Martina Cole, The Business Review

Overall Rating

I am a huge fan of Martina cole & have read all her books except Faces, but the Business is shockingly BAD, I felt the need to bang my head against a brick wall following mind numbing repetative character descriptions. The worst of it was the story line had huge potential to be good, but it felt like Martina thought up an outline for it & that is all she used the rest of the book was padded out with REPETATIVE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS. She introduced big characters who then just dissapeared with no mention again. The very worst of it is it ended up making no sense - once i finished the book (which was an achievement in itself) i had to read & re-read the prologue so many times to see if I were mis-reading something as it made no sense. Cannot believe this was even published. Did none of her publishers take the time to read her book. I think Martina was a Master at what she done - now though I think maybe she should have hung her hat whilst she was at the top.
