5.0 out of 5 stars A great book!, September 17, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Low Country (Hardcover)

I was very surprised to see all the negative reviews for "Low Country". I personally thought it was one of Anne Rivers Siddons' best books ever. I agree with the readers that say that her genre is somewhat predictable, but that is what makes her books almost comforting. I, for one, like happy endings. I loved "Colony" and "Fault Lines" and put this one on the same level. She chooses her surroundings carefully, but her characters always seem to be a part of their area. Any woman who has been through a crisis that shakes her marraige to the bone and makes her grow as woman and a partner can relate to her books.

2.0 out of 5 stars Trite plot with predictable ending, October 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Low Country (Mass Market Paperback)

After enjoying "Colony" so much last year I eagerly looked forward to this latest novel. I found I had to struggle to finish the book and was very disappointed at the lack of imagination at the end. Obviously this book did not inspire me to read anything further by Siddons.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bland and predictable, June 27, 2000

Manola Sommerfeld (California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Low Country (Hardcover)

Too much melodrama in this novel. Too many over-the-top characters. My favorite is the Jewish-Cuban-with-an-Italian-name, who minutes after meeting the wife of his boss, calls him "Mengele" to her face. Come on! Although i read some very nice passages, this book is nothing more than a glorified romance novel from the supermarket shelf.
