Customer Reviews
Good but not Great
The Body Brokers is fast-paced and entertaining, with a solid plot and brutal twists and turns. There were some misses with plot holes and continuity, and it felt like the editing was not as in-depth as it could have been.
For me, a 3.5 rounded down. I probably wouldn’t have picked up this book if Mark Cuban, the author’s brother, hadn’t recommended it on his social media. The Author’s real-life work and history shine through in the plot.
If you’re the type to focus on details and notice every little error, this probably isn’t the book for you. But if you’re looking for a breakneck dive into the world of drugs and drug treatment facilities, it’s an enjoyable way to pass a few hours.
