The Book Of Lies

I have just finished reading the novel The Book of Lies by Brad Meltzer, and I thought it was fantastic. Bases around a man struggling to clear his and his fathers name, he finds himself in the hardest of all places; do the unethical or risk being know as a traitor for the rest of his life. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys action with a little bit of comedy. This is a fast-paced novel that is sure to keep the reader turning the pages at a mile a minute. From start to finish this novel was full of conflict, leaving no dull moments. For me this was a major plus, if the story gets boring I get bored and I usually end up choosing a different book, I need something that will keep me glued to my seat and this novel did just that. I would most closely relate this book to Frankenstein because they share a common theme of finding ones self. In Frankenstein the main character, victor, struggles to find himself and what he stands for. Is he a scientist who needs to always find the truth or a responsible human being who does the right thing. This is much the same in The book of Lies where the main character Calvin must decide to do the ethical thing and turn himself in or break the law and follow a hunch that will brand him as a traitor if his hunch is incorrect. Another book that I would like to read in the future is The Hunger Games I have heard great things about it and cant wait to read it.
