Finished: Miracle Cure (Coben). I love reading Harlan Coben books! Especially after reading so many classics, many of which take place in such earlier time periods, and many of which, though are amazing literature, don't move at a quick pace. I discovered my first Harlan Coben book at the Portland, Oregon airport. I was looking for a good book to read on the way home to Florida and picked up Tell No One. I was hooked! I read all his books I could get my hands on after that, going back to the beginning with his Myron Bolitar series. However, Coben had two books before the Bolitar series that weren't published until recent years...Play Dead and Miracle Cure. I read Play Dead a while back and finally, finally read Miracle Cure. He puts a little disclaimer note at the beginning to forgive the writings of a twenty-something novice...but I say pooh pooh! I loved it! :-)

Again, Coben has written a page turner with twists and turns and a surprise villain at the end. But, he also wrote about a subject near and dear to my heart...AIDS. The book is about two doctors in 1991 who run a clinic where they are doing experimental testing on patients with AIDS. They appear to have come across a drug that will turn patients from HIV positive to HIV negative, but someone high up doesn't want them to succeed....or so it seems. Some of the twists were easy for me to put on the backburner of my brain, since I've read so many of his books...but I was still happy to read and see things play out. Love my Harlan Coben! Other than his two Junior Novels, I've now read all of Harlan Coben's book. Another one called Six Years comes out this spring. Can't wait!

Even though Harlan Coben tops my list as "most books read by an author"....I do still plan to push Shakespeare over Coben in that category. :-)
