    PREDICTABLE

    I love Danielle Steele but this book was sort of boring. Her earlier books is what made me a fan. Maybe if she takes a break and stop writing so much, her future books won't be so predictable.

    Not what I was expecting

    This is the first Danielle Steel book I've ever read and judging from her reputation I was expecting more that what I got from this book. The characters were shallow and their actions were unrealistic. When I finish a book I usually feel like I'm losing a friend becuase I get so wrapped up in the characters. When I finished this book the only emotion I felt was disappointment. The characters were paired of in an unnatural manner and I did not feel connected. There was also a lot of unnecessary repetition that threw me off course when I would have to read back and make sure that there really was that much repetitiona dn I was not just loosing my mind. All in all the idea behind the book was interesting, but it appeared to be hastily written with little thought about being believable.

    Another Great One by Danielle Steel

    I really liked this book. I stopped reading Danielle Steel for a while because I felt she was getting too predictable but after reading the Cottage I am going to start reading her again. I love her style and I thought the characters where perfect. The plot was predictable but the story kept me reading.

    A Very Boring Book

    Danielle Steel has written some good books, none really great, but at least somewhat interesting. This is not true of 'The Cottage'!! One of the most boring books I have ever read. Totally predictable.

    and then?

    It was a great book in my eyes except for the ending. It was too drawn out and overly explained in areas it should'nt. Alot of the book was repeatative and kind of made you loose interest. Being the time I read this it was fit for summer.

    Dull

    If you can get past the description of Cooper Winslow in the beginning without wanting to toss your cookies you're doing good. I used to be a fan of Danielle Steele's but lately it seems to me that she is just churning these books out without a whole lot of thought as to whether they are really good or not. Thumbs down from me on this one.

    page turner

    This was a good book. i would recommend it however i felt the book was lacking at the end... i was hoping for a little more. she gave a lot of detail in the begining and middle of the book maybe even TOO much and you would have thought that she would have finished it in that manner, however it was as if she got tired of writing at the end... however in all it was a good read

    One of the best in several years---

    I'm a true Danielle Steel fan--there is nothing that she has published that I haven't read. This book is not 'vintage Danielle Steel' quality but it is the best I've read in several years. Good story and interesting characters.

    Unbelivable

    i can't believe that this wonderful author would write such a bad story. It not even is worth one star. It's very bad. If you haven't read it, don't read it!

    Outstanding

    This is one of my favorite books written by Danielle Steel. I couldn't put this book down, I read it in two days. This is just an outstanding book. I loved this book so much i hated when it ended.

    Another one that is here to stay

    I have read the outtake that was on the internet and I can hardly wait until I can purchase this for my collection. I believe the title 'The Cottage' really puts a wonderful view of brightly blooming flowers, fresh air and green meadows into my mind.
