Dead Anyway by Chris Knopf
3.0
Arthur Cathcart comes home to find a strange man sitting in the living room. He has a gun on his wife. He hands Arthur’s wife a slip of paper and asks her to write something on it. After she hands the paper back, the man shots both Arthur and his wife in the heads. Arthur wakes up in the hospital. He formulates a plan to fake his own death and go after the man responsible for shooting him.
I thought this book was intriguing. It was on the gritty side, which I did like. Of course, all of the actions that Arthur took to get revenge were not uncalled for. This was a fast paced book and I liked Arthur and his ingenuity however, my problem was that I found most of the other characters boring. So even though I flew through this book, on the other hand it made it seem like the book was slow. After a while, I did skim through some of it to get to the last third of the book to see how the ending went. The ending was alright.
