review 1: This should be a no-brainer easy summer read type of book, and it's not that it is bad, I am sure many would enjoy it, it is just that it is one of those books where it is taking forever for anything interesting to actually happen and just when something starts to happen, the main character - in what I suspect is the author's attempt to tease or keep the suspense up - decides to do something really dumb like pick out her outfit for the next day or something.

Alas, it was exactly as I'd thought right from the beginning. less
