Lifeguard - James Patterson
My 2nd Patterson... Even BETTER than my first!
This is my second Patterson novel, and I enjoyed it even more the than first (Beach Road).
Lifeguard pulled me in, and kept me trapped in it's magic. I stayed up all night reading, I couldn't put "Lifeguard" down.
I'm beginning to see why people throw Pattersons name in "The Best Author" debate. Not only are his novels exciting and full of mystery and suspense, but the short chapters make his novels extremely easy to read.
Lifeguard is no exception. It starts with a bang, and ends with an all-out 4th of July fireworks display.
Great characters, better story, and tons of twists and turns.
Final Verdict:
5/5
Borrow or Buy?: This is a book I borrowed, and is now on my must buy list. If you're looking for a good mystery/suspense novel, this one belongs on your bookshelf.

LIFEGUARD BY JAMES PATTERSONReview created: 10/22/06

Lifeguard is yet another wild thriller from James Patterson and co-authored by Andrew Gross. The location this time is a Florida resort, the main character Ned Kelly is working as a lifeguard at the resort and meets the woman of his dreams. Ned's cousin convinces him to partake in $5 million robbery that goes wrong and thing only get worse. This thriller is fast paced and I found it to be an easy read. Again James Patterson doen't let his readers down. A very good book to read on the beach or pool side or it will keep you up all night.

The Lifeguard is a fast paced mystery/thriller with likable characters and a good story that kept me guessing right up to the end. I'm a big fan of James Patterson's and, for me, this is one of his best. Easy to read with Patterson's short chapters - a good book to read lying on the beach or curled up by the fire.

An easy job until murder is involvedReview created: 09/11/09
by:
) Ned Kelly had the lazy, fun job of being a lifeguard. He meets a beautiful woman. A perfect score until she was murdered. In the meantime, Ned's cousins were preparing for a heist. Ned went along for his share of the booty. Everything goes wrong. Ned the lifeguard becomes a side-line detective. Running for his life, trying to solve more murders, and meeting another lovely detective. This is a rapid moving plot full of mystery, threat, and the suspense is on every page. Only Patterson can write the ending. Not even the reader can guess this one. Jump on board for the ride of your life.

Lifeguard by Gross and PattersonReview created: 04/04/09

I am a big Patterson fan. Each one of his novels keeps you on the edge, but still wanting more. Other action writers seem to have one small portion of the book that is exciting and the rest is building up to the story or closing you down. Patterson keeps you on the rock and roll from cover to cover.

Lifeguard reviewReview created: 12/08/08

I decided to buy Lifeguard to further increase my James Patterson collection. I thought that it was a pretty good book. It was better than most of Patterson`s non-Alex Cross books with it`s great twists and turns in the latter part of the book that will have you hooked and reading into the end. I highly recommend it to everyone.

I love to read mystery books and Patterson is one of the best authors of mysteries. The short chapters seem to fly by and keep you wondering who done it. There wasn't a thing wrong with the book but maybe it was too short because I didn't want it to end. I have read a lot of his books so when I saw it on e-bay I decided to get it and I'm glad I did. It's a great book and how much easier can it be but to have it delivered to my door?

I have not read the book yet. The reason I bought the book was that I saw it on a site of a seller who was selling something I wanted. The book was a book I wanted to read for a long time, I had just had not bought it yet and this was my chance to get it at a cheap price.

This was my first James Patterson book and I had trouble putting it down. Ned Kelly gets sweeped up in everything possible that could go wrong. I highly recommend this book! It has prompted me to buy 6 of his other novels.
