Book Reviews of Out of LoveBook Review: Most touching book I have read in a long time! Summary: 5 StarsThis book is so touching and realistic. I love this writer's style of writing. You will be drawn to this book the minute you start. I read this whole book in one day by accident because I just couldn't put it down. It is very suspenseful and detailed. This is a must in any woman's library to have. I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
Book Review: Nice story, great sex Summary: 4 StarsThe main characters took a little time to gel for me, but by the middle of the book, I could see them more fully realized. Carmen was fully fleshed out and was an attractive character. Judith took a bit for me to warm to, but her personality was slower to emerge. The love story was good and their sex scenes were delightful. Like some other reviewers, I also wanted more closure to the ending. It was just too abrupt for me. But I enjoyed the book, nonetheless.

Book Review: Not enough umph! Summary: 2 StarsOut of Love left me a little cold. There wasn't enough meat there in terms of plot...very little actually happens, and while the author is trying to develop the characters by providing many boring day-to-day details of their lives, it ends up being just plain...boring. The two main characters also "fall in love" too fast. Initially they are intrigued and curious about each other and then too quickly realize they're in love. The relationship between Carmen and her best friend Brooke was annoying. Brooke is a weak person who is always crying to Carmen about her marriage woes. She gives nothing back to Carmen and yet Carmen has somehow secretly been in love with this selfish, one-dimensional woman for years. So this part didn't ring true without a lot more development of their relationship. Overall, the book was predictable and a little on the boring side, although the writing style is decent and the humor is better than average.
Book Review: Captivating and fun Summary: 5 StarsThe mark of a professional writer is that each book is better than the last. KG McGregor has, in my opinion, consistently grown as a storyteller. It's always nice to read a book that's cleanly written, with just enough twists and turns to keep you guessing, but not so many that you lose your way.
KG has created fun, interesting and thoughtful characters who pull you into the story. The women are adults in every way. They know who they are and what they want. They may be thwarted sometimes, but not because of wishy-washy personalities or fake conflicts. These people try to live their lives honorably and honestly, and, in my view, that's relatively rare in a lot of fiction.
I got six solid hours of pleasure from reading this book, and, since it cost about a much as a first-run movie, that's quite a bargain. And I can read it again without anyone noisily eating popcorn next to me.
So, I not only recommend the book, I recommend skipping the next big-budget, plot-starved action movie and diving into this well-crafted tale. You'll definitely get your money's worth.
