Killing Floor
6 journalers for this copy...
Welcome to BookCrossing and thanks for being a part of World Book Night 2011, the largest book giveaway in history. 1,000,000 specially printed copies of 25 different books changed hands on March 5th 2011 and began their journey from reader to reader. This book is one of them. World Book Night has joined with BookCrossing to help track these books as they travel. You can be a part of that journey by making a comment in the book's journal here on BookCrossing. Your journal entry can say how you got the book, what you thought of it, your plans for it or whatever else you might like to add.
On BookCrossing you may choose to remain anonymous or join (it's free). If you join, you’ll be alerted by e-mail each time someone makes another journal entry for this specific copy of this book (other copies of the book are travelling with their own ID number. Every copy of every book has a unique ID). It’s all confidential (you’re known only by your screen name and no one is ever given your e-mail address) and spam-free.
Thanks in advance for being part of World Book Night and BookCrossing. And happy reading and sharing.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
Read and release!
'THE KILLING FLOOR' is a dynamic, intricate thriller which literally keeps you turning the pages. The character of Jack Reacher is very strong; deceptively simply written and wholly engaging.

I am sending this to Bradgirl as part of a swap. I hope you enjoy reading this World book night story.
If you aren't familiar with Bookcrossing, take a few minutes to check out this very cool site. Bookcrossers LOVE books, and more than anything, they love to read books and then set them free for other people to find and enjoy. I would love it if you would leave a journal entry -- you can say where you found the book or how you liked it when you read it.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:
I have been sent another copy for the ABC International Roundabout I entered and I have a Thriller Bookbox with me to send out soon, so I thought I'd get this copy on it's way again. Its now in the bookbox and will be posted next week to HerbertLoopy.
Funnily enough both copies of the book were originally set on their way by KiwiinEngland
Fits in with pinkoeria's E-less challenge too.
Here's what I thought of it:
Margrave is a no-account little town in Georgia. Jack Reacher jumps off a bus and walks fourteen miles in the rain, just passing through. An arbitrary decision, a tribute to a guitar player who died there decades before. But Margrave has just had its first homicide in thirty years.....& Reacher is the only stranger in town - needless to say the murder is pinned on him!
But as those of us who've met Reacher before know they picked the wrong guy to take the fall...
This is the first book in the Reacher series but the third that I've read. Like the others it's a cracking read & only differs from the other two in that it's written in the first person rather than the third.

Never tried a Lee Childs book before but it was the perfect holiday read and since coming back I've re-acquainted myself with the genre and dusted down some other thrillers on my bookshelf and re-read them...
