Best and Worst Books of 2016

     The best book I've read in 2016 would have to be Tell No One by Harlan Coben. David Beck witnessed his wife's kidnapping and murder. They were celebrating their marriage at Beck's lake, when she was killed. Years go by, and Beck still hasn't moved on from his wife. He believes her to be dead still, until he receives a suspicious email from someone. The email says things only his wife knew. It then tells him to log on to a website at a certain time, no earlier or later. He does so, and it takes him to a street camera, where his wife is standing in front of the camera, staring at it. He now believes she is alive, but is told to tell no one. He ignores this, telling the people he trusts about his findings. Beck has become hunted down, searching for his wife and being searched for.
   

     The worst book I've read in 2016 is Tinkers by Paul Harding. George is an old man dying, and is going over past events in his life. He reminisces his past growing up and his troubles with his father. It's very boring in my opinion and I didn't even finish the book, because I couldn't get through the boring stories of George's childhood. It had no plot, and was just trying to make you feel bad for George, who had troubles growing up. But don't we all? I don't want to read about an old man dying and stating his regrets, and how sad his life was. That's just down right depressing.
