A review by thomasroche
361 by Donald E. Westlake

3.0

Westlake is a great writer, but this one is sort of a grim, plodding read. 361 is exceptionally well written but is just sort of harsh and depressing, without the amorality that makes the Parker books so much fun to read.

I enjoyed Westlake's [b:Somebody Owes Me Money|2648032|Somebody Owes Me Money (Hard Case Crime #44)|Donald E. Westlake|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1212432903s/2648032.jpg|2672772] -- also from Hard Case Crime -- much more; it's lighter and has more personality to it. This one is still a very good novel, but not as much fun and I don't think I'd ever re-read it.
