I don’t think I had realized how long Myron’s books have been happening. 30 years! No wonder Myron is talking about how old they were getting. This book was a fun mystery, but a little more predictable than usual. Still a very fun easy read.

Harlan Cohen continues to deliver knockout after knockout in this series. This installment will keep you on the edge of your seat as you try to keep up with the twist all the while you are barreling toward an ending you won't see coming. Highly recommend you get your hands on this book.

I love this series! It’s another well written book.
It’s full of surprises and with an ending I didn’t see coming. It will certainly keep you on the edge of your seat. I couldn’t put it down!
Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for the early copy

I was thoroughly intrigued by Harlan Coben's "Think Twice", the latest installment in the gripping Myron Bolitar series. The mystery surrounding the discovery of Greg Downing's DNA at a recent crime scene had me hooked from the start. With the FBI on his tail, Myron, accompanied by his resourceful friend Win Lockwood, delves into the perplexing case, questioning whether Downing faked his death or if foul play is at hand. Coben's conversational writing style and clever plot twists kept me engaged, while the humorous dialogue added a delightful touch to the murder and mayhem. The cast of characters, including Myron's eccentric parents and other familiar faces, added depth to the story. Whether you're a longtime Coben fan or new to the series, "Think Twice" is a must-read standalone that will leave you guessing until the very end. A big thank you to Grand Central Publishing and Novel Suspects Insiders for providing me with an advance copy of this riveting novel.

The highly anticipated 12th book in the Myron Bolitar series... thank you to GCP and netgalley for the arc.

Myron's life long rival, father to his bio son, and client comes back from the dead to be accused of murder. Myron, Win, and Esperanza work together again to solve the case of the "Setup Serial Killer".

I was so excited to read this one, just as I am to read all of Harlan Cobn's books, but this was not the page turner I was hoping for. Parts kept me wanting more but overall I was let down with how the book ended. I am curious if there will be a book 13 or not.

Overall 3.5 stars rounded up.

I enjoy Harlan Coben books, but I will say I have not read any of the series with Myron Bolitar as of yet. I will definitely go back and read some now, but I am going into this without knowledge of these characters beforehand! With that being said, I felt like it could be read as a stand alone, I didn’t feel as I was missing a whole lot of backstory - Coben does a good job of giving you enough information to keep going.

This was a quick read. The pacing was overall decent, and I say that because there were a couple of times things felt a bit repetitive - enough worth nothing, but not enough that took away from my reading experience.

The ending doesn’t come out of left field and though I didn’t figure it out, it still made enough sense to me and left me as a satisfied reader.

Thank you to NetGalley, for the much-appreciated arc in return for an honest review.

Myron Bolitar is back in this 12th installment of this series. This time, Myron gets a surprise visit from the FBI asking about the whereabouts of his former client, Greg Downing. Myron is confused because Greg is dead, but the feds say Greg's DNA was just found at a double murder scene. How can that be? Of course, Myron, Win, and Esperanza are on the case.

This was yet another excellent entry in this series. Full of twists, turns, red herrings, and the sarcastic quips we all have come to know from this series. They help ease the tension in this book. The characters continue to grow as they've aged over the years, and it's like visiting with old friends. I definitely recommend!

My thanks to Grand Central Publishing, author Harlan Coben, and NetGalley for gifting me a digital copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

FBI agents announce that one of Myron Bolitar’s clients is suspected of a double homicide; in fact his dna was found at the scene. The only problem is that Myron gave the eulogy at the guy’s funeral, three years ago.

As Myron and his friend Win investigate, they’re led along a trail of misdirection and danger.

This reader loves the wisecracking and humor that Coben brings to his dark thrillers, especially Myron’s interactions with his parents. Highly recommended. #ThinkTwice #NetGalley #SaltMarshAuthors

Sports agent Myron Bolitar is beyond baffled. His nemesis, former basketball player and NBA coach as well as former client Greg Downing died three years ago. Then how was his DNA found at a recent double-murder scene? The FBI shows up at Myron's office seeking answers. Good guy Myron and his best friend Win Lockwood, who appears to have unlimited financial resources as well as questionable morals, are determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. Did Downing fake his death? Was the DNA planted at the scene? The case is even more complicated based on Myron's history with Greg, who married his ex, Emily. After a pre-wedding tryst, Myron fathered Emily's son Jeremy, who had always regarded Greg as his real father, even after knowing the truth about his biological father. A cast of colorful characters help Myron figure out this strange and murderous puzzle which gets more complicated as other murders take place.

Think Twice is the 12th book in Harlan Coben's popular Myron Bolitar series but it can be read as a standalone. Coben has an enjoyable, conversational writing style. This story has intriguing plot twists with humorous dialogue woven in, balancing all the murder and mayhem. In addition to Myron and Win, the secondary characters are wonderful. Fans of Coben’s other books will be happy to welcome them back including Myron's delightful parents Ellen and Allen, who left New Jersey and now live in a retirement community in Boca Raton and have started to play pickleball. If you're a Coben fan, it's probably already on your list. You won't be disappointed.

Many thanks to Grand Central Publishing and Novel Suspects Insiders for providing an advance copy.

Rated 4.25 stars.

You will not want to put down Think Twice by Harlan Coben. The winning combination of Myron and Win along with the suspense, drama, and heartache make this one of Coben's best.

Myron Bolitar is back! While I did enjoy getting to know Win a bit, I was thrilled to see Myron return.

Fun story, classic Harlen suspense and mystery with a dozen little surprises at the end.

If you’re a fan of the Myron Bolitar series, you will be thrilled!

