Rating:  Summary: You Just Can't Put It Down!!!! Review: For all the D.S. lovers: Do not miss the oportunity of reading this book!!! I started reading it on one day, and every time I had to leave it to go to work I felt terrible and spent the rest of the day thinking about what was going on with Grace, and wishing I could be back and reading it. Danielle makes you feel all the pain and dispair Grace feels, the terror.... And at the end, it makes you hate those people who lie, and take advantage of public people to make money with the tabloids. It's really a lesson of life, more than any other book I've read, not to give up life, inspite of all the obstacles and tests life puts you through.
Rating:  Summary: very wonderful book, with an interesting story... Review: This book was very good, and it probably deserved more stars that five. This story is about a girl named grace who was molested by her father while her mother was very sick, for many years. Then when her father trys to rape her on the night of her mothers funeral, she gets very scared and shoots him. She is then sent to prison for murder, and has to deal with all this other hard things, and then even after out of prison, she still has to deal with her slimeball probation officer, and the troubles with her work. She finally meets the right man, and settles down and has a family. Then years later, she is confronted by her past, when all these horrible lies and photos of her come out, it almost destroys her. This is a very intense book , and i recommend it to any DS fan.
Rating:  Summary: Great book.... Review: I really enjoyed this book. It reminded me so much of my life. It seems like a lot of people who have bad lives, really do keep on having the bad things keep on happening to them, and the ones with the easy lives, have easy lives forever! I didn't really like the ending when she brought a gun to scare Marcus, the photographer, though!!! I thought that was completely out of nowhere and did not match with the character's "meek, sensitive, victim" personality. It also did not make sense because she should have known that Marcus could have even gone to the cops after she did that, and made herself look even WORSE.
Rating:  Summary: This book deserves more stars Review: This book deserves more then 5 stars I was so engrossed in this novel it was the second novel I had read by Danielle Steel the first being Secrets and I thought all of her novels were going to be light-hearted and beautiful people falling in love with equally beautiful people this book changed that image for me. Grace Adams had real problems she was in prison and was sexually abused for many years and despite of that she still found love and happiness with her husband Charles but then a series of scandalous events from her past resurface and Grace's happiness is almost shattered by those who want to destory what she has built for herself and the family she created with her husband. Danielle Steel outdid herself with this novel and because of this I have been a fan of hers for years.
Rating:  Summary: An extraordinary woman's story Review: "Malice", from Danielle Steel, is the third book I've read from this internationally best selling author. It is the story of a seventeen year old girl and a secret to horrible to share with anybody. Even at the night of her mom's funeral she was attacked, and that was not the first time it happened. She decided that night would be her last one, and later on she pays the price for being brave. Grace Adams is a true survivor, a beautiful and shy girl that captivates people wherever she goes. The only thing she cannot forget is her past and those terrible years she lived. She has to carry her past wherever she goes. I recommend this book; it was well written and tells a story that I will never forget.
Rating:  Summary: One Woman's Struggle to be Free... Review: I was impressed with the way Ms. Steel developed the character of Grace Adams. She was deep and real. I was a little bothered by what she went through and at times I winced and shook my head in pity. A sad tale about a young girl named Grace Adams who is abused savagely from when she was 13 until her mother's death when she turned 17. Four long years of abuse and the night of the funeral she is once again attacked brutally and then knows for certain it will never end. Doing the unthinkable, she ends her torture and finds herself on trial. Thinking things can't get worse, they do as she is convicted of murder and is sentenced to prison. Once a weak girl she becomes a strong woman in those years and wants to start her life over and she does. Taking a job in Chicago for a modeling agency Grace is thrown into the seedy world of drugs and backstabbing. Beautiful enough to be a model herself, Grace finds that men want her but she wants nothing to do with men. She can't, she has a terrible secret. After disaster in Chicago she moves to New York and takes a challenging job where she meets Charles Mackenzie, a New York lawyer. He wants nothing from her, just to be her friend, heal her wounds and listen to her. Can she trust him? He's an older man...reminds her of her horrible secret. Throwing caution to the wind she grasps love and embraces it. Years go by and she is happy with a husband and three children when he goes into politics and a tabloid digs up her past for all to see... Old enemies, her prison time, a man she saw once in Chicago has some revealing photos of her and Grace feels the pressure. Can Malice detroy what she worked so hard to heal and build? How can she and Charles get past this? Will he ever look at her the same way? A look into the stark reality of domestic abuse and how children are swept into it. Grace was such a strong character and she never gave up. I wanted to cry when she revealed the horrors she went through. Superb writing Ms. Steel, very intelligent reading...Tracy Talley~@
Rating:  Summary: How much more... Review: How much more can one person survive?? I don't think I could survive what this woman went through....It really makes you stop and think, and be grateful for what you have!
Rating:  Summary: Malice: keeps you interested Review: Malice, by Danielle Steel, was such an awesome book. It was recommended to me by one of my friends when I was taking a best sellers class, where all you do is read. I wasn't a big reader before hand, so this was definitely a good book to get me started. I kept turning the page to find out what was going to happen next because it was so interesting and unpredictable. The plot was basically about a girl who was abused by her dad when she was younger and her mother died when she was only 13. She ended up shooting her father while he was raping her, and gets convicted of murder. She spends time in prison, and has to start a whole new life when she is released. She goes through her new life trying to cover up her old one, and it is extremely difficult for her. The main points were backed up by a lot of detail, and I just felt like I was in the book. The characters were also well-developed and interesting. This book can be very graphic and disturbing, so I don't recommend it to those who don't like that. Overall though, this was an excellent book.
Rating:  Summary: I loved this book! I recommended it to everyone! Review: Malice is a book that took my breath away! I was stuck reading the book so much my husband said i was neglecting him. This book is about a girl that goes through so many trials in her life that you don't want to put the book down you want to know what will happen next! I felt so sorry for the many things that happened to her i wish that i could reach out to her. this book was so good that it made the story almost seem real. i would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a book and doesn't mind getting a little emotional. i guarantee you will love it!
