Negative Positive
Title: overly contrived plot & twists
Review: I'll read this author for a quick, cheap escape -- something good if one is locked up or needs an easily accessible, cheap read to pass the time for 30-mins or so...maybe a few hours, even. I won't fault you if you microwave some buttered popcorn and pop open a brew and read this book...But, I care little for this author's books on a deeper level. The plots and the twists & turns he uses come across to me as overly contrived and this is a big turn-off for me. When a plot development is written in order to create a bigger 'twist' at the sacrifice of naturalness and realness, this is badddddddd. For me, anyway.As soap operas have their place, so do these books, including 4 blind mice.
