Minus one star for the epilogue (that I didn't read).Well, if anything, this is a page-turner. The reason I started reading it was the main plot - two people decide to kill themselves by drowning and meet up in the ocean while doing it. I actually find that very funny, so I had to read the book. I l...

Initial thoughts- REALLY hot, fun, sweet, but the angst was over the top, in my opinion.

3.5 StarsThis is hard to rate, and hard to describe. At the beginning, it seemed pretty juvenile. The characters act like insecure teenagers full of hormones and drugs. I actually put this one down for a couple of weeks because I lost interest after I realized where the plot was headed. However,...

Wow, this was an emotional roller coaster ride! I think I'm going to have to find more from this author because if this is any example, she creates great, tortured characters.

I'm a whore for British parlance and the banter in this one was a treat. Beyond that, the writing was crisp, the story engaging. The characters lugged a cortege of oversized baggage behind them. While this added a soul-sucking gravity to their identities, they didn't seem as shattered as they should...

I've read many books with suicidal characters, but usually only one of the protagonists is depressed while the other one helps the former heal. Strangers is the first book I've read where both the main characters are suicidal and it proves that two self-destructive individuals can rarely, if ever, h...

1 star for the first 30% of the book. 2.5 stars for the remaining story. 4 stars for the sexual creativity. 5 stars for the banter. Subtract one point for a few several ridiculous cliches. Don't even think about asking me to do the math on this one.I finally finished the book! Had I known it was goi...
