Book Reviews of The Front (Win Garano)
Book Review: Awful
Summary: 1 Stars
Once again, I was stupid enough to think that maybe she would write a decent book like she once did. Terrible.....It annoys me that I wasted even a second of my life on this. Entertainers need to understand that no one cares about their political views and I will make a point never to bother spending my money on her pathetic attempts at literature again.
Anyone who gives this book over one star (the minimum I could give) has apparently never read a good book. This book was bad.....bad.....bad.
Book Review: Thin story and book - s/b be called a novella or short story
Summary: 1 Stars
Very very disappointed. I've read the other low rated reviews and agree with every one of them, adding that to push this book as a novel is to do a disservice to all continuing great authers who turn out full length books with full fledged plots. I also will never buy another Patricia Cornwell book. I feel totally taken advantage of to put $$ in her coffers with no reciprocal value. So many other good books out there...do not waste your time or money on this.Book Review: Political vs Forensic Complexities
Summary: 2 Stars
Cornwell has turned her eye for detail to politics this time instead of forensic science. The Front definitely isn't one of Cornwell's better novels, any more than At Risk was. But it does do a good job of portraying the complex webs politicians will create for their own ends, using people and their pain as mere pawns. I just wish the characters and overall story had been developed as well as the layered political lies.Book Review: The Front
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought the story and characters were interesting, the end was somewhat thrown together. The big thing for me was that i have never seen so much white space (blank pages) in a book. In addition to blank pages, it's doubled spaced. If printed as a book would normally be printed it would be about a 100 page book instead of 300.
If Cornwell is tired of writing books, she should stop writing them.
Book Review: Do Not Subject Yourself To The Pain
Summary: 1 Stars
Seriously Patricia Cornwell, what was this? It would have been less traumatic if I had let a bear chew my leg off. Rubbish.
Why is it that this book focused on just about everything else but what the goal was: find out about "the front". The story wandered thousands of miles then stopped- and kept wandering. Spare your eyes the torturous journey.
