Review Detail

Reader reviewed by c-alexis

If you like short reviews.. this is it: I LOVED IT.
However, for those of you who like to know more...
When I first read the description.. I thought of a couple of movies... Hearbreakers (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and Lies My Mother Told Me (Hayden Panettiere). Movies and storylines that involve complex mother-daughter relationships where the mother decides to steal and shoplift as a way to support themselves. Like the two movies mentioned, I loved the novel. While touching upon the complexities of Danielle and her mother's relationship, it was also fun and witty. It teaches that sometimes doing the right thing may not be what we're taught to do our whole lives... but still.. there is that sense of loyalty to family. I found myself rooting for Danielle as she struggles with her own conscience and her wants in life.
Elizabeth Scott is quickly becoming one of my favourite authors; can't wait to read another one of her novels.
