The funniest thing to come out of Australia since the platypus, only much sexier!

1.0 out of 5 stars Awful., February 13, 2005

By	Penny Mccleave (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dead Sexy: A Novel (Hardcover)

I didn't think it was possible for a book filled with such clichés and ridiculous plot lines to actually be published. The over-verbalization of every sentence is painful to read and distracting from the story itself. Example: "Lust jitterbugged in her gusset". Seriously, what? When I first picked it up, I thought it had actually potential. Admittedly it had a few laugh out loud lines but generally that was ruined by the unrealistic interaction between the characters and the storyline that even the writers from Passions would scoff at. The ending itself caused me to throw the book across the room in utter astonishment that someone had taken the time to edit, publish and market. This is possibly the worst book I have ever read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Bother, January 15, 2009

By	Jodie Bowen "tiggerbow" (Queens Park, Western Australia Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I decided to read this book after reading Kathy's new book, 'To love, honour and Betray' - I should not have bothered.
I probably should have read the reviews here first.
This book is so very silly, it is full of sarcastic and convoluted sentences, main characters that you never bond with and silly plot lines.
I will probably try some of her other books after I can forget about this one!.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little mind candy for a day at the beach, July 27, 2007

By	L. Wilson - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book kept me laughing about til about half way through and then even though it was sort of a cliche' about men and women..I had to see how it ended. Happily of course as all romance type novels should. There were a few erotic moments just to keep you hooked. I'd say all in all it's a great book for a day in the sun. Not Shakespeare but entertaining nonetheless.
