Title: Silly
Review: Maybe it was all the hype around the expose of Nikki Gemmell as the author, but I had expected this book to be much better.I think the concept of the book was excellent, but Gemmell didn't appear to have the intelligence, erotic experience/imagination or skill as an author to deliver what could have been an intriguing book.The plot is not fully rounded and the characters lack depth - both plot and characters have potential but it is never achieved.A great book if you want an easy holiday read, but don't expect something confronting or groundbreaking - better to go for something like Hollywood Wives which doesn't pretend to be anything other than it is.I think it would have also been cleverer if she had, at some point, either linked back to, or acknowledged, the source of the plagarised title (Brian Ferry Album).My conclusion on reading book was just that it's silly. Nearly as silly as the staged 'discovery' of the author and her pointless disclaimer at the back.
