I couldn't give this book any stars because it was almost physically painful to read and I only finished it to finish it. You pretty much have to have the previous book to understand all the relationships/friendships between the characters, which is a bad sign.

I picked up this book in Peru because it was the only English book I could find. Started off great but about a third of the way through I realized that this is a book in a series. It kept talking about characters I had no idea who they were and kept wondering what was going on with a main character Janssen so I ended up being confused. I still finished the book but gave it three stars because I think it could have been a little bit more of a stand alone book.

Not bad ... not bad at all!

Just picked up the book. It looks like there are other books that needed to be read prior to reading this one. There was not enough character development for me.

First "trashy" novel I've read in years. But, it was fun. For the genre it was good, but I just can't bring myself to give books like these more than three stars.
