Techno-thrillers rock!

So... we finished up "The Murderer's Daughters" this week. Not a horrible book if you like to evaluate the human Psyche and don't mind being irritated at the main characters' lack of feeling and emotion. I think we all agreed that, yet again, we were disappointed with the book.
And that left us with a problem. We're becoming book snobs! After tons of suggestions from many friends, we were afraid to be disappointed yet again. I brought up a book that I started last week after finishing TMD. it was dirt cheap on our kindles: a $.99 sale! The book is a techno-thriller by JA Konrath called "The List." It's about a very rich man with money to burn on a little project: cloning. Except he doesn't clone just anybody, he clones the most influential men and women from history (according to him). A small tattooed number on the bottom of each clone's foot is their only clue to their identities. The book is fast-paced, action-packed, and laugh-out-loud funny (at times). It may also make it a little difficult to fall asleep at night without double checking that the windows and doors are locked! I really like this book, and the feedback from Cris & Gerald sounds lime they're enjoying it too. You can't beat 99 cents!
Happy Reading!
