Nothing to Lose (Jack Reacher Novels)
Lee Child
Delacorte Press, 2008
Reacher Book - Nothing to Lose
+ I read it, and I liked it
This book wasn't quite as good as most of them. I think the political leanings of Lee Child got in the way of Jack Reachers character. I'll keep reading but hope Child gets back to the Reacher of previous books.

Grotesque (Vintage International)
Natsuo Kirino
Vintage, 2008
Spoiled by last section
A long book, written in several autobiographical sections narrating the action from contradictory points of view. It's an innovative and engaging structure.
