3.0 out of 5 stars sweet little romance for summer reading, July 16, 2003

This review is from: Love in Another Town (Hardcover)

Barbara Taylor Bradford's "Love in Another Town" is a lightweight little book to read on a breezy summer afternoon, lying in the hammock. Her story unfolds smoothly, effortlessly, with apt descriptions of people and places; she has a sure touch with realistic dialogue, and a sure knowledge into her characters' hearts.

She swings into the supernatural with the account of a life-changing near-death experience of one of the women. All ends
well as people grow through misfortune, make their choices, find
authentic love and happiness.

Recommended for a couple of carefree summer hours under a big shade tree---lemonade would be good too!

1.0 out of 5 stars Makes Danielle Steele look like Shakespeare, January 22, 2004

This review is from: Love in Another Town (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was really lame. It is riddled with cliches and it is shorter then a young adult novel. Total waste of time. The Lifetime movie was much better, so you know how bad this really was.

3.0 out of 5 stars Makes you think..., December 30, 1998

This review is from: Love in Another Town (Mass Market Paperback)

I am a BTB fan but I feel this book was rather basic for her. I liked the story and there were many points that really made me thing and gave me hope for the future. I was disappointed in the length though and wished the story had continued. Overall a good read.
