Rating: Summary: A good book to lose yourself in. Review: Combines romance with some scary violence. Some of the violence made me want to cry it was so heartless, as most violence is. Having a deaf heroine is certainly different and I enjoyed the change.
Rating: Summary: A let-down Review: It has been a while since the last book. The plot is interesting, the characters sufficiently developed. But I didn't like the ending where Jack told his story. I guess this shows the characters are flawed, and not altogether 'heros', but his story was just too horrific. Whatever happened, it seemed like he is a murderer. I prefer Sandra's past novels - more romance please!
Rating: Summary: It is not what we have come to expect from Sandra Brown Review: To be honest I could not get past the first chapter. I am so disappointed I usually can't wait for one of her books. I hear the next one is also not a romanctic suspense. Just a suspense. well they lost my $22.00
Rating: Summary: Good reading- Not for the faint-of-heart. Review: I really enjoyed this book. I would group it into 'one of my favorites by Ms Brown'. Although I thought the sections about the retired Sheriff could have been left out all together.
Rating: Summary: Worth a read if you're adventurous. Review: Brown has really done it this time. Nothing like her previous novels, "Unspeakable" is an excellent step in a new direction if she chooses to follow it. I'm a widely read individual, and Brown has tactfully mixed violence and romance together in a way I haven't seen before. If you're accustomed to Brown's usual writing style, I personally wouldn't recommend this book...but if you're up to reading something new, "Unspeakable" is the book for you. Readers should beware, however, of the language and violence - and that is tame compared to other authors I've read. Keep up the good work Sandra, it's good to see you trying something new!
Rating: Summary: WOW!!! Review: UNSPEAKABLE is a story filled with mystery, murder, violence, and tragedy revolving around a man with a troubled past seeking redemption, a widowed mother who is deaf and mute and afraid to love again, an aging sheriff determined to solve a mystery from long ago and about the two vicious killers who are hunting them as prey killing anyone in their way. UNSPEAKABLE is definitely not a story for the weak at heart or stomach. The violence is realistically detailed. The truthfullness- the reality check instilled this story makes this book quite unique among Brown's previous works. It is suspenseful yet passionate keeping you on the alert ready to hide under the covers or so hot you're aching for a shower. I definitely recommend it. You'll love it. Trust me!
Rating: Summary: I loved this book, I couldn't put it down. Review: What a wonderful love story between Jack & Anna. As the story skipped from Jack & Anna to Carl & Cecil Herbold I could not wait to get back to Jack & Anna. This is the best book I have ever read. Great story line. Sandra Brown is a wonderful author. I would like to read more of her work.
Rating: Summary: Her worst so far..... Review: I really enjoy Sandra Brown's suspense novels, but this one was her worst. The characters had zero chemistry, but the bad guys were the only ones I was looking forward to when reading this book! Come on, Sandra! You can do better than that!
Rating: Summary: Unspeakably bad! Review: I like Sandra Brown! I really do. Her "Where There's Smoke" is one of my favorite books right after Ayn Rand's "Foutainhead." But "Unspeakable" DID NOT have a story line. She forgot that she needed one to write a book. She also forgot that NICE women run when they meet BAD men; they don't wait to have sex with them. The characters did things that didn't fit with their character and everything was out of place including the story line. So she got the Texas lingo right; that still doesn't mean there was a story to tell here. I think Sandra Brown had a deadline and she wrote "Unspeakable."
Rating: Summary: Not her best, but I still like her style Review: The plot, characterization and flow were all mediocre, but the overall impression was good. It didn't make me stay up all night to finish it, but it was worth spending the time. -Rachel Sparks
