Rating: 2 stars
Summary: *wince*
Review: When I sat down to read "Thursday's Child" I was prepared for B level romance. I was a little surprised to be disappointed. The book was a lot closer to a low C grade. There was little to no character development, scummy heros (a dangerous move that can only be pulled off by very good writers), and most frustrating of all no research into the supposed plot line. As a woman scientist I dont expect everyone to be familiar with the field, however something as blatant as the ethical issues of human testing I did expect to be common knowledge, if only from the movies. "Thursday's Child" was a major let down, especially since I've read some of her other books and I know she can do better.
