Hidden Passions : Secrets from the Diaries of Tabitha Lenox

Rating:
Summary: LOVED IT!
Review: When I first heard about this book I ordered it. Unfortunately I had to wait 2 months before it was available to be read. I say unfortunately since when I finally got to read it I had a hard time putting it down. I loved reading the background on Sam and Ivy's relationship and how it was destroyed by her father and Allistair Crane. Or Julian and Eve's relationship and how she turned her life around to meet a wonderful man in T.C. It was interesting to read bits and pieces of characters like Rebecca Osburn (Hodgekiss) and see how she manipulated the relationship of her now husband back then. It was good to finally meet Katherine Crane as well. (I wonder if Julian remembers the promise he made to his mother before he died??). I even enjoyed the little bit of information on Grace, Pilar, Martin, Luis, Sheridan, Antonio and the soulmate story on Luis and Sheridan in the past lifetime). I definately enjoyed Timmy's additions as well as the insights of Tabatha's diary entries. I just loved this book and will enjoy reading it again and again.

Summary: A MUST READ FOR PASSIONS FANS!
Review: This book is not only for the avid PASSIONS fan - who doesn't want to know how Ivy and Sam kept their romance a secret? did Julian and Sheridan's parents love each other? or what TC Russell's first two names are??? But for those new fans...once you read this book...you will have to tune in to PASSIONS five days a week to see what's happening to everyone in Harmony 20 years later! I read it in a weekend. No true PASSIONS fan can be without it. The added bonus to Tabby's memoirs? Timmy's hysterical comments! This is probably the only book that you can read comments written by a real living doll!

Summary: A Great Book!
Review: This is a great book. I have been watching Passions since it began and this book is a great way to get the backgrounds on each of the characters, especially Ivy and Sam's relationship and Julian and Eve's relationship.

Summary: If you love Passions, this book is a Must!
Review: Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down! In a matter of a few hours, I had completed the book and read it over and over again! If your a Passions fanatic, you have to get this book, its worth the money! It has very detailed stories of Ivy, Julian, Eve, TC, Grace, almost all the members of Harmony. I loved the past lives of Sheridan and Luis! All in all, I love this book, and hopefully, there will be more books to come! I would reccomend this book to any Passions fan or Passions fan to be! Once you've read this book, you'll get hooked!

Summary: For anyone who is a true Passions fan
Review: If you love the show Passions, you'll love this book. It's written in novel form, and it covers most of the major events which make up the backstory for the storylines now on the show. The main characters here are Sam Bennett, Ivy Winthrop (Crane), Julian Crane, and Eve Johnson (Russell), as the stories of their affairs make up the main plot. Grace Standish (Bennett) and T.C. Russell are featured briefly early on, but become more involved later as Sam and Eve meet and fall in love with them. Many other familiar faces pop up along the way, including Pilar Lopez-Fitzgerald, Martin Fitzgerald, Alistair Crane, Katherine Crane, Rebecca Osburn (Hotchkiss), Faith Standish, even Crystal Harris, the nightclub singer -- and of course, Tabitha Lenox and Timmy, as well as Fluffy! The only problem with the book is that it has almost nothing about the younger generation, like Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald, Sheridan Crane, and Ethan Crane (who have small parts) and Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald, Kay Bennett, and Whitney Russell (who aren't in it at all) - even though they MAY feature Chad Harris as a newborn - y'all know what I mean. I guess they're saving the other characters for Hidden Passions 2! Another good thing about the book are Timmy's hilarious footnotes (marked by Martimmy glasses) commenting on the storyline as well as making fun of Tabitha's writing. I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes Passions, it will change the way you look at the show.

Summary: LOVED IT
Review: I have never even watched the show Passions, I just stumbled across this book at Waldens and picked it up. I am not into the whole romance/soap thing, but I LOVED THIS BOOK. I couldn't put the book down. I liked the cute Timmy notes through out the book, it added a little humor. I would tell anyone who wants a great light read, to grab this one. I may even check out the show now.

Summary: Excellent
Review: this book is just as good as the show!
its one of the best books ive ever read,the only part i hate is when timmy adds his comments, this book is ONLY telling you what happened in the past of the passions tv show, like what was between sam and ivy, julian and eve, julian and tc, grace and faith, grace and sam, and louis and sheradon and their ancsestors,its still a very interesting book, once ive read it i couldnt let the book go

Review: Timmy here. Timmy wants to say that Hidden Passions is an amazing novel. Timmy thinks the best part are the martimmy notes. Timmy thinks it's an excellent read for the beach.

Summary: Writing is almost as bad as the show itself
Review: I used to be an avid Passions watcher, so when this book first came out I couldn't wait to read it. I've had it now for over a year and still not finished it. I find it really hard to get through it without laughing. I know that its SUPPOSED to be tongue-in-cheek, but its almost ridiculous. There isn't anything in the book that you don't already know if you watch the show. You get more "flowery" details, but actual facts are the same. I suppose if you want a good, mindless read then this is for you. If you absolutely HAVE to get it, then buy the paperback. You'll save yourself some money and they have added bonus chapters that aren't in the hardcover.
