Tidings of Great Joy

Rating:
Summary: Boring and Predictable
Review: Well, I've read the other reviews, and I agree that the end was somewhat disappointing, but that should not diminish the value and the fantastic plot, dialogue and characters. I loved this book. I just ran across is about a month ago and I have read it at least 6 times since. There were scenes that left me completely breathless, others nearly made me cry and some made me laugh. Sandra Brown is great with dialogue and fast-paced plot, and though this was not a "suspense-romance" novel like, let's say, "Best Kept Secrets" or "Where's There's Smoke", it was one of the best love stories I have ever read. A truly enjoyable novel.

Summary: Wonderfull. No other word.

Summary: Okay, until the end
Review: When I read the summary of this book, I thought it would be pretty good, so I went out and bought it -- even before it went to paperback, which is saying a lot for a cheapskate like me :) Now I wish I hadn't wasted the money. The ending of this book was one of the most moronic things I've ever read in my life. I won't spoil it for anyone who wants to read it, but believe me, it's not worth the time. I liked the idea behind the book, no matter how unlikely it was... but the end had just TOO much corniness for me.
