Mini Review: I Will Find You by Harlan Coben

3.5****
An entertaining, if somewhat formulaic read. If you've read a few Harlan Coben books, you probably know what I man. The books blur together, in terms of plot and characters, but they do tend to be pretty gripping all the same. I'm not complaining, nor do I want to sound dismissive. I was looking for something fast-paced, engaging and not difficult or stressful with which to spend a few hours, and that's exactly what I got. The story centers around a wrongfully convicted man, who finds out that the son he supposedly killed, may be alive. Coben's books often feature fathers with lost children, and though this is a little predictable, it's a theme that tends to emotionally resonate and makes you root for the protagonist. I would not be surprised if, I Will Find You, gets it's own Netflix adaptation, as so many other books by this author have. Overall, a satisfying read and one I would recommend, if you are looking for some not-too-stressful thrills.