Think Twice by Harlan Coben is book 12 in the Myron Bolitar series. Unbeknownst to me, it is the latest a book in a very long series of books. But that wasn’t a problem, it held up well as a stand-alone. The problem now is that I enjoyed it so much, I now have to go back and purchase all the other 11 books in the series!!! It was a fast-paced murder mystery that had more twists and turns than a corkscrew. It kept me in suspense and guessing who the murderer was until the very end. Harlan has a style of writing that pulls you into the story and carries you away. The characters are relatable and the plot credible. I had a hard time putting this book down.

Thank you Netgalley and Grand Central publishing for the ARC!

This book had me hooked from the first page. However it fell flat to me at about 50% and found myself not picking it up as much. The last 10% of the book had me hooked and had plot twist I did not see coming.

Thanks to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Three years ago Myron gave the eulogy at the funeral of his client (and lifelong rival) Greg Downing. However evidence points that Greg is alive and may have committed a double murder.

Myron and Win get to work solving the mystery. Lots of old characters are back in Think Twice and it took me a minute to remember some details but I have forgotten a lot over the almost twenty years of reading Myron Bolitar books.

Lot's going on to keep the reader guessing.

Let me just reveal now that this will be a very biased review.

Think Twice is the 12th book in the Myron Bolitar series, which I happens to be my all time favorite series ever!!!
After Eight long years of waiting(please Harlan don’t make the big fans wait another eight years) we finally got another book in the series.
And when I seen I received a copy, I may have legit jumped for joy. So definitely biased.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ugh it’s so great. How I missed Myron, Win, Big Cindi, Esperanza and of course Myron’s parents. It was everything I wished for, well maybe if it was way longer and didn’t go way too quick.

For all the huge Myron fans out there you will not be disappointed! It’s wonderful just like the rest of the series.
I’m so hoping Harlan is already working on the next Myron book.

I want to give a huge thanks to NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing a chance to read an advance copy of Think Twice in exchange for an honest review.

This review was originally posted on Books of My Heart


Review copy was received from NetGalley. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

I've read the Myron Bolitar series for quite awhile. It's been three years since the previous book and maybe ten years since I read the first 10 books in the series. I have read the Mickey Bolitar series so I stayed up to date. There's more of the quirky and absurd in Think Twice than I remember from earlier books. All the personal relationships except maybe Win are weird.

Myron and Win are getting older, but are still close, but don't work quite as closely together. Although Win has a bead on everything all the time, we are mostly getting our point of view from Myron.

There's been a murder and the DNA found is one of Myron's clients who he thought was dead. He's also the man who married Myron's first love. Myron seeks to find out what happened and if Greg is still alive somehow. The story brings back a lot of details and ties into some previous stories. I guess Myron gets involved because of who he is but he shouldn't.

There are plenty of dicey situations for Myron. He sustains some injuries. But he does solve all the murders in the end along with Win.

Another adrenaline-filled read full of quick wit and told at a lightning pace. I was hooked from the first chapter. This is book #12 in the Myron Bolitar series, but you don't necessarily have to have read the others to appreciate the story. There are a LOT of characters, so be warned about that. I felt like I needed sticky notes to keep up with who was who. Switching between first, second, and third person also gave me a little whiplash, but it was used with purpose.

This is book 12 in the Myron Bolitar series and I was so happy to invited back into this world. I love the characters in this series (and not just our main characters Myron and Win who are fabulous), but the supporting characters are also fabulous and all of my favorites were present in this one. I will admit I haven’t read every book in this series (I found it late and am still catching up) but the story still worked for me. Myron is surprised when the FBI stops by demanding to know where his old friend Greg is. Myron is particularly surprised because Greg died years ago. But the more Myron and Greg dig into the murder deceased Greg is suspected of the more they realize how much they didn’t know. In addition to a serial killer who kills and frames someone else with motive (pretty scary concept of a serial killer if I’m honest) there is a lot of family drama as well but in a really good way. I was so happy to see Myron and Jeremy actually talking and spending a bit of time together, even if it was just to try to keep Jeremy’s father out of jail.

It’s hard to believe that Harlen Coben began writing the Myron Bolitar thriller series twenty nine years ago! This newest installment is the twelfth in the series and once again we find sports agent/lawyer Myron teamed up with Win Lockwood, the financial wizard who handles the investments of Myron’s clients.

As the story opens, we witness a murder taking place after which two FBI agents come calling on Myron. Though he thinks they’re there to discuss the murder, Myron soon finds out their real motive when they question him about his former client, famed basketball coach Greg Downing who died three years ago. Or did he? And how could Greg be tied into the mysterious murders that have taken place over the last few years?

Harlan Coben has definitely maintained his masterful ability to deliver engaging thrillers, filled with characters that are smart, witty and keep the reader wanting more. Though part of a series, this can easily be read and enjoyed as a standalone book.

Thank you NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing for proving me with an advanced digital copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

I was introduced to the wonderful and fun world of Harlan Coben’s work via reading Stephen King’s The Outsider shortly after it was published. So, at this point I’ve read (and adored the Myron Bolitar series) and a bunch of standalones. It’s gotten to the point where any new book of his is an auto-read for me.

I was so excited ❤️ to get a copy of Think Twice on May 3 and began reading it immediately (much to the dismay of another book I was reading at the same time) and was pulled into the story immediately - laughing from Myron’s phone call with his parents and then reading it out loud to my husband (I have a, maybe weird, habit of how if I read something that works for me I read it aloud to whoever in my family is around at the time to appreciate it), to Win being so perfectly Win.

I read this happily - it had my attention from beginning to end. Think Twice is a story absolutely worthy of Myron and Win.
