Summary: Not likely
Comment: Over the years of my reading, I have usually avoided the fiction route. This, because it seems that the plots often developed are not realistic. This, I found, to be especially true in Dangerous to Know. When I got to the end I could only conclude that Ms. Bradford has been watching to many soap operas. While there may be some confused families on planet earth,it is hard to imagine any group like she described. The turns and twists, for me, just didn't seem likely. Add to all of this the fact that she portrayed adultry and fornication as being somehow normal; this may have enhanced the story line but did little to enhance her image in one reader's mind. It is fair to say that writers seldom endorse, in their work, things they do not believe to be true. This, in turn, tends to say that the author's perspective on morality is expressed in the characters she has created, the things they say and do. Now, having read this work(actually heard this via tape from Books on Tape), I doubt I will ever be encouraged to again engage my mind with things from Ms. Bradford. I don't like to waste my time, which is to valuable to spend on something like this which doesn't pay any educational nor emotional dividends. She may have great writing skill but her themes are questionable.

Summary: A BIT SLOW
Comment: Even though I am no a big fan of this author I did find this book to be very entertaining even though I threw it against the wall of my prison cell many times. But Over all it was a good read. In prison there aren't a lot of good things to read. Heck I even told my mother about it and she had a tough time reading through it. But in the end she liked it too.

Summary: Absolutely Terrible!!!
Comment: This has to be the worst book I have ever read and I'm seriously not kidding either. It was boring with uninteresting characters. I kept reading thinking that it would get better and neatly come together at the end, but it never did. The bizarre, disturbing ending stamped it as the worst book ever for me. I never read a Bradford novel before and certainly expected something better than this. Don't even ask me how I was able to get through it, but somehow I did!
