Rating:  Summary: way to cool, specially the romance between the protagonists Review: i like it a lot because it was kind of different. also because it shows a part of women that a lot of people don't know. It shows how can women overcome fear barriers and obtain victory by their own effort. way to go, Iris!!!!!
Rating:  Summary: I was hooked Review: I loved the story and I don't usually like these thriller type of books, I find them too boring. I found this one to be very suspenseful, with a female lead who was not a whinny wimp. It was the first of Iris' books that I have read and I will be reading more of them
Rating:  Summary: Long After Midnight Review: i loved this book! i have read it over and over again! i could never put it down! i would tell everyone to read this book! it is that good! so if you are reading this please go out and but or check it out of your local libary.
Rating:  Summary: Excellent and Enjoyable! Review: I loved this book! I never read this author's work before but I will now. I really enjoyed just about every page. I totally loved the guy the main character fell in love with. I was really pleased with the ending. However the only criticism I have is that the main character was sort of annoying. Her sarcasm was not becoming and she did a few stupid things throughout the book. It's definitely worth it though cause the book is spectacular!
Rating:  Summary: CAN'T PUT IT DOWN PAGE TURNER Review: I really enjoy Ms. Johanson's writing style. She is very easy to read and grabs your attention quickly. She has a way of making you come know the characters and to feel for them. This novel is exciring, thrilling and suspenseful. I was even unsure of how the romance plot was going to end until she offed one of the suitors. If you like a good page turner, this one's for you.
Rating:  Summary: SLOW BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE!! Review: I swear everytime I finish one of her books that I'm not going to read another one; yet when I see a new one, I pick it up. As with her other books, this book never quite takes flight. You can almost see it hobbling down the run-way waiting for the "fly" signal...some books eventually fly and others just keep hobbling...this was one of those hobbling books.I'm not sure what the problem is. The characters are likeable but may need to bo "punched up" a little. Everything feels dark and foreboding in this book. Maybe I keep reading because I do see so much potential. But, while I am certainly no author, I think that maybe giving these folks a little lightness and showing their positive human traits, there is a story worth both reading and writing.
Rating:  Summary: Outstanding Review: I would recommend this book for all to read. Iris Johanson writes and as you read you become part of the story line.
Rating:  Summary: Silly characters, not easy to follow plot Review: I'm struggling to get through this book now, although I'm not sure why I just don't put it down. The kid, Joshua, drives me nuts; a totally unbelievable personality and comments from him. Kate is supposed to be this strong woman, but she usually has no idea what to do, easily is bullied and manipulated, and sappy. I guess I just don't like the author's style (sort of a blend of Barbara Cartland, Danielle Steele, and Sidney Sheldon), so will avoid her books in the future.
Rating:  Summary: A HIT!! Review: It hardly seems fair that my rating of the abridged tape of this book should be put into the same pool with the ratings of those who read the book. Based on the volume of strong and positive reviews for the book on paper, something must have been lost (big time) in the abridgement for tape. What I heard can only be described as a adult cartoon played by two-dimensional characters in a fantasy. Bottom-line: Save your money and buy the book in paper.
