FARM FATALE / Review
From the Publisher:
A witty, beloved novel of heart and heartland, Farm Fatale skewers the culture clash of city vs. country in the snappy, observant style that made Wendy Holden famous.
Cash-strapped Rosie and her boyfriend Mark are city folk longing for a country cottage. Rampant nouveaux riches Samantha and Guy are also searching for rustic bliss—in the biggest mansion money can buy. The village of Eight Mile Bottom seems quiet enough, despite a nosy postman, a reclusive rock star, a glamorous Bond Girl, and a ghost with a knife in its back. But there are unexpected thrills in the hills, and Rosie is rapidly discovering that country life isn’t so simple after all.
My Review:
I’m really late posting this review, and for that,
I apologize sincerely to Sourcebooks…
…It’s just that I was trying to come up with some witty
banter with a positive slant.
Sorry – I just couldn’t do it.
The book description made it sound like so much fun…
…and maybe the fun is in there somewhere, but honestly, between
“F”ing this! and “F”ing that! I couldn’t find it!
No need for the foul language…just potty mouthing on and on.
Maybe people really do talk like this, but not in my circles.
Do writers these days, have mothers who read their work?
Another one bites the dust, and is heading to my local library,
should anyone wish to check it out.
