review 1: Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ... moreASAP.
review 2: Actually, I refuse to read this book. I did start reading the list of characters that is part of the book. I dislike it when the author talks of how funny the characters...personally, I'd rather find that out for myself. Then after reading how the characters are described according to their personalities, (such as " funny, adorable, logical, stubborn, forgettable, master of disguises), I came to Tessie Spankowitz, who is described as 56, and chubby. No personality, I guess. We are supposed to make assumptions just because she's chubby? And then there's Spankowitz, who's described as "married to Tessie". Guess that's supposed to tell us about him, too, right? No thanks to the book. less
