Harlan Coben books are an automatic read for me. The last few have been mediocre at best and I have been disappointed.

Home was a little slow moving at first and not quite up to Coben's usually exciting, "can't put down" adventure. Nonetheless, I love Myron and Win along with Mickey and girlfriend Ema. Together they look for two boys who were kidnapped 10 years previous and the story moves along at a better pace.

Some big twists you don't see coming, when many secrets are finally revealed until finally justice is served.

The very last page made me tear up along with Win and pulled at my heartstrings!! Great ending!

Home is the first Harlan Coben book I have read, but it is the eleventh book in the Myron Bolitar series. Clearly, I have been missing out! The book moves quickly and keeps the suspense going until the very last page. That, in itself, is enough for a great mystery. The added bonus of this book is that it is as much about the characters as the plot, and I love the characters!

I think I now know why most of the NYT novels don't work for me. Its always that same, a long story with too many people to keep track of, winding to an ending that they make so you can't guess the ending till your there. No literal value. Books that are just to pass the time. The only excpetions have been Reacher novels and Grisham books.

This one is about two kids that are kidnapped and they they find one 10 yrs later.

I've read many books written by Harlan Coben but this one in my opinion wasn't one of his best. The book starts with a good plot but really stalls for most of the remainder, even the ending didn't measure up.

I would give this 5 stars but, for me, it had too much filler

It has been several years since the last Bolitar/Win book, although this one is good (4 stars) it was bogged down with too much filler, Coben has to explain nearly detail that was in all the previous books, the background on each of the 'main' characters, then again for the 'minor' characters and that just took up pages and time to wade through, then add background for each characters 'past' and 'childhood' etc, you get pages of his parents, his brother/sister, nephew and so on

If this is a first Coben book for you then I understand where that would be to your benefit but for the fans of the series that have already read the previous series then it was just time consuming
