Great choices Joel. I love SPEED too - and good to see UNDERTOW mentioned, I reviewed it a while back (on my 'gay interest' label). Also good to see the love for WOMAN'S WORLD (ditto reviewed - Clifton label), THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR gets better each time I see it.
ReplyDeleteIts so hard sometimes to choose just one title ! but as I replied below, great choices. Thanks.
DeleteHave you ever read the source novel, Six Days of the Condor? I just read it this year and couldn't put it down, breezed through it in a day
