great lake business
It helped that I am familiar with the area and aware of the businesses in the area. I found it interesting. It would be great for someone wanting to know some of the business history in the area.

Enjoyed not being able to put it down.
As In his first book, "Rainbow's End," Bob Adamov kept my attention throughout the book with many of the same characters, numerous subtle hints to the outcomes, as well as twists and turns that were totally unexpected to me. The reading was comfortable, exciting, and easy, almost reminding me of my younger years reading Hardy Boys mysteries (albeit much more in-depth). I really enjoyed how Bob uses real places like restaurants and bars in Put-In-Bay and elsewhere that I've visited, describing them to a "T." I'd suspect many of the people are real with only their names changed in his stories. It was fun trying to discern the fiction from the facts!The ending was again different than I expected (as also in "Rainbow's End"), but again left me somewhat emotionally touched in a very positive way. I'm looking forward to his third in this series and hopefully more after that. Bob's books are also very appropriate for younger readers (I'm in my early 50's).

pierce the veil
I just finished reading Pierce the Veil. This is a must read book. I also read Rainbow's End the first book to the sequel. I recommond both of these book. If you like drama you will love these books. I can't wait for the next one to come out. It was really hard to put the book down. I really love to read and the book must be good and this book is so good. I think anyone who read it will really like. As I said a must read book.Michele

A Great Escape
Bob uses local color and history to create a background for an exciting and absorbing adventure. His villan is "villanous" and his hero is believable. Great reading!

Pierce The Veil
I found this book intriguing, at the least. Once you start, you can't put it down. Bob obviously has a gift for good story telling. My question is: when's the MOVIE coming out?
