Rem I talked abt her new bk in my previous post? The Mephisto Club? It's Tess Gerritsen's 6th books and she's stil going!!! Cos the bk din really ended..and also, one of the characters said something like，"We're not the only ones". Duh...tis tells u there're more to come. She's a great author, all her bks(the 6 that i have), all are NYT(New York Times) Bestseller!!! How many authors can maintain that kind of achievements when the bks are out with quite a long break in btw each bk???Always loved Tess...esp after i picked up her bk- The Sinner. It was her 3rd, but it was my 1st. After i finished reading the bk, i wanted more, i needed more! I went to looked for her 1st and 2nd bk... The Surgeon and The Apprentice respectively. And I found both! Lucky me! ^^ And abt that time..i think..or maybe slightly later, her 4th bk came out: Body Double. It was just as imcredible as the 1st 3.... The way she describes the crime scenes and the process of revealing the mystery behind the veil...it's so luring that all of her bks made me wanna dig deeper into the bk, into the story.Nt many authors can make me forget abt sleep just to read wad happens next. She's one of the many few.. Another one I'm pretty crazy abt is the author of Charmed. But that was cos i like the TV Show so mch that i came to love the bks too... Tess was just like *snap* a sudden collide with her bk and her name, and the nxt thing i know, i'm collecting all her bks as i read along.. And always waiting for her nxt bk to come out. Then came her 5th bk: Vanish. It wasnt so thrilling as the other 4...but nt disappointed, cos it still kept me on my toes to wanting to find out more...esp at the later half of teh bk... But hey, all authors nid a break before a breakthru. For Tess Gerritsen, in my opinion, Vanish was her break, and her 6th Bk, The Mephisto Club was her breakthru. Tis new bk..when i 1st saw it on sale at Kinokuniya, I quickly reserved the bk, and borrowed my father's card to buy it... I spent 2 days to finished up the bk. For those who know me, I can finish up a bk within one day, but cos of me working, gotta split into 2 days. Can u imagine i gt thru half of the bk on the day i bought the bk itself even when I'm wrking on that very day and the nxt day? If I'm nt wrking on the day i bought the bk(17th Sept), I'll be thru the bk by the end of the day for sure! :DShe's one of the best authors and one I;ll put my feet down to recommend to u guys out there. But her bk if u like the crime-based kind. Her descriptions are so vivid and lurid that u felt as if ur there on the crime scene viewing the death scenes and ur actually performing the autopsy on the dead... Wow! It was simpl amazing! Go buy her bk now! Gotta tell u guys, if u guys are nt familiar with the Christianity terms(esp in her 6th bks..loads of them), take ur time in reading word for wrd... And if can, read it again to really understand. I'm reading it again on Tue when I'm having a break from wrk. :DTess Gerritsen, YOU ROCK! YEAH!!! :D:D:D
