Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not her best
Review: I have loved almost all of Judith McNaught's novels, but not this one. I couldn't figure out what it was that brought these two people together. It was still a good read, but it doesn't compare to Paradise.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Could have been better but not so bad!
Review: I love McNaught's novels and had a high expectation in Remember When. I have to agree with many other readers. I was a little disappointed after I finished the book because I felt it was missing something. It could have been better, and been able to go into more deep in characters, especially the main characters Cole and Diana. There is not much explanation why Cole fell in love with Diana. But still I like Cole as a man whom you can wish to be by his side.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I hope this book gets rewritten and republished!
Review: I, too, agree with many of the readers. This book was NOT worth the price I paid for it (in hardback, no less)!

The first third of the book dealt with the main and secondary characters childhood. Well, we already knew about Corey and Spencer, Diana, Mary, and the grandparents...

The honeymoon scene turned me off - Diana's SOOOO drunk that she really didn't know what she was doing, and the fact that you REALLY didn't know if what she had "dreamt" was really a dream, or if it actually happened.

I got confused when after Cole and Diana made love at the ranch, all he said was, "Please," to which Diana responded, "I love you." There was NO mention that he was actually falling in love with her; sure, he was attracted to her...but I thought the characters were superficially developed.

As stated in my one-line summary of this book, I sure hope that Ms. McNaught rewrites this book and really expound on the main characters a great deal more, instead of rehashing what she wrote in "Double Exposure."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful read despite the bad reviews
Review: I had read all those bad reviews and was really reluctant to spend the money on it. I am not necessarily a McNaught fan, but enjoyed the short story 'Double Exposure'. I really liked this book, too! It may not be real graphical, but it's subtlety appealed to me a lot! So if you did not like the other McNaught books, read this one! It's worth it!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Clearly her worst yet.
Review: This book was so boring it took forever to finish it. It lacked the passion and energy found in her other books. Not one to be bought for keeps.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: This novel did not focus on the characters.
Review: It was my idea that this novel would focus on the emotions of the characters. Instead, it detailed the business aspect of their lives. The best part of the book is the beginning, when we are drawn into Diana's life. The latter part of the novel loses the depth of the characters as it details the superficial aspect of their lives. The repetition about how Diana and Cole became successful tends to emotionally distance the reader from the characters.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I was very disappointed by this book...
Review: I generally only buy books in their paperback version, so I waited a really long time to read this one, since it took forever to switch over from hardback to paperback. I was really let down when I finished. This book definitely did not have the Judith McNaught charm of her other novels. There was too much individual focus, not enough relationship development. The story did not capture my imagination and my heart the way Ms. McNaught's other novels have. I'm not a huge fan of Tender Triumph or Double Standards, but I think that even they were better than this one! I'm not giving up on Ms. McNaught forever, I just hope her next venture is more in line with the wonderful work we know that she can do!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Definatly not one of her best
Review: I read this and was shocked that McNaught could produce such a low quality of writing. This looked like something a highschooler might write, but not Judith. What usually gets me about McNaught books is that I get really mad at them. During this one, I didn't. Her books usually make me feel like I've never felt before, but I have felt the emotion this book made me feel... bored. My first McNaught book I read was Perfect, and that's turned out as my favorite. If any of you have read that book, you've probably gotten very mad at it. That's what I love about McNaught. You can be mad one minute, and extremely happy the next. This book didn't give any of that out. I was VERY dissapointed. Where did her creativity go?

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: a somewhat disappointing read for a J McNaught fan
Review: First time readers: Her other books are MUCH better. This books is only for hard-core JMN fans -- and not even them, actually. It's such a disappointment! I kept checking if it was written by Ms McNaught, it was THAT bad.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Wrong Focus
Review: The character of Cole and Diana are the best i have read of all the Judith's book, yet the focus is on the wrong half and there is no hilight about their love, I hope there will be a next book, Remember When ( Continue), portray the same character yet put them in the limelight.
