A review by amreetkaur98
Suspects by Danielle Steel

1.0

This book was just terrible. I refuse to believe that any good reviews are authentic. Steel has absolutely zero sense about how to write with flavour or style- she literally just puts words on paper. She tells instead of showing, which is usually evidenced through cliched and overt dialogue. The characters are stereotypes of themselves with zero development, and high predictability. This is NOT a thriller, it is a romance novel where the older male hero saves his damsel in distress. In the first half of the book, nothing happens at all, like literally nothing. Then everything happens at once and way too fast in the middle, and then it goes back to absolutely nothing. The book just drags on so much and Steel repeats herself so many times. The whole time I was reading it I kept telling myself I would just wait for the good part, and it just never came. I finished the book and felt really sad that I had wasted so much of my time. Also found it strange that Steel mentions roast chicken about 5 times during the course of the book.
