaborations.

Reviews: Harlan Coben – The Stranger http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-harlan-coben-the-stranger/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-harlan-coben-the-stranger/#respond Mon, 06 Apr 2015 09:09:10 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=371 Harlan-Coben-The-StrangerThe Stranger appears out of nowhere, perhaps in a bar, or a parking lot, or at the grocery store. His identity is unknown. His motives are unclear. His information is undeniable. Then he whispers a few words in your ear and disappears, leaving you picking up the pieces of your shattered world.

Adam Price has a lot to lose: a comfortable marriage to a beautiful woman, two wonderful sons, and all the trappings of the American Dream: a big house, a good job, a seemingly perfect life.

Then he runs into the Stranger. When he learns a devastating secret about his wife, Corinne, he confronts her, and the mirage of perfection disappears as if it never existed at all. Soon Adam finds himself tangled in something far darker than even Corinne’s deception, and realizes that if he doesn’t make exactly the right moves, the conspiracy he’s stumbled into will not only ruin lives—it will end them.

Some of the elements of the overall conspiracy aren’t fully explained, but that doesn’t matter since that makes the scenario all the more believable. Real life doesn’t come wrapped up in a pretty box, and this page-turner is one stranger that readers will want to meet.

Coben can always be relied on to generate thrills from the simplest premises, but his finest tales maintain a core of logic throughout the twists. This 100-proof nightmare ranks among his most potent.

Reviews: Neil Gaiman – Trigger Warning http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-neil-gaiman-trigger-warning/ http://rankingthebooks.com/reviews-neil-gaiman-trigger-warning/#respond Sun, 05 Apr 2015 11:33:57 +0000 http://rankingthebooks.com/?p=268 TriggerMultiple award winning, #1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman returns to dazzle, captivate, haunt, and entertain with this third collection of short fiction followingSmoke and Mirrors and Fragile Things—which includes a never-before publishedAmerican Gods story, “Black Dog,” written exclusively for this volume.

In this new anthology, Neil Gaiman pierces the veil of reality to reveal the enigmatic, shadowy world that lies beneath. Trigger Warning includes previously published pieces of short fiction—stories, verse, and a very special Doctor Who story that was written for the fiftieth anniversary of the beloved series in 2013—as well “Black Dog,” a new tale that revisits the world of American Gods, exclusive to this collection.

Trigger Warning explores the masks we all wear and the people we are beneath them to reveal our vulnerabilities and our truest selves. Here is a rich cornucopia of h
orror and ghosts stories, science fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and poetry that explore the realm of experience and emotion. In Adventure Story—a thematic companion to The Ocean at the End of the Lane—Gaiman ponders death and the way people take their stories with them when they die. His social media experience A Calendar of Tales are short takes inspired by replies to fan tweets about the months of the year—stories of pirates and the March winds, an igloo made of books, and a Mother’s Day card that portends disturbances in the universe. Gaiman offers his own ingenious spin on Sherlock Holmes in his award-nominated mystery tale The Case of Death and Honey. And Click-Clack the Rattlebag explains the creaks and clatter we hear when we’re all alone in the darkness.

A sophisticated writer whose creative genius is unparalleled, Gaiman entrances with his literary alchemy, transporting us deep into the realm of imagination, where the fantastical becomes real and the everyday incandescent. Full of wonder and terror, surprises and amusements, Trigger Warning is a treasury of delights that engage the mind, stir the heart, and shake the soul from one of the most unique and popular literary artists of our day.

Indeed, there is so much that is clever and skilful in among the embarrassments that by the end I was reminded of Paul McCartney, another copiously talented artist, who seems to have no sense of which of his works are breathtakingly good and which breathtakingly bad.

Read the full review on The Guardian

Gaiman’s introduction is the longest piece in the entire book. He explains himself here, makes his case and his excuses. He warns and he details the places where all the following stories came from because, he says, he likes it when authors used to do that. When they used to let the readers in just a little bit.

Read the full review on NPR

There really isn’t much here that would warrant such warnings in particular, but there’s a lot that might challenge the notion that stories are safe places.
