After we read the book, (and the should-be-done-reading-by-now date should be available), we will discuss it. Thanks!! :)

I agreee... they're ALL the same!


message 44: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (cookiegurl) Well, now that I think about it... I read one of her books and liked it, and I read a couple more, and I realized that they all seem to have the same problem, and end the same. But oh well, she IS a really great writer, and we should be thankful for her :)


message 45: by Lena (new)

Lena (zhenglena) her plots are very good, but her characters are perfect. and she isn't very good at writing the point of view of an athiest


message 46: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (cookiegurl) True... I guess its that saying, "takes one to know one" right?


message 47: by Lena (last edited Aug 10, 2012 12:26PM) (new)

Lena (zhenglena) yeah sure.i mean, i think i can write the point of an athiest. she's more of playing guessing games. like oceans apart, it was just stupid. that wife michelle was so dumb that i just put the book down. all her characters she explains them as beautiful, head turning, stunning, gorgeous. it's just so annoying. they all basically have cornblue eyes and yada yada. and whenever her characters pray to God, he answers them RIGHT AWAY. like "dear God, help me"
my child, pray. daughter pray and i'm like UGH!


message 48: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (cookiegurl) I agree that it was kinda fake, and on the Oceans Apart front I also agree. She was really annoying. BUt I guess for some poeple her books were a blessing.


message 49: by Lena (new)

Lena (zhenglena) almost too much. she has a ton of books out and they are almost all alike. and have you noticed? most of the evil characters in her books are ugly, and the pretty ones are nice.


message 50: by Nicole (new)

Nicole (cookiegurl) Haha well, I guess then I'm a "bad guy" haha jk
