Rating: Summary: ONE OF THE WORST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ Review: BEING A DANIELLE STEEL FAN I COULD NOT BELIEVE SHE WROTE THIS BORING STORY. IT WAS A MAJOR LETDOWN.
Rating: Summary: Steel has sold out on her public Review: The book is uneven, written on an elementary school level, has terrible character development, and is utterly predictable, particularly if you've read his books before. Even the protagonist, who potentially can be the most complex character Steel has ever created, is passed off to us as one-dimensional.
Rating: Summary: Not what I had expected Review: I haven't read Steel for many years. I bought this book with generally good memories of her previous works; I was very disappointed. A very quick yet superficial and disjointed read. I would not recommend this to anyone.
Rating: Summary: Decent but not as good as her last books Review: I think that this book was totally predictable. You new what was going on by the first few chapters and the so-called surprise ending really wasn't a surprise at all because it was so predictable.
Rating: Summary: 1star for the 1st half, 0 for the ending. Review: I usually love DS, but this book was a major disappointment for me. I flew through the first half, thinking it was going to be a great read, but the last half was a complete let down. I hope she goes back to her surprise endings like in her older books.
Rating: Summary: Not Worth Your Time Review: I generally enjoy Steel's books. However this one I only finished to find out if she had invented a quirky finish. I felt it was poorly researched, quite repetetive and seemed to have been written in a hurry..If you are a Steel fan this one can be skipped. There are many more good fiction books on the market.
Rating: Summary: Trite and Predictable Review: I have always been a fan of Steels's. After reading the reviews in the publishing journals for The Klone and I, I fully expected to enjoy it. Now before you read the following, I have to admit that I am not the world's best judge of good writing and plots and been know to enjoy the trashiest of novels (I select fiction for a public library and am known as the Trash Queen for what I order). I finished the book but was quite annoyed with myself for doing so.
Rating: Summary: Not Up To Steels' Usual Standards Review: As with all of her books, I eagerly awaited her latest work, and boy was I ever disappointed for the first time in all the years I've been reading her! While it is a thin,fast reading book, the plot-line was very easy to figure out. It is as if she just wanted to submit a quick story to his publisher but didn't really bother to go over it and polish it up. Sorry, but this was a true waste of time (and money). Hopefully her next will be back to her usual fine storytelling best.
Rating: Summary: Avoid this book for all possible costs Review: Not the ususal Danielle Steel type of book but I did enjoyed it very much
Rating: Summary: Not his finest effort Review: Steel skimps on characters and action in favor of a lengthy discourse on clones. Avoid this one, a mere contractual obligation for Steel.
