5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent sequel for the true romantics in us all!, October 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Easy Freedom (Hardcover)

I have wanted to read this book for over ten years, and it was worth the wait. Picking up where Easy Connections left off, the book builds on the complex relationship between Cathy, Dev and Chris. It explores Cathy's continued battle to come to terms with her obsession for Dev, her feelings for their child and her career as an artist. The characters were developed to a greater extent throughout the book, and I found it easier to understand the motivations behind each of them. The sequel flows on very well in style and substance from Easy Connection, but it did leave me wanting more. After twelve years, will Liz Berry return for the third instalment?

Please, please, please reprint this book! I have a copy of "Easy Connections" which I was lucky enough to find at a second hand shop and ever since then I have been obsessed with all of Liz Berry's books. They are just so "real" and obsessive as well as romantic. "Easy Freedom" is such a perfect sequel and I really would love to read more of this compelling relationship (hint, hint)! Liz Berry has a unique way of just pulling you into the story so that I feel like Dev, Chris and Cathy are a part of my life. I just couldn't put it down the minute I found it at the library and have continued to re-borrow and re-read it many times in the past few years until my local library unfortunately lost it as well as all her other books. Coincidence? I don't think so! I would really really really like to purchase a copy of this book since I can no longer even borrow it at the library!

5.0 out of 5 stars Thoughts on Easy Freedom, January 21, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Easy Freedom (Hardcover)

Thanks to a helpful person, I have finally been able to read this book and it has proved to be as compelling as Easy Connections. Although the story is much darker than the first one (which I feel is rightly so), the characters are further developed and their motivations are shown more vividly. There are some unexpected surprises that kept me on the edge of my seat as well as returning characters from the previous book and a manipulative Chris who proceeds to ruin Dev and Cathy's unsteady relationship with his jealous tricks. Overall, it's an excellent read with a very welcomed conclusion (Cathy finally admits to Dev that she loves him!). Unfortunately, the ending is as elusive as the first and I am left with the impression that Liz Berry may have wanted to continue onward with a trilogy. Personally, I think that if there ever is another, it should be about Chris--it's time he finds a woman to love who will love him back!
