Rating: Summary: Molly T: The bionic version of Gloria Steinam on steroids? Review: Have you ever had to endure a long car trip with people thatyou really didn't care to be around? That would sum up the distastethat I had for the characters in this story. Molly T. is somewhat of a bionic Gloria Steinam on steroids ... Her partners in crime include a wishy-washy ex-policeman, a submissive sibling sister and a former drifter from the streets of D.C. Together, they manage to wreak havoc, kill and blow up things throughout the story.Since you can only guess that this southern boy doesn't quite agree with Miss Molly's cause, I found that the story line was repetitive and the characters were so annoying that, like intolerable company on a long ride in the car, I couldn't wait for the trip to be over! I give this book the BIG thumbs down. There ARE better things out there to read!

Rating: Summary: Male Chauvinists Beware Review: I found this book to be an intriguing and insightful tale of the plight of he average american woman's struggle. It clearly shows that we have come so far in the evolution of our sex. It is only hateful to men if they refuse to read between the lines. Sanders unravels a cleverly woven tale of the internal as well as the external struggles for women to be free not only from the constraints of society but from the ties that they bind themselves with. It is comendable as to how the author being a man is able to capture the former as well as the genuine essence of woman. This book is to be read and praised by every generation to come.

Rating: Summary: One of the best ever; something every feminist should read. Review: I had difficulty putting this book down because of the suspense. The plot was very well developed.
Rating: Summary: Insipid Yet Mildly Entertaining Review: While reading this book I constantly was tempted to set it aside. I knew the outcome, the dialogue was fairly predictable and the action was ho-hum. Maybe this is Lawrence Sanders mea culpa for his "traditional" (politically incorrect) excellent police procedurals - Sins, Commandments, etc. There's lots of violence, a hallmark of 20th century ideology in which we have slowly become accustomed to the use of violence for political purposes whether it be bombing a clinic, church, destroying property, rioting, looting or murdering 3,000 people because they are seen as the enemy.
Molly is a real winner, yes-sir, a one woman force dedicated to helping the "weaker" sex. Her methods are suspect, lots of lying and double-crossing, blackmail and sexual liasons when the urge hits. The lead male character was truly "out of character" - a tough cop who obediently carries out her violent bidding without question. Yet he never evinces for a second a genuine interest in advancing the cause of women, if "women" can be a "cause".
Molly and Associates's aim is redress for all the bad years and numerical equality in all positions regardless of ability, skill or experience. To get this accomplished they kill and threaten people - simple as that. At the end, the new FEMALE Veep nominee presents a set of ludicrous demands (a woman to head the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Federal Reserve, etc) to the next Prez and opines smugly to hubby that perhaps the President won't live out his first term. What a gal!
