Hold Tight (by Harlan Coben)

Q. Why did you choose this book?
A. This was a book club selection that I ordered because I liked the author's other books I'd read.

Q. Did you like the story?
A. I liked the central story a lot, but I thought there were unnecessary subplots that distracted somewhat from the main story. I wish some of the subplots had been left out of this story and developed into books of their own.

Q. Were the characters believable?
A. Yes, they became real people to me.

Q. Did you like the writing style?
A. Yes. As stated above, the author's previous works led me to choose this book.

Q. Did you think about the book when you were doing other things?
A. Once or twice, but not obsessively.

Q. Was there anything about the book that drove you nuts?
A. Not "nuts" exactly, but it was hard to suspend the disbelief that so many rare situations could happen simultaneously to a small group of people.

Q. How did you feel when you finished the book?
A. Skeptical that all the subplots could have been tied up so neatly.

Q. Will you keep the book to reread later?
A. I might keep it, but only because I've kept his others.

Q. Any final thoughts about the book?
A. When it comes to subplots, maybe less is more.
