Drop Dead Gorgeous

Summary: Drop Dead Awful
Review: Oh boy, where to start? Well, if you like poor writing, utterly predictable romance settings & situations, melodramatic dialogue of the usual Harlequin archetype, and one-deminsional characters ripped directely from a soap opera (the author even has her darlings compare themselves to 'The Bold and the Beautiful'--not once but two or maybe three times!), then this book is for you. Me, I read it out of desperation, being stuck in an English-Void while vacationing in Russia. Needless to say, I felt my IQ diminish rapidly with each painful page to the obvious climatic 'confusion/resolution.' In fact, the characters were so banal that half-way through I began rooting for the killer to succeed in his malevolent plan...until he was revealed as just as shallow as those he was knifing and strangling. Bah. I shed tears for all the trees slaughtered to fill the bestseller shelves with this worthless pulp. I hope the author enjoys her new SUV...

Summary: Not a usual Graham blockbuster!
Review: The only reason I kept reading was because it was Heather Graham. I really have enjoyed all of her other books,however this one was lacking in comparison. I think that it was a good story line, but it just never got developed into the usual blockbusters she writes. It was good to pass the time with, but by far not a favorite.

Summary: Great Romance and Mystery!
Review: This was my first time reading a Heather Graham book and I really enjoyed this one! This book is a great mystery that keeps you guessing until the very last pages, but also a wonderful, steamy romance book! I liked the idea of two high school sweathearts reuniting after years apart. I think it reminds us all of our first love or the huge crush you had on someone in high school and you always wondered "what if". All in all, this was a really fun read, the kind of book you pass along to all your friends. I look forward to spending many more late nights reading Heather Graham!
