Customer Reviews

A Gift for my Mom

I bought this book as a gift for my mother. She's an avid fan of the show and couldn't wait to really read this book that everyone was talking about on her favorite soap. Take it for what it is...a book written by a fictional character on a Soap...it's a read for fun! If you really like the show, I'm sure you will love it. I think it was my mom's way of kind of being part of the action because everyone on the show was reading it. I thought it was a cute concept. Anway, again, she loved it and I have since read the book myself. I do not watch the show or know anything about the show, but I did enjoy this book as well. It was a really fun and easy read. So whether you do watch the show or do not, I honestly believe you will like this book. I did and my mother loved it. I'm glad I could do this for my mom. She deserves something nice every now and then...a little "I love you just because gift" never hurt anyone and books are great for that! Thanks for listening to me ramble!!

Just what I'm looking for.

This book was better than I could've ever imagined. I myself do not like reading books because very few authors can pull off a good book. At first, I was THINKING I was going to be disappointed, because the author was a writer of a soap that doesn't always do its best, and it just seemed weird. However, I took a huge step and read it. There is humor, tons of mystery and suspense, a few affairs, common controversy, guaranteed shocks in every chapter, and a question you will ask yourself, who is killing the Killing Club and how close are they to the main character? This book is an easy read and will be liked by most, if not all.

Very Sunpensful yet very good

I am a big fan of the Soap One Life to Live and when I heard about the book being avaible to everyone I went to the bookstore and bought it. The book is very interesting. Yet it also keeps you in suspense as to who is behind it all. This is a great murder mystery and I would highly reccomend it to anyone of my friends.

I haven't watched soaps for years

So when I bought this book I was a little put off by the sticker on it relating to One Life to Live. All in all, I really ejoyed it. I had just finished a book that left my mind bogged down and this was the perfect answer. A light, quick, read with a good story line and a decent cast of characters. If you enjoy whodunnits and like a little humor with your mystery, you'll enjoy this book even though it was a little predicable.

Pleasantly Surprised!

I hate to say that I didn't expect a lot out of this book, but bought it more for the novelty (no pun intended) of it. As a viewer of One Life to Live I was curious to see if the book was more for plot purposes on the show or a real novel. I was pleasantly surprised! It is a delightful book, with lots of humor and enough mystery to keep me interested enough to read the whole book in one sitting.
