Assess Containing Books The Informationist (Vanessa Michael Munroe #1)

I picked this one up for several reasons. First, I love the title and the picture it evokes. An Informationist, someone who deals in information. In this case this person is one Vanessa "Michael" Munroe,. That's the second reason I picked up the book. Reviews depicted Vanessa/Michael as one strong female,a character trait I like in my reading. Third reason; reviews called it a gripping, fast paced, high octane thriller. And lastly, I picked it up as it is debut fiction, always a treat for me. So



The translation ruined this for me *sigh*

Um...Ridiculous.And sometimes that can be a good thing when it comes to action-thrillers, as long as they don't take themselves too seriously. They know their place, know that they are over-the-top and completely removed from real life, so they play it up and make it big, and have some fun. But in the case of The Informationist...It was too long, way over-written, and tried too hard to make the main character of Vanessa Michael Munroe, damaged and dark, leaving her annoying and emotionless with

Kismet, from the Turkish qisma, or fate. I buy too many books to keep track of where they come from or how I heard about them or even what attracted me to them.

Kinda. My childhood cult was a bunch of wacky architects who worship Frank Lloyd Wright. Better deal? Maybe. Anyway, I figured, OK definitely

Shes a tool. A weapon. Like Jason Bourne or James Bond. Able to blend into her surroundings. She speaks 22 languages, and shes damn near deadly with a knife. And shes androgynous. Shes Vanessa Michael Munroe. Or Michael for short.Revenge might as well be her middle name, though. She reminded me of Lisbeth Salander with the way rage completely consumed her. And yet she still managed to show some heart, or at least her slightly abbreviated version of it. Emotions seemed to fill her, consume her,

Honestly, I'm only halfway through this but I have absolutely no idea why this book is rated so highly everywhere. Not to be "that guy" here but did anyone else READ the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo?? First of all, the main character Michael (who is actually a woman named Vanessa) is such an almost painfully blatant poor-man's version of Lisbeth Salander that it's almost ridiculous. HOW IS NO ONE CALLING THIS OUT?? And ok, not that every intelligent, super gifted, socially inept main female
