I haven't read this, but it sounds intriguing. Lara and Uri also seems like an interesting couple and the thriller genre seems to be a bonus for me. Well written review!

It is a swiftly paced thriller with impeccable heroes. The story revolves around Mossad agents who face off against Islamic terrorists initiating attacks in the United States.

That sounds like an exciting read! Suspense novels with action and excitement can be quite gripping. Enjoy delving into the story and following Uri and Lara's journey to solve the terrorism plot at the Beverly Hills mall.

The title didn't capture me. But the review has caught my interest, based on being action packed and that it is a stand alone read. I may just have to carve some time to read it myself.

It is enthralling to read that the book is based on strong ties to historical events. This is a celebration of the individuals, heroes, who continue to do their best to ensure we are safe. I have added the book to my shelf.

It's great to hear that the review caught your interest for the book "Replay." Sometimes, a compelling review can be more persuasive than the title alone.

Lara and Uri are probably cursing Jack Winnick for ruining their honeymoon! 😅 But gotta admit, Jack's clever plot and a gripping storyline make the book a great read. Perfect for those who love action and spy novels. Top-notch!

Jack Winnick is popular and talented writer on combating terrorism. His Lara and Uri series seems to be quite popular with OBC. You have written the review so well. Congratulations Jack on the Botd!

I love everything about the concept of this book and the series in general. The action was well crafted. I really loved that it wasn't one of the cliche action novels I am used to. Thank you for your review. I loved our power couple, Uri and Lara.

This is one of those books I can't wait to get my hands on. The plot is suspenseful, and I can't wait to read what awaits the couple. Fast-paced is my kinda cuppa coffee! I'm definitely getting this one!

Wow, it seems like "Alooma" could be a really interesting book. The reviewer's enthusiastic tone and use of phrases like "gripped from beginning to end" and "couldn't put it down" indicate that it's a captivating read. The fact that the book is able to seamlessly blend history, suspense, and romance adds another layer of appeal. I'm definitely intrigued and can't wait to get my hands on "Alooma"! Enigmatic atmosphere, kept me intrigued throughout.

I just read this book too, and I did not feel that constant sense of suspense; in fact, I was bored for a lot of it. The terrorists’ constant verbal planning and boasting and speeches, and the long journey home after the NY attack really bogged the story down and slowed the pace. I’m surprised to read everyone else on here raving about it! Different strokes, I suppose! :) Thanks for your wonderful review!

I loved this book. I rated it a 5 out of 5. I thought the characters were very realistic, especially the two agents. If I had to find a fault, it would be the ending. It seemed anticlimactic to me.
