Summary: Interesting and Informative
Comment: This was a good book about abuse to women, written by Danielle Steel. She not only tells a story of a woman (Madeline Hunter) who went from one physically abusive relationship, but into another which was more subtle... that of verbal and emotional abuse.
The great thing about this story is that it was not only a good fiction, but it also portrayed the facts and feeling of abusive relationships.
I found myself not only intrigued about the topic, but I also learned. I actually FELT the frustration that so many friends of loved ones of abuse people must feel. In doing so, DS has portrayed that she masterfully wrote a story that was not only entertaining, but also informative.
It was a little on the long side, but I think that was intentional to show just how difficult it is for an abused person to leave and how long the process for a victim to leave really is.
Journey was a wonderful, entertaining, and entirely informative story.

Summary: Not her best
Comment: Journey follows the life of Madeline Hunter, successful TV anchor and wife of successful media mogal Jack Hunter. The perfect life that the two present to the world is not all that it appears to be. Maddy is haunted by the abusive past that Jack rescued her from. Jack is the attentive husband, taking care of Maddy's every need, but a dark side to that TLC is beginning to emerge. New friendships, job changes, and the couples access to the powerful in Washington, D.C set in motion an awakening in Maddy, that her charmed life may come at too high a price. The plot is quickly paced, but the characters are sometimes painted with too broad a brush. There isn't the emotional attachment you sometimes get while reading DS. Certain friends of mine roll their eyes when I say I am reading a Danielle Steel book. I admit it, I like her books, find her style easy to read, and her plotlines are usually character driven and fast paced. This was not one of her best efforts.

Summary: You'll hate her husband!
Comment: Not Steel's best works, but a poignant story. What kept me reading with enthusiasm was hating the husband & wanting to see him get what he deserved! I think the story meant well, but it just didn't seem to mesh for me. If you're looking for something good by Steel, I'd recommend Message from Nam, No Greater Love, Safe Harbour or The Long Road Home- They're all about over-coming & surviving.
