Summary: A Fifty-something Fairy Tale
Review: "Sunset" is a pre-senior rite of passage written with a pre-teen sophistication. The language is fuzzy was he (he was, she was, it was dominating the sentence structure) and the narrative plodding with scenes being continually rehashed as every character has to hear about just about everything that happens. Very sober problems of death, infidelity, illness and life's other crises and surprises are crammed into a two-week trip to France. In the audiobook it took three tapes to get to the guts of the story where two catty wives totally misjudge widower Robert's movie star guest. He, a sophisticted 63-year-old judge by day, is of course way too naive to see what's going on around him.It's not the worst 2002 summer novel, "The Beach House" and "The Mighty Johns" make it look good, but hardly worth the time or money.

Summary: Spend the summer in St Tropez
Review: After not reading any of Danielle Steel for many years I decided to give her latest book a try. As always I felt with Danielle Steel she rushed to get the book out there and at times I felt like the story was rushed and not enough was explained. 3 couples who have been friends for years always get together to spend time together. Anne and Roberts, Diana and Eric and Pascale and John. They get together all the time to have dinner and once and a while they all go on trip together. When the idea to spend the summer in St Tropez the entire group decides that it would be a wonderful idea. When tragedy strikes the group, they start to wonder if there trip that summer would be a good idea. But as time goes on they see that they need to move on and go on the trip. When they arrive at the house in St. Tropez they find it isn't exactully what they expected. As time goes on during that summer many things change that make each person look at things in new light. This was a good quick read... I might be up for another Danielle Steel book in time, but I won't be reading every book by her.

Summary: How did this get published?
Review: After reading this book, I am pretty sure that this woman gets her work published just because "Danielle Steel" will be on the cover which means some following of hers will automatically purchase it. I am serious when I say it was predictable and painful to read. I am totally turned off and will NEVER read another one of Steel's boring novels.

Summary: Delightful Read
Review: Anyone disappointed in the past by her past novels. Will get a great surprise with this one. I like the plot of this story especially how each deals with the death of their friend Anne. it was very realistic. Her endings in her novels needs to be more genuine not everything is happy ever after. But overall it was a great read you won't be disappointed.

Summary: A little different than the norm....

Summary: HO HUM...
Review: Can you say HO HUM!? This book was a yawner! Ms. Steel bored me to death with her descriptions...it was like she thought I needed remedial help. Perhaps she was just running out of ideas so she felt she needed to be repeatative to fill in the page requirement. Nevertheless, I read this thinking that I would get her another shot after not reading anything by her in quite some time. Not going to waste my time again. Wonder who I can pawn my hardback off on....

Summary: Yawn
Review: Danielle Steel's writing has really slipped over the years. She's cranking out novels at an unbelievable speed and her writing is not nearly what it used to be. When I first started reading her books 20 years ago, they really swept me away and into the story. Some were a tad predictable, but still very engrossing and interesting. Anymore, her stories are completely predictable, with no twists and turns at all. I didn't enjoy this one much at all!

Summary: same as all the other ones...
Review: Danielle Steele's books are all the same, just different characters. I don't know why I waste my money on them. The story in this book is light, and very predictable. I figured out the story line half way through the book. If you need something to read just to pass the time...then go ahead and purchase this. But if you are looking for a deep romance book or something than keep on looking. Boring!
