Patterson's "Quickie" Sends Me Back on the "Road" Again!

I finished reading James Patterson's "The Quickie" earlier this evening.  It wasn't a horrible book, but I'm in no hurry to read any more of Patterson's novels in the near future.  It was a game of tit-for-tat and secrets and lies.  Did Paul (the main character's husband) kill Lauren's (the main characters) lover, Scott (who worked with her on the police force)--or was it somebody else??? And did Paul have a "quickie" of his own to confess to? Read for yourself and find out!  As for myself, I am eager to begin a "journey" through Richard Paul Evans' latest novel, "The Forgotten Road!"  I would imagine that the novel picks up where Evans left off with "The Broken Road...."  Chicago celebrity and successful pitchman Charles James is supposed to be dead.  Everyone believes he was killed in a fiery plane crash.  But thanks to a remarkable twist of fate, he's very much alive and ready for a second chance at life--and love.  Narrowly escaping death has brought Charles some clarity: the money, the fame, the fast cars--none  of it was making him happy.  The last time he was happy--truly happy--was when he was married to his ex-wife, Monica, before their connection was destroyed by his ambition and greed.  Charles decides to embark on an epic quest: He will walk the entire length of Route 66, from Chicago to California, where Monica lives, and try to convince her to give him another shot.  Along t he way, Charles  is immersed in the deep and rich history of one of America's most iconic highways.  But the greater journey he finds ins the one he takes in his heart as he meets people along the road who will change his perspective on the world.  But will his transformation be enough to earn redemption?  There's only one way to find out....Time for me to take a "journey" on "The Forgotten Road!"
