Books are and will always be my refuge from reality. The idea that therein lies within the pages of even the most dilapidated book a power to conjure universes you hardly imagined is a wonderful feeling.
One of my favorite books featuring Jack Reacher. A damsel in distress and Mr. Reacher resolves her problems by doing what he does best - breaking bones. Brilliant depiction of the geography by the author, you almost feel the dust settle on your skin when Reacher drives around and feel the tension in the barn laced with an interesting mind game. Loved every minute of reading this book.
