Review title: Melodramatic
Product review: I didn't read the reviews until after I read the book, since I wanted to make up my own mind. I think Publishers Weekly hit it on the head in their review in which the reviewer called the book a sophomore effort that relied too heavily on canned lines and easy melodrama. If this kind of book sounds like something you'd be interested in, do yourself a favor and get it from the library.
