Product Description

Sapphire Jones doesn't believe in relationships anymore - not since she caught her husband in bed with another woman. Now Sapphire only sees men on her terms which is why her current lover is younger than her, good looking, doesn't place any emotional demands on her [so far, fingers crossed] and is great in bed. What more does a girl need? Sapphire puts all her passion into running her own business - a high end lingerie and hen weekend company. She is doing well and life seems pretty good until she meets a very handsome, charming businessman who seems more than a match for Sapphire. Then things go badly wrong at the hen party she has planned for a soap star and tabloid darling. The evening is one that everyone will be talking about for all the wrong reasons and Sapphire faces front page headlines all of her own...Suddenly her business is in jeopardy, her well-controlled private life is falling apart, and in the middle of all this Sapphire realises that she is not immune to love after all, but has she left it too late?

A triumph
I approached this book with all the trepidation of a man nearing a Van Gogh, a Rembrandt or a Harris, bathing in its effusive glow with hands a-tremble.

Would it be the life-changing tome I hoped and feared it would be? Would its ideas and central theme radically alter my perception of life...indeed, my perception of reality itself and, ultimately, my place and significance in the cosmos?

The pages emit a golden, radiant wonder in their melifluence. Look hither and thither - jewel-like ideas chase eagerly through each paragraph in some glittering parallel of Milton's finest hour. Price is obviously a student of the Pashway/Karastakkian school of interfrodal character development. The book is populated by a veritable horde of perinatal, anamorphic conquistadors, all vying for space in the readers frontal cortex and each one larger than life, thanks to Price's inimitable grasp of the Quintriella principle.

I'm moved to place Price onto the same plane as Dickens - I'm transported into her world, rather than kept as a distant (if rabidly fervent) viewer. I'm saddened that she and Joseph Heller are destined never to meet - the unison of those two great minds would be one to behold, although mere mortals such as I would, most likely, be swept away by the resulting intellectual tsnunami.

"Sapphire" is the "Grapes Of Wrath", the "War And Peace", the "Crackerjack Annual, 1973" of our time and so it will forever remain, carved upon my soul like the names of two passion-filled lovers on some urban, arborial giant after a late-night knee-trembler in the doorway of a Tesco Express.

Bravo!!!

Shallow
One word describes this book, that word is 'Shallow'. A book written for shallow, thoughtless, uninspired people by a shallow, thoughtless untalented person.

OK if you have the reading level of a 5 year old
I've never read a Katie Price book so i thought I'd buy this book to give it a go. Wanted to give up by the middle of the book but hung on in until the end. Feel gutted that I wasted my money on something so trivial. Its not exactly gripping. It felt really superficial and was dull.
Do people actually buy this rubbish? I think this is probably the last time i read anything by KP...she's so 5 years ago. I personally prefer the Louise Bagshaw type of story or Sophie Kinsella for a summer read.
