I used to read Jack Reacher thrillers. Now I see I have missed the latest two in a row. I think I overdosed on him back when he was shilling for the Democrats in denouncing the campaign in Iraq.
I’d finally realized that Jack was just another Leftist messenger from New York, a murderous one for the violence-freaks, but in the end a bore with a toothbrush who was so emotionally stunted that he couldn’t abide a serious relationship with anyone.
THE TEXAS SCRIBBLER 
I am absolutely with you on “emotionally stunted”, but how come he’s a leftist?
What’s true is that Mr Child became a darling of all female readers, and this says something. What it is, I can’t figure yet.
New York is leftist heaven, Snoop, and that’s where Child lives and publishes. Reacher is that rare thing among ex-soldiers: anti-war, even when it comes to the Islamo-fascists.
Not all female readers like him, just the ones who find elusive child-men who can’t stay out of trouble or commit themselves to anything for long irresistable.
