Review title: If Only It Were Written Well
Product review: The story's improbable premise had so much potential: The hero (Arthur) finds the very real looking "ghost" of a young woman (Lauren)who is actually across town in a coma. The doctors are ready to pull the plug and she asks Arthur's help in kidnapping her body so that she can stay alive.I purchased the book thinking that this might be another "Ghost" or "What Dreams May Come." It's not. The characters are flat; the dialogue is wooden; the story line approaches the absurd. (How many practicing architects do you know would be able to take an extended leave of absence whilst they (a) steal an ambulance and (b) con a hospital into releasing a patient who's been in a coma?)I give the book a star, because I believe it has potential to be a reasonably entertaining movie. It was as though the author had written the book with that thought in mind. Perhaps Spielberg can do something with it.
