Going Home

Summary: One more comment on "Going Home"
Review: After I submitted my review, I noticed that the description informed us that the book actually was one of Ms. Steel's first books. I guess I could cut it a little bit of slack then. I still wouldn't recommend it to anyone, even for a quick read

Summary: No wander this was the first book by D.S.
Review: I actually was disappointed when I read this book, maybe it's cause I expected more. I've read many of her books and think they'll all great till Going Home came to my hands. It's much like other Steel's books but in this one nothing much happened, there was no this "excitement" when I read it.

Summary: A Wonderful Story
Review: I loved the book very much. I have been reading Steel's books that she has written lately(1999-2002). I had been told that her earlier books were so much better so I decided to read one of the them. The story was hard to read sometimes because I became exasperated with Gillian letting a man treat her so badly. I kept waiting for her to turn on him and give him what he deserved. But, she hung in there in spite of his treatment towards her and she was happy. The ending was sad but moving.

Summary: Loved it
Review: I loved this story. I thought that she had excellent writing- starting with her first novel, Going Home. I just absolutely loved the story & the characters. Other earlier works of hers I enjoyed were: Season of Passion, The Promise, Passions Promise, Once in a Lifetime, Loving & Now & Forever.

Summary: Typical Danielle Steel material
Review: I was in dire need of reading material and borrowed the book from my mother. I hadn't read a Danielle Steel book in years and now I remember why. There comes a time when an author should realize that the "gift" is gone. Retirement is better than totally discrediting yourself. Shame on the publishers for even printing this

Rating:
Summary: Mediocre at best.
Review: I've read many Danielle Steel books, and thought that this book would be just as good as some that came after it. While I wish I could say this was a great first novel, it wasn't. The story is so boring that after a while you can't even pay attention to what goes on. You don't feel that you know the characters (protagonist especially) as well as you know the characters in the other books. Also, the slangs and dialogue are so outdated that it's distracting. Read other Danielle Steel books, but not this one.

Summary: Danielle Steel Wrote This?
Review: It's hard to believe that Danielle Steel wrote this novel, but I guess first novels can be that way. The storyline is so boring, and you don't connect with the characters like with her other novels. The sotry reads like it was written by a teenager and suspends believe in any of the plot. If this would have been the first book I read by Steel, I wouldn't have bothered reading any of her others---that's how bad this novel was. Skip it!
