Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by DeAnna
violets are blue. awesome book
I thought this book was amazing. I enjoyed it so so much it had a lot of detail and I love mystery books and this book made you want to keep reading more... I definitely think everyone should read this book if you enjoy mysteries.

Rated 3 of 5 of 5 by melace112
Enjoyable, but not like roses are red
This was great, but I am a little let down when I compare it to roses are red. This was a little gorey for me and also a bit tedious with detail. Just took too long for Alex to figure out who did it, especially since we have known the criminal since roses are red. Still liked it a lot and want to read more by patterson.

Rated 2 of 5 of 5 by Suzi
James Patterson is too straightforward. The book was dull but if your into the genre you may like it.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Shauna
I've read several James Patterson books, mostly Alex Cross ones. Violets are Blue is the creepiest one yet of them all! It was great, I couldn't put it down until it was done!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Andy Crome
This was the first book i read by James Patterson and now im on my 3rd. Violets are Blue is the best iv read so far though they are all good, especially Pop Goes the Weasel. Violets are blue is a great read and i promise you wont be able to put it down as its so exciting.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Dustin
