Terrible. Between Cornwell and Patterson I can't tell which has descended lower in terms of poor story telling. This book is pure marketing. No way this book would have been published if it was a very first effort. What a joke! The fact that this is the same person that once wrote good books, he must be laughing out loud on his yacht in utter disbelief that anyone is actually buying and reading this crap while he makes millions. Unbelievable.

Usually, Paterson's books are the kind of so bad it's good. This book is just so bad, it's bad.
Besides the terrible writing and laughable dialogue, I wanted to read a book, not a prose version of "Snobby Rich" magazine. The "hero" was an obnoxious jerk. It's bad when you're hoping the he gets killed off by a sociopath.
Honeymoon is a snooze inducing waste of paper.

This is another short story drawn out to look like a novel with loose ends that are left dangling. What was in the letter written by the mother - why did the mother kill her husband - etc. etc.
There were some plot elements that just made no sense at all; why was the fact that O'Hara's boss was also his ex-wife not reveled until the ending - does anyone believe that the FBI would tell a suspect that she might get 1.5 million dollar settlement from an insurance policy that does not even exist - etc. etc.
The character development was so thin and shallow that I never cared who might be killed, victims, villain, or FBI agents.
The best I can say is that it was an easy and quick read but with an ending that was definitely anti-climatic and disappointing.

I generally enjoy books by James Patterson. Although they're not great works of literature, they tend to be short, entertaining and suspenseful. But after reading Honeymoon (co-written by Howard Roughan), the only word that comes to mind is lame.
Nora Sinclair is a drop-dead gorgeous, high-end interior decorator. She is also suspected of being a serial killer--murdering men to whom she is either married or engaged. FBI Agent John O'Hara goes undercover, representing an insurance agent. He claims that Sinclair's latest victim left her the beneficiary of a million dollar insurance policy. But in the course of trying to get Sinclair to break, the two end up becoming more involved than either of them expected. Will O'Hara become Sinclair's subsequent victim?
Unlike Patterson's Alex Cross series, Honeymoon doesn't have much going for it. The plot is pretty lame, and the sub-plot was confusing. There wasn't a single character that I cared about or that the reader could grow to like (except for maybe a few of the victims). I also had to laugh in that my edition contains a reading group guide of discusion questions! That in itself was pretty laughable. The only reason that I gave it two stars is that there were a few surprises at the end that were somewhat redeeming.
So for Patterson, I think I'll stick to Alex Cross or his Women's Murder Club mysteries.

Hailed as the 2005 International Thriller of the Year, Honeymoon is a quick, fast paced read that I would love to say will keep you on the edge of your seat. However, for me, it did not. While I was able to read this book in one sitting, it held very little mystery for me. Nora Sinclair is a selfish, conniving, money hungry grey widow with nothing more to do with her life but have sex with rich men and then kill them off as she steals their offshore money and puts it in her own account. All this is revealed within the very first couple of pages.
As the story goes along we are introduced to an insurance agent who is actually an undercover FBI agent named O'Hara. I really like O'Hara at very first but then he got greedy and did something that really just pissed me off. But I won't get into that because it will spoil the book for others. Throughout the book, there are mysterious people trying to figure out Nora Sinclair (we aren't told who these people are until the end of the story but I had it figured out long before then). While the book doesn't hold much mystery, it is well written in that same Patterson way we have all come to know and love.
I guess my problem with this book and that I like a mystery that I don't know who the killer is until the very end. This book I knew the killer as soon as it started. I've read a lot of James Patterson novels and am a big fan of his Alex Cross series, however, I didn't experience that same feeling with Honeymoon. All in all, it was a big let down for a book that was so hyped.
