Rating:  Summary: The Cradle Will Fall Review: The book that i thought was the most intresting was the book called the Cradle Will Fall. It had lot of suspense and it dosen't make you think about who the killer is alot because it practally tells you in that beginning if the book. The charters that i really liked were: Richard and Molly. They both care about Katie alot and want her to be safe. Vangie was one of the people that died in the book and she seemea really sweet. Edna and Dr. Salem were killed too and they were really nice. Dr. Higley was a really weird person and i really didnt like him. i think that you would likethis book.
Rating:  Summary: Pure Genious- Pure MACABRE! Review: The CRADLE WILL FALL by MARY CLARK is one of the best books i read in a long time. The original storyline gives it a great reason to read it. This is not like typical serial killer books! its better... its crazier. i had a doctor's appointment the next day and i felt like canceling it. this book will make you fear your doctor!
Rating:  Summary: CHILLING! Review: THE CRADLE WILL FALL IS THE THIRD MARY HIGGINS CLARK BOOK THAT I HAVE READ(THE OTHER TWO WERE MOONLIGHT BECOMES YOU AND YOU BELONG TO ME). THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE. IT IS VERY SUSPENSEFUL AND THE KILLER IN MY OPINION IS ONE OF THE MOST PSYCHOTIC VILLIANS I HAVE EVER READ IN A BOOK! THIS BOOK IS REALLY GREAT. I TOTALLY RECOMMENED IT IF YOU WANT A VERY SUSPENSEFUL BOOK TO READ.
Rating:  Summary: Not her best Review: The Cradle Will Fall, by Mary Higgins Clark. I must tell you that I am disappointed by this book. The story, palpable at many edges and creative in the manner in which one character is painted in a bad light, but it fails to really leave you grinding your teeth for more. The Authors fashion is to set up intertwined chapters. Get you to a point where you are just about to guess what is next and then you read what really is next, but across the town or from another pov. That failed in this book. You just assumed what would happen. I dare not tell MHC how to write because I so enjoy her book, but a few parts were just too easy. So easy that the cliff-hanger feel died on me. The young man, thief, who steals the doctors bag. Too convenient. Take out this character and his chapters. He ruined it. Also, the bad, bad Doctor. If he is so cunning and cold, he would not have left the evidence in his trunk for so long. I think this story sacrificed some hard details and symbolism for a fast past edge. Not very fast but enough. All in all, this an okay read, but not her best.
Rating:  Summary: Be prepared to stay up all night with this one! Review: The last 150 pages of this book are impossible to
put down. I finished The Cradle Will Fall at 2:30am knowing I had to go to work the next day. Mary Higgins Clark's ability to make you feel as though
you know the characters, and her web of suspense
and intrigue make her one of my all time favorite
authors.
Rating:  Summary: A suspenseful thriller that will keep you hooked!! Review: The Mary Higgins Clark novel, "The Cradle Will Fall", is the suspenseful murder mystery about the death of a pregnant woman and the events that surround it. The book is about a brilliant O.G.B.Y.N. that has taken his proffesion to the next level, and will stop at nothing to do it; he will even go as far as murder. He somehow has devised a way to to take women who can't concieve, and make them pregnant. But when people start finding out about it, people start dying. Another character in the book is a lawyer that had been in an accident, and when in her room sees a man put a dead woman in his trunk. She can't remember whether it was a dream or reality but Dr. Highley(O.G.B.Y.N.) won't take any chances. We thought this book was your basic mystery thriller, a bit hokey in the sense that all the events somehow coincidentally fit together too easily. There weren't as many twists or turns as we thought there were going to be. Still, we thought this was fun, enjoyable reading. Once you started, it was hard to stop just because it was a fun book. All and all we gave this book 4 out of 5 stars. We would definetly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys mystery thrillers, or Mary Higgins Clark.
Rating:  Summary: This was a very good book. Review: There is a lesson in this book and that is that people may seem nice and caring but underneath they're a person completely different. It's like the saying never judge a book by its cover. The thing I liked best about this book was that it was very suspenseful. I love books like that because they make me want to read more. The author was also very descriptive in her writing. She described everything so very carefully. The book could have been better if the author had made the story sound more realistic. The story doesn't sound as if it could actually happen. I cannot identify with this story because it is about something that I could never imagine happening to me or any other woman. It's about a guy who impregnates women with babies from abortions. I just could not imagine that happening to me. My favorite character was Katie DeMaio because she never gave up. When she was about to die, she wouldn't let herself. She hung on and it worked. She also was very independent. When she made a decision, she didn't ch
Rating:  Summary: Outstanding! Review: This being probably the best book I have read, it was a sensational thriller-mystery combo with all the horror added in. This book was the best Higgins Clark book I have read. It throws a lot of twists at you, and at the end, all the evidence comes in and makes sense, unlike some mystery novels I have read. The author has used so much realism in this novel, which makes it so outstanding. This book you could read again and again and each time you would catch something new that leads you to the answers. Its definately a good one!
Rating:  Summary: COOL COOL COOL COOL! IT WAS SO COOL! Review: This book is absolute, true, pure, perfect, terrifying, spectacular, GENIUS!!! I would not recommend it to anyone who has heart problems
