Mystic River

I just finished this book and I would give it 4 ****. I don't want to give to much away but it is a very good book and I can't wait to watch the movie now and see how it follows the book. I am going to have to read more by Dennis Lehane because he is the one who wrote Shutter Island and so foar I love both of these books. This book is about Three childhood friends, Dave Boyle, Sean Devine, and Jimmy Marcus who were friends but then one day a car pulls up and ends up taking one of the boys and left the other two and something terrible happened something that ended their friendship and changed all three boys forever. Now years later murder has tied their lives together again.... This was taken from the back of the book. It really didn't pick up until towards the end and it was an okay ending but not what I was expecting. This book is a definitley read but beware if you do read it there's a lot of bad language in it but overall i liked it.
