Rating: 1 stars
Summary: AWFUL!!
Review: I must agree with all of the reviews. I lasted until page 20 and couldn't take it any more. I have read Rosenberg's past books and don't remember hating them. If her next book is as bad as this one, I will add her to my list of "No more", which unfortunately contains alot of (modern day) authors! Where are the great authors?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worse than I expected
Review: I read one other book by Nancy Taylor Rosenberg several years ago and swore I wouldn't read another. Well, I checked this out (a book on tape..unabridged) from the library and listened to it while driving...that's probably the only reason I finished it.
The characters are laughable, the writing is amateurish....I won't make this mistake again.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Trial By Tedium
Review: The author should retitle this book. I gave it a one-star rating because there is no 0-star rating.

The problem? The author can't write.

What a sorry state the publishing industry is in when this sophomoric gibberish ends up on the New York Times best-seller list, and when its covers and intro pages are filled with praise by people who should and do know better.

Writing a bad book is one thing, and most folks are capable of it.

Reviewing a laughably bad book and showering praise on it for whatever reason is another, and to all those who did so in print -- shame on you!
