Ending was expected, but I guess if you have such a long running series, pretty much ending will always be expected. Bad guy meets Reacher, bad guy loses, Reacher wins. Fun to read though, which is the main point. Going to keep reading them.

Don't think it ticked any of the Bingo boxes though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Yeah. When I first tried audio, I couldn’t do it at all. I just kept missing too much. I had to teach myself how to do it and once it clicked, I couldn’t go back.

I find it helps me stay on task when doing tedious tasks while listening, but I can’t work my day job and listen either.

So I started the audiobook and my brain can't get past the fact the narrator sounds like Kronk from Emperors new groove...

Wow good ear! I didn’t notice that at first, but the narrator did model the character on Patrick Warburton! As the book progresses, Carl evolves into his own distinctive voice.

I won’t say much more about it because I don’t want to spoil it, but if you make to book 6, the real Patrick Warburton has a cameo.

Lol that's hilarious, can't wait.

Its entertaining so far, but I can only really listen in the car. But my commute is long, so not too much of a problem.

It’s a good way to break up a long drive! But uh…don’t listen with kids in the car.
