Annie's Rainbow

Summary: No pot of gold at the end of this rainbow
Review: Annie and her best friend Jane just graduated from college and leaving to open their own coffee and art business. The day before they leave there's a bank robbery and the money ended up in Annie's car unknown to everyone. Except Annie... Should she keep it or give it back.. Soon without the help of the money Annie makes a success of her business and becomes a millionaire in her own right. But her deep dark secret burdens her everyday life. There's an insurance investigator that is convinced Annie is guilty and dogs her for many years. Read this book to find out what she does. If you like Ms. Michaels book, then I suggest reading: The Guest List (see my review) and Finders keepers (see my review)

Summary: Wonderful fast-paced read!
Review: I read this book in one sitting. I loved it! I liked the interaction and the dediction between the old and the young, between friends and family.It also gave me pause for thought. What would I do if I found a bag of money. I don't know. I found this to be a wonderful story as all Fern Michaels' novels are.

Review: This is my first F.M. novel and I really was disappointed with it. The main character Annie didn't have any reason to keep money stolen from a bank. Especially after her business took off so quickly. Putting her "best friends" Jane and Elmo through such trama as suspects having the stolen money for such a long time is way too selfish for me. Annie made tons of money, so why keep the money at someone elses peace of mind? I also thought Annie was portrayed as more of a business shrew than a savvey one. I also found it unreal after a one night stand with her coffee supplier, Parker to wait 11 years to get back with him? Even though Annie finally gave the bank its money with interest, ( 12yrs+ later) I don't find this woman anyone I'd care to call "friend". I'm going to try one more book of F.M's and try again. And then again there's always Elizabeth Lowell, Johanna Lindsay, Catherine Coulter and Virgina Henley to keep me in Romance Novels.

Summary: Not the best...
Review: This was my first Fern Michaels book after hearing people rave about her, and I don't know if this was just a bad one or if all of hers are like this, but ANNIE'S RAINBOW wasn't that great. Fern tries to make Annie an interesting character, but I really didn't care what happened to her. Fern's writing is also a little offbeat. ANNIE'S RAINBOW did have a unique storyline. Don't go spend money on this one; borrow from a friend.

Summary: Another wonderful Fern Michaels book!
Review: This was such an interesting story I got caught up in it from the first page. What I like about this author's books are the characters because they seem so real. It's like I know them personally. This was one of those "think" books like Finders Keepers. I read it in one sitting and couldn't put it down. I think I would have acted just like Annie. That's what I mean about the characters being so real. This is an other keeper for my shelf.
