Reseñas de la Crítica

“Coben adroitly applies the fundamental rules of thrillerdom (offer a raft of potential villains; keep the action moving at breakneck speed) in this highly entertaining novel...a page-turner!” ( Publishers Weekly)

It was ok

Harlan warned us in the intro it was his second book and not as good as later books. He was right.

The Violent Politics of HIV & Est'd Medical Rsrch

What did you like best about Miracle Cure? What did you like least?

The gratuitous violence thought necessary to make the point

What other book might you compare Miracle Cure to and why?

Like most other thrillers with HIVas the main story line

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Scott Brick has a good voice albeit he is excessively melodramatic and after awhile all his characters sound the same. Just read the story without all of the excessive conspiratorialy voicing.

Did Miracle Cure inspire you to do anything?

No, unless avoiding other Harlan Coben's stories if they exhibit the same level of unecessary discriptions of violence.

Not the best

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No, I really do not like Harlan Coben. I listen because he is the favor writer of my husband. He preaches.

Would you ever listen to anything by Harlan Coben again?

yes, but I will not do it anymore,not even if the books is free

Which scene was your favorite?

No one

Do you think Miracle Cure needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

No way

It was a bit confusing

I’m not sure if it was the narrative or the narrator. As the book was wrapping up it was difficult to know who the narrator was in the book. This made the twists a bit confusing. Thus a good book was not as good as it may have been with 2 narrators or a change in voices.
This happened on the last book I listened to and I kept backing it up and re-listening. Now I understand why.
I do enjoy the writer.

Miracle Cure

This is an excellent book. So very well written and the characters are fantastic. it felt like you were reading a true crime.
