NO MIDDLE NAME
Lee Child. NO MIDDLE NAME: The Complete Collected Jack Reacher Short Stories. Delacorte, 2017.
The very best way to read Reacher. Because you can stop and pause after forty pages or so, and not sacrifice a whole weekend at once. Love the stories of his youth too, and of his brother Joe.
