Title: Does she have an editor???
Review: This is a question I have had for quite some time. Ms. Palmer has long been a favorite author, however, the older I grow, the more antiquated her dialogue becomes. Also, in book after book, continuity is a LARGE problem for Ms. Palmer. Does she forget what she has written from the day before? Also, is she so out of touch with today's youth that she truely thinks they still use words like "swell" and "dishy"? Come on, Diana, if you are going to continue to write, then please try to keep up with the jargon of today. I applaud the high moral standards she continues to give her heros and heroines, but just because you are a "throwback" to another time doesn't mean you will express yourself like a 50's television show. I agree with the request of another reader for Ms. Palmer to take a step back and look for the magic that she had when she wrote Amelia, Nora, and Diamond Spur. By the way, in case there is some confusion, Night Fever is a reprint from back in the early '90's.
Is the review positive or negative?
