Review: Frustrating
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 01 23, 2013
I read fiction books to help me feel better, to calm my emotions in these turbulent times. This book would be a poor choice for that goal. Color how much you consider this review based on that. (I'm the same with movies.)I will agree with the other readers: this book is under priced. It's a full length novel. I recommend the author reprice to at least $2.99 and possibly higher.I was going to write a long review, because I really want to rant at the writer a little, but I can't do so without giving plot spoilers, and those aren't fair. I will tell you this -- I have significant issues with trust violations, and the ones in this story are egregious. I can't forgive those the way it would be required in order to enjoy this novel.If it weren't for the trust violations, and the fact that the main character allows them to happen, I would have given this book a five. But the trust violations and the main character's reaction to them are so egregious to me that I am left crabby at the end of the novel, and I do not like ending a book in a poor mood.I also didn't like the way the main character, who is supposed to be so amazingly high end, lets things happen to her, especially her interactions with the police.Sorry. I'm just left so crabby after finishing this novel. I wanted an ending to make up for it. The author writes well, and there was such promise, but now I'm going to be crabby until I can move past it and forget the novel.
