Daughters of Eve

Rating:
Summary: This was a horrible book!
Review: I had to do a book report and I picked this book because I thought it would be about murder or something. I was greatly disappointed by the entire story. The characters were well written but that was about it for this novel. The feminism was messed up and taken too far. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. I only finished the book because I had to do a 75 point book report on it.

Summary: This book is terrible
Review: I was very dissapointed when I read this book because I have loved all of the other books Lois Duncan has written. The plot is all about getting revenge and it puts down women so much that it really seems out dated.

Summary: mismarketed masterpiece
Review: My high school students recommended this book to me. I expected a typical shallow teen thriller--what I got was some reality that was a lot scarier than fiction. The story is top heavy with exposition and character development--more dialog than action, so the book should not be classified as mystery or thriller. This is a drama. I would redesign the book cover to reflect this. I admire Lois Duncan's ability to relate a story of human nature in an ultimately objective and neutral manner. It is her objectivity and neutrality that makes this book scary. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who considers herself a feminist.

Summary: It was o.k.
Review: This was the first Lois Duncan book Iread,and I have to say it was o.k.,I mean she could of done better.There where too many characters and the ending was alittle disapointing.But besides that, I recomend the book to a teenager rather than a adult.(not as thrilling as expected by the cover of the book).

Rating:
Summary: Lois Duncan has written better books!
Review: The ending was bad and there was no thriller or scare in the book. I hated how they put down women in that book. I mean please, Lois could have done so much better! There was also no climax it seemed.

Summary: Slightly disappointed
Review: I have been a long time fan of Lois Duncan, reading her books over and over again. When I bought DOE I expected to be thrilled and hung in supense. I was dissapointed as the book took a while to build and when it did, it ended quickly.

Summary: Not Duncan's best, not her worst
Review: Daughters of Eve is a story about a club of girls who are encouraged by their faculty sponser to hurt all the men that hurt them. Under her tutalage they destroy a science lab and shave a boy's head. Other events in the novel include an overdose and a girl murdering her father. I think the teacher was crazy and took the girls down with her. Read it once, let it freak out, then pick up another one of Lois' book, a better one.

Rating:
Summary: ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE EVER READ

Summary: An Adequete Book
Review: This bok made me think about the way men treat theere women. I am a little offended by the way she made her point. She made it seem as though all men mistreat women. I know however, that this is certainly not the case. As far as that character of Irene Stark goes, she turned Daughters of Eve into a club about getting revenge on men which was not the piont of the club. When the gym teacher put out the money the girls raised for new basketballs or whatever for a boys team, I did think that was unfare. The girls should have beeen able to use it in there own way. And Jane's father should marry Irene Stark because they are both completely insane. Her father was too demandind and Irene thought all men were evil. Dave was good. He didn't mean to make Anne pregnant. He just did. Overall though, I thought the book was rather boring as there was no climax at all. I thought that when they took Peter in the woods, they would kill him. Shaving his head was stupid. She should have put in something more dramatic to make it more interesting. It was very uneventful. Irene was a complete idiot. Lois, you have done better.
