Debra from East Rutherford, NJ

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
I have previously read books by Lisa Jackson.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
Christiana Dodd, Judith McNaught, Sandra Brown, and Fern Michaels are just a few of the other romantic suspense authors I enjoy reading.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
MOST LIKELY TO DIE is a fantastic book, a real page turner that had me sitting up way past midnight to find out what happened next. The characters were very real. Having graduated in the early 1980s and as a product of Catholic schooling, I found the book very easy to relate to and the characters realistic. Each of them had ghosts and insecurities, which served as a reminder that you truly don't know what happens to people behind closed doors.

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
I already read Lisa Jackson, but now I will be looking into getting books by Beverly Barton and Wendy Corsi Staub.


Kathleen from Maryland Hts., MO

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Yes, I have read books by all three of these authors.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
Catherine Coulter, Kathleen Long, Alison Brennan, Brenda Novak, Jayne Ann Krentz, Kay Hooper, JoAnn Ross, Tara Taylor Quinn, Metsy Hingle, Annie Solomon, Jill Shalvis, Stella Cameron, Suzanne Brockmann, Nora Roberts and Linda Lael Miller, just to name a few.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
MOST LIKELY TO DIE was written by three very talented authors who know how to write suspense! It is a book you will not want to put down until the end! It introduces a graduating class that had experienced a terrible murder. Twenty years later, a reunion brings back the terror, and these classmates have to figure out who among them is out to kill them. Three stories come together to culminate with one dramatic ending.

Thank you for the opportunity to win this book and give a review!!! It was a GREAT read and I highly recommend it!

Yes, I will read what ever these authors write!

I have read some of Sue Grafton, Patricia Cornwell and Catherine Coulter.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
I received my copy of MOST LIKELY TO DIE on the 11th of January and just finished reading it. I had a hard time putting it down.

Tami Hoag and Iris Johansen. I like them all, really.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
Well, I finished it all in one afternoon --- in fact, today, the same afternoon it arrived in the mail, so I guess it was great! But, I have to admit that I [guessed the killer] around the part when [a character] got murdered in the park.

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Absolutely! Thanks for picking me and sending me this great book. You have just given me a fantastic winter afternoon!


Sheryl from Deerfield Beach, FL

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
I have not had the pleasure of reading any books by these authors before.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
Tess Gerritsen, Sandra Brown, Colleen Coble, Brandilyn Collins, Dee Henderson, Nora Roberts, Hannah Alexander, Susan May Warren, and Janet Evanovich.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
It kept my heart pounding for the entire length of the book. I had a very hard time putting it down, but forced myself to, periodically, in order to make sure I kept breathing. <grin> The closest thing that I can compare it to is watching the season premiere of "24"!

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
I would be excited to read future books by all three of the authors. In fact, I plan on reading their previous books as well!


Tammy from Spartanburg, SC

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Jackson and Barton, yes.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
Jayne Ann Krentz, Elizabeth Lowell, Christina Dodd, Lisa Gardner, Erica Spindler, and many others.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
I enjoyed it. I figured out [who the killer was] before the end, but that never spoils my reading --- I could always be wrong. I really liked the way the authors divided up the book, with each doing one particular character, and never really noticed any real departure from the overall tone. The introduction of Bella's lover was a bit abrupt, but nicely expanded on later. I liked the main characters --- I didn't feel I knew as much about Rachel, but her trauma seemed much more in the past, while Lindsay and Kristen had the more current drama going on.

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Definitely.


Bernice from Brighton, MI

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
This is the first book I read by the above authors.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
Colleen Coble and Diane Chamberlain.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
I enjoyed reading the book, but thought there was a lot of repetition. As a teacher, I would probably give it a B.

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Yes, I enjoyed the romance and suspense, but would have liked more twists in the story.


Jennifer from Kansas City, MO

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
No, I have not.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
I don't read much romantic suspense. I tend to read more chick lit.

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
I liked the book. I was going outside the genre that I normally read, but it kept my attention and kept me guessing. It was a little too gory for me at times, though. It still had elements that kept me interested, such as following the characters' personal lives and the main character's relationships with her family. Overall, I feel like it was well written.

Would you ever read a future book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
Possibly. This book was just a little too violent for me.


Liz from Austin, TX

Have you previously read a book by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton or Wendy Corsi Staub?
I have read most of Lisa Jackson's books. I have not read any other books by Barton or Staub, although now I will purchase some of their previous titles.

What other romantic suspense authors do you read?
I am not sure what other authors would be considered "romantic suspense" writers. I have enjoyed Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series --- they are easy, fun reads --- and I also like all the books by Stuart Woods, but I am not sure if they [belong in this genre]. What other authors fall into this category?

What did you think of MOST LIKELY TO DIE?
For me, the book started off rather slowly. It did not grab my attention right away, but after about the third or fourth chapter, it was a page turner. I was able to figure out the killer well before the end, but it was still a great read! Thank you for the opportunity to read and review the book.
