### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A wanna-be but didn't make it
  

*by M***F on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2019*

Having seen the "Prime Suspect" series, I was quite taken with Lynda La Plante's writing, and after seeing the latest incarnation of "Widows," I thought this would be a great go-to book for more of the same. However, I was seriously disappointed. First, the writing was extremely shallow; there was not a single one of the characters with enough substance for me to care about. Second, La Plante would frequently shift her characters' points of view, even within the same paragraph, making the narrative confusing. Third, La Plante clearly never met a comma she deemed important, and so I'd have to read sentences sometimes two or three times before I could parse them out. And last, but absolutely not least, the author violated the first rule of fiction writing - show, don't tell. She didn't show me anything, instead explaining everyone's purpose, motive, thoughts, and feelings; clearly, imagination didn't factor into her equation. By all means see the movie (or either of the two miniseries), but don't waste your time on a book that only wastes your time.

    Be prepared for some of your own interpretations.
  

*by R***M on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2018*

This book was written in the 80s by an English author. The use of English slang and spelling is used throughout. Some of the slang I have not heard before so I may have interpreted the meaning incorrectly. Still a fun read. I have not seen the movie yet...and I will... but I get the impression from the trailers that the humor may have been omitted. Too bad.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Perfect!
  

*by L***W on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2018*

I started the book when the movie came out. What a great duo, different but with very poignant shared scenes. The book is hard to put down with a lot of fantastic characters, fun plot twists,a look at female relationships and a bit of a feminist joy ride. My friend wanted the women to be more heroic and vengeful, but I love how realistic and complex they are. Looking forward to reading more of her books.
