Took me FOREVER to get through that one. Loved PILLARS OF THE EARTH, but WWE was boring ... at least to me.
I was the opposite. I started Pillars of the Earth set it down and finally read it a couple of years later. I didn't have that problem w/ WWE.

Just got the new James Patterson Women's Murder Club title in ... THE 8TH CONFESSION ... love these girls. Hate that the TV series didn't make it.

Have also requested Ludlum's (well, the ghost writer, pun intended) new one.

I'm almost done w/ Stuart Woods Loitering with Intent. It takes place in Key West. It's a pretty quick read.

Several people I know have said the same thing. WWE sure has enjoyed a good run.
