Rating: Summary: A Joyful Book Review: This is the first book of Danielle Steel which I read after yearss. May be I would have read a couple before. But I did not seem to remember any of them.By mistake I took this book and thought that I would give it a try.But it was simply atrocious.After about 50 pages I just could not go on.But generally I dont leave a book half read.So I completed it.The story revolves around three boring old couples and their trip to a place called St.Tropez.These 3 couples are supposed to be the best of friends.Although this point will be stretched in every point of the book,as a reader having read many books you would never feel so.And how they spend time at St.Tropez(which is written in such a lackluster way) forms the story.Oh gosh!I just wanted to try her book.But never will I try reading Steel's books again!May be some of her other books may be good.But after reading this book, one would never attempt to try another one of hers!
Rating: Summary: A True Quick Read Review: Usually I don't read too much, but since winter is coming, I have been reading more than ususal. This is only the 2nd Danielle Steel book that I have read and I must say that I liked it. I will admit she repeats herself quite a bit, but the reader is able to overlook that and appreciate a good book. D.S. is real descriptive about the setting of the story and even added a little humor about the owners of the house the families rented in St. Tropez. It added just enough comedy to mix well with the plot. As the story unravels, D.S points out to her readers that even though accomodation conditions are not the best, you can still have a good time. I really enjoyed the ending. This book only took me 2 days to read. I will definately be reading more of her books.
