jozola's Review of Martina Cole, The Business

Overall Rating
- Value for money

- FormatHardback
The business by Martina Cole has no plot, extremely repetative and i struggled to finish it, but did in case anything happened to get your teeth in to, however, nothing unpredictable did. Got The Take last year for Christmas and again was extremely disappointed, so repetative. Used to love Martina Cole's books. Up until the last 2, her books were fantastic. I think Martina Cole should stop writing books if she cant come up with books like she used to. It is quite an insult to her avid book readers and she is spoiling her reputation.

I agree with this review because...I have read all of Martina Coles book. The Business is the worst she has ever written! Shockingly bad.
I have been a huge fan of Martinas for years now, but her last couple of book have been dissapointing. The repetitiveness was so bad I almost threw the book across the room. Just how many times did we need to be told that Imelda was a bad person? That 'Kenny Boy ' was a feared and well respected face at the tender age of 14 was laughable. Also, just as a character got interesting ( Michael Hanlon, Jimmy Bailey) they disappeared! Its like she just didnt know what to do with this book.
This book had no substance. What has happened to her? I hope she sorts herself out and gives us the quality reads again like Dangerous Lady, Mauras game, two women, Lady killer and broken. Or does she think that because of her success she no longer has to try?
