review 1: This book started well. I enjoyed reading about the backgrounds of the main characters and their entangled histories, although I have to say that I didn't really find any of them particularly likeable. The world of the rich and famous is incredible, I can't even begin to imagine living in such luxury, but I found that the book started to drag a little in the middle and I didn't like the ending at all. Characters who have done wrong should always get their comeuppance in my mind!
review 2: I really enjoyed all the details - such as special cooling systems for beaches to keep rich people's feet from burning. Very much a morality tale, the crazy cast of characters are pursued by the fates just as surely as anyone in Greek Tragedy. But along the way you get wond... moreerful clothes, delicious meals, scheming harpies, ingenues, amazing descriptions of how the uber rich enjoy themselves, and lots of plot. Really recommend for an enjoyable wallow on a winter's night. Preferably in the bath. less
