"View to a Kill-ish": We Review the Reviews of "Delusion in Death"
Listen now
Description
This week, we are reviewing the reviews of “Delusion in Death,” and there were so many bad reviews of this one, especially three 1-Star reviews all from men. The first one is especially bad when this man says: “One of THE MOST PAINFUL BOOKS in all of eternity…The story – depressing. The character – disgusting. The author – revolting.” The next 1-Star review says: “Everyone that exists in this book are smug pricks,” and the one after that says: “cannot survive outside the readership of a police community, far less outside the United States of America.” (Who’s going to tell him that this book was a best seller not only in the U.S., but all around the world.) There was also one reviewer who didn’t like this book because they thought the plot was too close to the James Bond movie: “A View to a Kill.” Spoiler Alert: It’s not. At ALL. Other comments include: “just tired of hearing about them ad nauseum. If I were Roarke, I think I’d check out.” “I couldn’t get past the second chapter.” “The futuristic setting is nothing but a gimmick: ‘Links and Blinks and Rinky-Dinks…” “What I am finding distasteful is that she is more and more adding God’s name in vain and the F bomb.” “It started going downhill when you switched to hardcover” “Adult comic book – – bad” By contrast, there were some very thoughtful good reviews on this book too. “I suddenly started shipping Nadine & Kyung. I don’t know why, I just did.” “Spending time with Eve and Roarke always puts my in my happy place!” “Even if you don’t want to be seen with a romance, I swear pick it up on Kindle or Audible and try one! You’ll be hooked!” “I would recommend the series and plan to keep reading it for now. It is still entertaining which is what really counts.” “A Must Read!” “I am lovin’ it !!!” “Damn good story!”
