Great review; however, this does not sound like a book for me. The book sounds exciting and thrilling but I don't find myself drawn to it. I think the cover of the book is fascinating and does well with the plot of the book. Congratulations Mr. Winnick on being today's BOTD.

Good review. I like that even though this is a series book it stands alone. I’m a stickler to reading books in order so this will have to wait but it seems full of fast pace action and I can’t wait to start the series.

The Date Farm by Jack Winnick is a suspence thriller. This seemed a perfect fun reading. Terrorism, investigation, and romance are perfect together. Congratulations on #botd.

The title of the book is definitely misleading. I think you did a good job with the review. It is good that this is a standalone I love suspense stories.

With well-developed characters and a fast-moving plot, filled with action, suspense, and emotion, this one sounds like a winner to me!! Thank you so much! :-)
I appreciate your comment.

Thank you, Steven.

Thank you.

The title didn’t give a very good indication about what the book would be about, so I was excited to see from your review that it includes many of the elements I enjoy in a book! The characters are well-developed and the the plot is suspenseful; sounds like a great book to me!
Thank you.

My kind of book. It is sometimes stressful when an author embarks on an international thriller but falls short on imagination. I love how the author developed the characters with superb wordflow. Nice review.
