Beaches

Rating:
Summary: The fastest book I've ever read and the most touching.
Review: Beaches is a novel that will make you laugh, cry, and fill you up with love. It shows that opposites do attract and can stay connected through thick and thin. When Cee Cee Bloom- a marvolous singer - meets Hillary Whitney, they become two peas in a pod. Though they are not right there by each other all the time, they write each other letters trying to keep the other one in touch. When Hillary comes down with a disease, she asks Cee Cee to go along to watch her and her daughter at their summer beach house. The ending will make you cry and that's where I end. If you've seen th emovie "Beaches", you'll absolutely love the novel by Iris Rainer Dart.

Review: I finally got a hold of this and have to say that it was a quick and very engrossing read. Am I the only one however to notice that the biggest thing these two women had in common was their appalling taste in men? I found their relationships so degrading that it was hard at times to keep reading.

The fate of the one decent man in the book is a tired and rather stupid bit of emotional manipulation generally used by writers who don't have Ms. Dart's writing ability. She could have done better than that.

I'm not sure if I'd pick this book up more than once but I'm glad that I read at least once.
