Rating: Summary: TRASH CAN Review: I have never stopped rreading a book when I am 100 pgs into it. But there always is a first. I was really disappointed in Sandra Brown, I have read most of books, especially her earlier romance novels. She was a witty sensual writer and I enjoyed her earlier work, but this book could not capture my attention. The characters were not interesting enough to keep reading. I'm glad I bought the paperback version. And I will have to agree with the reader from Rochester Minnesota, this book goes in the garbage. I wish Sandra Brown would go back to her original style and write romance. She wrote well and it was enjoyable. Her current style of writing is not enjoyable, and I don't think I will be buying any of her new books.
Rating: Summary: The worst Sandra Brown story I ever read Review: I love Sandra Brown. I can't wait until her next book comes out. This story was boring. Hardly any romance. I was more interested in the bad guys than the good guys. I hated the way she had the retired sherriff in the story. He could have been left out. It could have been a great story if she wrote it different. I didn't like how the story ended. Very disapointed . It won't stop me from reading another book from her. She is one of the best romance writers out there.
Rating: Summary: Great Escape Review: I consider fiction dessert and non-fiction my main course. This truffle is great escape. No, it's not high literature, but the story is interesting. The only other Brown book that I had read was "Fat Tuesday" and it was a bit too warm and fuzzy for me. This is wonderful rainy day reading, but not for the faint of heart.
Rating: Summary: I was very disappointed and disgusted with this book. Review: I have never thrown a book out before, but with this one, I felt the only thing to do it justice was the garbage can. I have read every one of Sandra Brown's books and was very disappointed in the subject matter and disgusted with the darkness in this novel. I thought better of her. I may not ever read another book by her.
Rating: Summary: Very violent with very sick characters Review: I agree with the reviewer from Texas..I have read ALL of Sandra Brown's books and this one was a real disappointment. I found as I read more and more about Carl, Cecil, and the gang, I did not even want to pick it up because I knew I would read in detail how they killed their next victims. This was a very dark and violent book and nothing like what I am used to by Sandra Brown. All I can say is that had I not waited for the paperbook version to come out, I would have been very irked at spending that much money on such a disappointing book from my favorite author.
Rating: Summary: The ending was a let down Review: Although I am a fan of Sandra Brown, I must admit I was disappointed with this book. The middle seemed too slow and when I got to the end I was extremely disappointed. It seemed as though the deadline was coming up fast and she needed to finish it quickly. I invested time in reading it and felt let down by the last chapter and Jack's speech at the end.
Rating: Summary: Loved It. couldn't put it down! Review: I loved it. even the ending. It seem so real. if he wouldn't of told the truth it wouldn't of had that last connection. You knew it was there and excited to find out the answer! A MUST READ!
Rating: Summary: Disappointing, too violent, too little romance Review: I've read every one of Sandra Brown's books, going back to when she was Erin St. Claire for Silhouette Books. I've never been as disappointed as I was after reading this one. The gratuitous violence and sickening characters were just too much. I thought this also lacked romance which she's been so good at writing in the past. I can only hope the next book will be more like her usual.
Rating: Summary: Very Interesting Book Review: This was a great book. I read it very quickly, it's a real page-turner. The characters in this book are very well developed. This is a fast-action book, that is not boring. The dialogue and actions are well done. One of the best books I have ever read.
Rating: Summary: A REAL PAGE TURNER Review: . THIS IS THE FIRST SANDRA BROWN NOVEL I HAVE READ AND I'M SURE IT WON'T BE THE LAST. THE CHARACTERS WERE SOLID AND REAL TO ME.I HAD TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED! I USUALLY ENJOY READING NOVELS SET IN THE PAST, BUT I THOUGHT THIS WAS VERY GOOD!!I AM AN AVID READER OF ALL SORTS OF GENRE AND I DON'T USUALLY PICK UP ROMANCE TYPE NOVELS BUT THIS BOOK WAS MORE THAN THAT. MS. BROWN IS ONE TALENTED AUTHOR. READ THIS ONE. YOU WON'T BE SORRY.
