3.0 out of 5 stars Irresistible Forces, not too irresistible, January 11, 2000

This review is from: Irresistible Forces (Hardcover)

I have been an avid Danielle Steel reader for years and with every book you find likes and dislikes. With Irresistible Forces I found Steve to be and honest and hard working individual trying to make the best out of a busy trauma unit, i enjoyed the way Steel sent her lady character around the world on a working business trip with a handsome, sophisticated, wealthy man with no hanky panky, it showed that Merrie had integrity, that she was committed to her husband.. As a dislike, the story was drawn out, it could have been done in less words, there was a lot of repetitiveness, i didn't feel really connected with the characters, you couldn't get into the storyline with them... I'll still add it to my collection of Steel novels but the chances of reading it again are slim to none... Not her best work...

2.0 out of 5 stars Easy Reading, But Not a Feel Good Book, November 22, 1999

This review is from: Irresistible Forces (Hardcover)

I used to buy every Danielle Steel book without reading the fly covers. My favorites are Message from Nam and Family Secrets. Some of her more recent ones I wasn't too crazy about. Irresistible Forces sounded good and I have to admit I finished it in a day. Easy reading. However, being happily married, I was downright depressed when I finished this book and rather than putting it in the keeper pile I put it in the "books to be given to the library bag. I just found this book really depressing and I can't help wondering if Steel's recent marital woes are reflected in her writing. Hope she gets happy soon.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Not Much of A Story, December 6, 1999

By

This review is from: Irresistible Forces (Hardcover)

There wasn't much more to this book then what was written on the cover. Only ONE thing towards the end that wasn't mentioned on the cover, and that didn't effect anything. It never "grabbed" me, kept boring me with details that made no difference to the story whatsoever. Same things over and over and over, like we didn't get it the first 5 times before. It was as if a child with simple language had written this story. I kept reading and hoping SOMETHING interesting would happen, but then the book ended. Save your money or I'll sell you my copy, CHEAP. :)
