Over the last couple days I took the time to read Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane, My interest was immediately piqued by the description on the back, a psychotic child murderer loose on an Alcatraz-esqe island. Of course the fact that it was going to be put on film by Scorsese starring Leonardo Dicaprio also got me interested. This book was a great read, however if you read the description you may be expecting something a little along the lines of "Silence of the Lambs." This is not the case however in fact the book comes of a little more along the lines of "Memento." The story reads great however despite being a little slow at times this only helps to accelerate the story straight into the mindbender of an ending. Although I am not a big fan of thrillers, this book is obviously what makes the genre so popular; and I would strongly recommend picking it up.

ReplyDeleteI got your package - that was far more awesome than a letter would have been. The Punisher should have ripped the whale to death with his bare hands though.
