Fiction Book Club Money To Burn by James Zagel Buy book: $6.29
"A darkly hilarious tale of a federal judge who sets out to rob the Federal Reserve Bank in Chicago. . . . The story is all the more delicious because first-time novelist Zagel is himself a U.S. District Court judge."--"The Washington Post Book World."
Don't confuse me with the other Marilyn that just posted. I, personally, did not find this book of any interest and didn't read anything beyond the frist paragraph or so from day 1.
Love it! I usually love stories involving a con, anything to do with Money! I like the Massachusetts tie in, too because I live there. I'm looking forward to reading more...
Well, as of Tuesday, I was ready to give up on this one, but after today's installment, I felt there was stronger surge of character development concerning the judge and now, I'm now slightly intrigued...
No on this one. Just not my style, though I do know a few folks that are much more into "heist" stories. I can't read them unless I have absolutely no other option.
This isn't something I would pick at the library, but after reading the 5 installments, I probably will look for it. It certainly was an easy read and although not my style, I became interested in his method to rob the treasury.
