Twice Tempted

Rating:
Summary: MANCHEE IS THE BEST
Review: It's 1966 and 19-year-old Fred Fuller is living a full life. He's a student at UCLA during the day, and at night, he works as a messenger for Bank USA. As a bank messenger, Fred delivers and picks up data processing from a half dozen banks between Ventura and Fillmore, California. Fred considers him self a virtuous and exemplary person, but will he feel the same when he finds himself twice tempted?

William Manchee has successfully penned another outstanding novel, keeping me spell bound throughout. I hesitate to say too much, because it's one of those books which proves true that "all is not as it seems," and I don't want to give too much away. I will say this, the plot was free flowing with plenty of twists and turns, and I was clueless all the way up to end and what an ending it was!

TWICE TEMPTED will have readers questioning their own morals and values, and wondering how they would react if faced with the same situation.

Summary: A gripping story that I couldn't put down.
Review: Once I started reading Twice Tempted I couldn't put it down. I was up all night reading it. I had to know how it ended. It was a great story.

Summary: Turgid prose and a tortured plot
Review: This is genuinely one of the worst books I have ever read. The plot is completely improbable and tortured. The characters are one dimensional and undeveloped. The wanton amorality of the main character makes identification with him beyond the realm of possibility. My time spent with Manchee and his characters would have been more productively employed peruseing the manual that came with my dishwasher. I sincerely hope the publishing world will stop inflicting attrocities such as Twice Tempted of the reading public.
