Customer Reviews

Even the rich have problems

This book isn't so much about how the rich live. It is a book about people act and react to life's situations. It shows the many ways people love each other and treat each other. The characters act consistently. You can feel a sense of connection with one or more characters. Other characters you will recognize, but know that you could not act that way. I finished it in a few days. It is an easy read.
