Summary: Eh, not one of the best Kelly has ever picked
Review: This is the story of two sisters - Jennifer and Catherine Pegan. One is good and one is bad. Actually they are both neurotic if you ask me.
I grabbed this one becasue the other two books that I read from Reading with Ripa were great. This one was marginal at best. If it is between reading this and the zoning codes of your area, I would at least give the codes a chance.

Summary: SKIP THIS ONE!
Review: This one started out with a lot of promise, but then died a slow and painful death caused by a severe identity crisis. Is it a psychological thriller, is it a romantic thriller, is it a mystery? Who knows. The novel is written-well, from sentence to sentence, but as an organic whole, it just does not work at all. The characters are beyond wooden, the dialogue is terrible, it was painful just to finish. Stay away. This one has no redeeming qualities.

Summary: The Good Sister is whom?
Review: This was another Kelly Ripa book club choice and I felt that this one wasn't as good as some of her previous book selections. Two sisters who have been rivals since they were young children are working together at there father's company Pegasus Satellite and they each have different roles in the company. Jennifer is the smart one who runs the technical side of the company. When she agrees to go to the Cannes Film Festival it is there that she meets Padraig the Irish movie star who sweeps her off her feet and shows her a life that she can't believe, but as life would be some things look too good to be true and when Jennifer finds her life in danger she leaves Padraig. Catherine is the prettier and more social sister who is out to take Hollywood by storm with the company. It is in Hollywood that Catherine finds her mark and starts to work with Padraig in a movie company. She is also the one who manages to screw things up in everyone's lives. This book really did not keep me guessing I had a feeling about who was the good sister and was the evil sister from about half way thru the book. I cannot say I loved this book, but I didn't hate it. It just at times moved too slowly for me.

Summary: SKIP THIS ONE!
Review: To say this is atrocious drivel is to pay it a compliment. Skip this book and save your money AND your time. Learn from MY mistake and pass this one up. Jennifer, the biz whiz and her actress sister Catherine have been rivals their entire lives. They are a year apart and despite the lavish gifts they received since childhood, there is that underlying resentment and rivalry. Jennifer marries this revolting excuse of a man named Padraig O'Connell. He has no saving grace. Natrually Catherine gets into the mix and the marriage goes bust. That was ONE favor Catherine granted Jennifer! Towards the end of the book, there is a battle to the death (and yeah, we do have a casualty here, folks) and the lackluster ending does nothing to enhance the book. There was not one single likable character in this atrocious book. There are no surprises, no shocks, no saving graces to be found. This book is a complete waste. I would not wish this book on anyone. This book belongs in the toilet.
