3.0 out of 5 stars
Few characters and some plot twists make this one redeemable, July 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Someone Special (Hardcover)
This is an OK book with only one character, Nell, to redeem it. The rest is just not good enough. The whole tie-in with Elizabeth II of England is not inspiring although a message that everyone wants to be special is a nice touch. If the author focused more on Nell and her mother, then the book would have been better. I also felt that the author was too removed from the action. She was writing about them in such reserved manner that it was impossible to "escape" reality with this one. The writing talents of Judith Saxton need to be re-evaluated although her plot development is quite gool.

I really liked this book alot. I felt really drawn to Nell and her mothers story the most. Actually I wish the whole book was all about them.
