Review: a good book but not one of the best by judith krantz.

Summary: Offensive
Review: I'm not a great fan of Judith Krantz but bought this book anyway for a quarter at a thrift store. I'm glad I didn't pay more. As usual, Ms. Krantz works harder at trying to impress us with her knowledge of the glitzy jet set and fashion than she does at realistic dialogue. She has some good characters who have looks, intelligence, honor, and the potential to be really memorable but she destroys it everytime she has them open their mouth.

The worst part of this book was the sensuality. She outdid herself with graphic detail in the sexual scenes that were abusive and violent but skimmed over the tender moments between people who had real affection for each other. I won't waste another quarter.

Summary: Undoubtedly Krantz
Review: Well, it seems like Judith Krantz did it again. But this one takes us to the glittering world of fashion. I can say that this is not the best from her, although it's not intellectually reading, it's an enjoyable read. I hope that her next novel, "The Jewels of Tessa Kent", will be better. I can't wait. I hope that she won't fail us this time.
