Guest Anonymous Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Has anybody read any of her books? I picked up The Surgeon today for 40p and liked the look of it from the back cover. I also picked up a couple of Linda Farstein and one Lisa Gardner, I really do HAVE to stop buying until I can get my (to read* list down, LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I read The Apprentice and really enjoyed. It's a follow on (although not actually a sequel) to The Surgeon, so I got hold of that, and liked that too. The Sinner was also good. I recently read one of her older ones.. can't remember the name, and it was quite a bit different - it reminded me of John Saul's older books. I've just been flicking through Amazon, and Gravity sounds really cool - has anyone tried that one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I've just been flicking through Amazon, and Gravity sounds really cool - has anyone tried that one? GreenMetropolis had an 'excellent' copy, and I had credit in my account, so.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanna Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I'm sure I will, I'd be surprised if she wrote anything sucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inanna Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Now reading Under The Knife, so far so good, and I have a further 4 books of hers sat on my shelf. Her new book is out next week as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I am another big Gerritsen fan. I have read all the Jane Rizzoli/Maura Isles books (The Surgeon, The Apprentice, The Sinner, Body Double, and Vanish), and am now working my way through the other books of which I have read Life Support, and Call After Midnight. I wouldn't say that Call After Midnight is a romance - it's still a thriller. Warning about these books - once you start you can't stop, so make sure you have a few hours spare when you start.

Acesare* Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Reading her interview got me interested and I picked up The Surgeon for 30p in a charity shop - can't argue with a price that low! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
