Review: Somewhere.... out there
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 03 31, 2014
At 68% of the book, it was still unclear where the book was headed. Yes, I understand that erotica is always headed for the bedroom.. but if that is the end all— be all.... then just write a string of sex scenes and call it good.Akeroyd had a talent for description, but without direction, it's nothing more than a pretty pictureA 'lover' that the main character has been flying into Chicago to meat for years.... all of a sudden half way through the book... surprises her with a prosthetic hand? Talk about jumping the shark half way through the clown act...Akeroyd pulls on a see-through nighty of Russian Mafia, and other baddies as a smoke screen for dragged out sex.....  when she, in places, shows great talent for telling a good story. I think if she focused on the larger story that just happened to also have some steamy sex, she would have a more engaging novel.But, without a road map and sign posts, I got lost and then didn't care anymore.
