Lake Effect

Rating:
Summary: Just plain bad
Review: Being a Western New York native, I was eager to read a murder mystery set in familiar places; however, if I hadn't suggested it to my book club, I would have thrown it away after the first 15 pages. Besides blatant grammatical and editing errors, it switched tenses, had hoakey, contrived, and unrealistic conversations, and the main character had an obsession with going to Tim Horton's!! What prominant developer do you know who would allow his daughter to live in a trailer park?
There was one good thing about Lake Effect. (...)

Summary: Witty!
Review: I signed into Amazon so that I could buy a copy of this book for my friend who has moved out of the area - I was very surprised to see the prior review from Derby, NY - I laughed out loud when I saw her point out that there are more millionaires than trailer park people in Derby - last I remembered, this book was fiction, wasn't it? :) And she should probably read her own review before commenting on grammatical errors! I thought the book was good, particularly for native Western New Yorkers. And I am proud to have a book published by someone from my hometown and wish him well!

Review: This is really bad! It must have been self-published, because I can't imagine any publishing company actually taking this one on. There are editing mistakes and it has a predictable plot. Several of my friends also read this, and we all said the same thing. It is poorly written. I was hoping that it would have been good. I am also from Hamburg, NY
