I’ve had always been a little  fan of the show, Monk, so I decided to try out one of the books, that fall under that series as well. Mr. Monk in Trouble is a pretty good book, but the ending wasn’t what I thought it would be. Mr. Monk arrives in Trouble, California, which is an old mining town, to investigate a murder for Captain Stotlemyers. But, the trip soon goes down hill, for the town is not up to Mr. Monk’s “standards”. Throughout the book Mr. Monk gets a few clues here and there, and I was excepting a big finial at the end of the book, but instead I got about a 10 word closing, no exciting capture, and not even a suprise about who did it. By the middle of the book, I guess who the murder was just by his/her actions. Even after I figured it out, I decided to keep on reading, for I doubt that I was actually right. But, as the conculsion and final pages came around, there was no sudden twist, or suprise. Nothing, except what I predicted would happen. So it turned out to be quite a boring ending, in my sense. I would rate it a 8 out of 10.
