Customer Reviews

Not an edge of your seat Patterson novel...
but I still enjoyed it. Okay, so it is a bit twee and girly, but I'm a girl so I'm allowed to emerse myself in sentimental stories every now and again. This story has all the right works for a B movie - 'lonely eight year old girl's best friend is Michael, her invisable/imaginary adult friend, who she continues to carry a torch for into her adult life...Think of this story as a romantic version of Drop Dead Fred and that pretty much sums it up.

Not his normal "can't put it down" book
Well this book was an okay read, and I did enjoy it, but I must say it's not his best. I did wonder if the co-author had more of a hand in it than Patterson himself, as I don't feel it came up to his usual standard of writing. It left lots of questions unanswered and didn't really grip me. Having said all that it's still worth a read, but I would probably wait for it on paperback rather than go to the expense of buying it in hard back.

HE CAN TURN HIS HAND TO ANYTHING
No this isn't his usual but what an author that he can change styles so completely! This is a great 'feel good' book, something ideal to curl up on the couch with on a wet and windy weekend. You care about the people in the book and get a warm feeling when things work out in the end! I am glad he doesn't write like this all the time because his thrillers are brilliant but it is great to see him diversify.
