"Well, well, well, as I live and breathe. Hester Crimstein in my little station."Whether you are stumbling across this review in search of a new stand-alone thriller or as a long term fan of the author, you are equal parts welcome here. Friends, The Boy from the Woods is Harlan Coben at his best, and let me tell you why. Readers of Stephen King claim their loyalty as a fan base in part because he has an uncanny way of providing layers to his work. Sure, you can jump right in to most of his ficti...
Famed defense attorney Hester Crimstein becomes concerned when her grandson reaches out to her about a missing classmate. Naomi Pine has disappeared and no one seems to be looking for her. Hester then goes to a man named Wilde for help who has an extraordinary story of his own. Over thirty years ago, he was found in the woods near her home, apparently living there for quite some time. He was only about six or seven years old and didn’t remember his name or how he got there but had established a
Harlan Coben has got his has got his mojo back!! i devoured The Boy In The Woods in quick time for me, Two missing Teenagers a Dirty Politician & secrets that know one wants revealed.I absolutely loved this book it was a page turning thriller that kept you on your toes right the way from beginning to end, it was fast paced well written & loved all the characters the book starts of in North New Jersey 18th April 1986 where a wild boy was found fending & living by himself in the Rampano Mountains
Wilde was living wild in the woods (get it?) thirty years ago. No one, including him, knew his name, his exact age, where he came from, his parents’ names, were or how long he had been surviving alone in the woods. He has vague memories, foggy nightmares, but even as an adult all he remembers is scavenging to survive and playing with his friend, Adam.He's an adult now, but still more comfortable being on his own, living in the woods and keeping even those who love him at arm’s length. Raised in
“Life isn’t lived in the black and white, Wilde. People like to think so nowadays. All the online outrage, things are either all good or all bad. But life is lived in the gray. Life is lived in the nuances.” Action-wise, this book was as excellent as I have come to expect from Harlan Coben. Lots was going on at all times. Several subplots overlapped and came together, which made it so that the pacing never lagged. But where this differed from Coben's most recent book Run Away and the now almo
This is whirlwind, complex, action-packed and definitely wilder crazy train ride that I expected to take a full tour! Including: Political scandal, secret tapes, school bullying, disappearing teenager, a man’s stunning story who has been found in the woods, fighting to gather the pieces of his past.This seems like a complex mix and Mr, Coben juggling too many balls at the same time but thankfully he doesn’t drop any of them and we get our answers for each detailed mysterious factors to finish th...
Yuck. I’m a Harlan Coben fan, but nothing about this book appealed to me. Not the story, not the characters, not the underlying message, nothing. Thank goodness it was a quick read...
4.5 stars.With Harlan Coben's new book, The Boy from the Woods , the master delivers another twisty thriller full of secrets!Thirty years ago a young boy was found living in the woods. It appeared he had been there for some time, but apart from some emotional trauma stemming from memories he can’t parse together, he was mostly fine. He befriended a boy who lived nearby, and he tended to break into people's houses to steal food, even watch television.Now an adult who goes by the name Wilde, he...
The Boy From the Woods by Harlan CobenFiction. Shown as thriller but I’m going to say mystery. Thriller to me is “edge of your seat reading”. While this was really good, it wasn’t worrying or fully suspense filled. Compelling, yes. A few twists and likable characters. Ultimately an engaging read.I received a copy of this book from the the publisher.
