Description In Favor Of Books You've Been Warned
Kristin Burns has lived her life by the philosophy "Don't think, just shoot"--pictures, that is. Struggling to make ends meet, she works full-time as the nanny for the fabulously wealthy Turnbull family, looking after their two wonderful children and waiting for her glamorous life as a New York photographer to begin. When her photographs are considered by an elite Manhattan art gallery, it seems she might finally get the chance that will start her career.But Kristin has a major distraction: forbidden love. The man of her dreams is almost hers for keeps. Breathless with an inexhaustible passion and the excitement of being within reach of her goals, Kristen ignores all signs of catastrophe brewing.
Fear exists for a reason. And Kristin can only dismiss the warnings for so long. Searching desperately for the truth through the lens of her camera, she can only hope that it's not too late. This novel of psychological suspense is a stunning achievement for thriller master James Patterson, "one of the bestselling writers in history" New York Sun.

Oh. My. God. This book was so odd! It was unlike any other Patterson novel I have read. I think this is one of his books that you will either love or hate. Personally, I really liked it. The supernatural twist is definitely new for Patterson and I thought he handled it well. The only way I can even begin to describe it would be Twilight Zone meets Patterson.As usual, the chapters were short and sweet and always seemed to end with some sort of a cliffhanger. This made me want to continue readingKristin, an upcoming photographer and nanny, is a woman that has endured tragedy in her life and so it's no wonder that she's a psychotic; Her father committed suicide when she was little, her pediatrician molested her when she was pre-teen and no one believed her until another teenager spoke out, she gave birth to a son and he died in her arms and now she keeps having the same reoccurring nightmare and her photos keep showing images that appear "ghost-like" and now she's seeing people who from
I was very disappointed with this book. Poorly written and hard to follow. Seems like his Alex Cross and Woman's murder club series are the only good books he writes anymore.
The worst book he has written. Don't waste your time unless you have nothing else to do. Very disappointed
Minor Spoilers:I know people are going to look at my three-star rating and go "What on Earth was he thinking?! This book was terrible!" Oh, well. :) This book follows the story of Kristen Burns, an aspiring photographer who is, in reality, a nanny who is having an affair with the children's husband. What starts out as a dream spirals into a convoluted story of Kristen having macabre dreams and meeting up with people who should be long deceased. So really, it's nothing like the dust jacket says.
I'm a big Patterson fan. I've liked everything of his that I've read so far with the exception of 'The Lake House' and it appears that this will have to be one of those books that I didn't really like all that much. 'You've Been Warned' follows the actions of selfish photographer/nanny Kristin Burns as she has an affair with the father of the children she takes care of. Soon things start to unravel as strange things happen and she starts hearing this tune she can't get out of her head. She also
