Review: Best to Get the Whole Book
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is only half the book. I, like others, didn't realize it wasn't the entire book. I base my reviews on the story in a book, but only got half the story here, so it's really hard to judge - hence my rating.Emily is straight-laced, nice girl who doesn't like drama preferring a well-organized life style instead. This flat, outwardly boring life she feels will give her what everyone desires - stability, love, and reward. She soon finds out she's wrong. And along with her change in lifestyle, comes a change in personality.This book has the theme of many books today - a rich person who can afford anything, but it does add a twist - a very conflicted protagonist. Emily has made a deal with the "devil" after losing her boyfriend and not getting the "sure-thing" promotion at her job. That deal isn't costing Emily anything extra as she has already decided she was finished with trying to fit it, as a matter-of-fact, it is paying for a little enjoyment - so she hoped - before she checks out. But even with a lot of money in her pocket, and a little action added to her life, Emily is still finding moving through the day a little difficult.The story seems predictable - the gay guy probably isn't gay, the devil doctor will somehow be tricked out of his due, and the girl and the guy will end up together. Don't know for sure if that how it turns out, I'd have to read the entire book to know, but that would be my guess. But because it seemed predictable, it didn't make me want to purchase the book just to read the second half. Nonetheless, the writing was good, and the book is an easy read. It wasn't funny, but was entertaining and kept this reader turning the page. Emily's personality change - she became very mean - was not enjoyable for me. I wanted to scream at her for some of the things she said and did, which says the author did a good job making her real.I would recommend passing up on this free installment and getting the whole book.
