    Wish I would have read the reviews first

    I found it hard to like any of the characters. I couldn't identify or root for any of them. There was little resolution at the end and it left me feeling dissapointed.

    recommended

    I was so fascinated with the book that I finished reading it for 11/2 days.I'm a married woman with children and should feel sorry for Pamela,the wife but surprisingly I was wishing the story will end with Jamie and teri together.Are you going to write a sequel of this as you ended the story kind of hanging?.

    Very enjoyable read... Refreshing ending

    This was a very great book, with something of a different ending. I would have loved to see it end differently, but not all books can be the ending that you are predicting. Once again Carole Matthews has written a fantasitic story that kept me reading for a few days on end just to see how everything turns out.

    very disappointing

    I was very disappointed in this book. The characters were selfish, shallow, and poorly written, and the plot was even more dull. When I was supposed to feel sympathy , or anything for that matter, for the characters I was just annoyed and didn't even want to finish the book. There are far better chick lit books out there, don't waste your time on this one.

    Let's Meet on Platform 8

    This book didn't really have much depth to the plot of the story, although the characters and their lives were written pretty well. I had a hard time trying to finish because it didn't keep me entertained enough. However, I am happy with the outcome at the end of the story. The one part that kept me entertained was when the two women characters end up meeting face to face ( I won't give it away).

    That's it?

    I'm a little put off by the whole affair business. This is mainly because every marriage in my family, except for my parents, has ended over an affair. I did enjoy the characters to a point, however, I was put off by Terri's character... Ok, so the whole thing made me sick and then the ending wa just an irritation, because it leaves it open. If you're going to write a book, finish it!

    Let's Meet on Platform 8

    This book took a while for me to finish. It started off pretty fast then it just remained stagnant, going back and forth thru his mistress Teri's emotions, his wife's emotions, and Jamie's (the husband) emotions. I couldn't really connect with any of the characters, for there really isn't a picturesque description and personality to any of them. Towards the end, I just wanted to see who the husband would end up with. But the last part of the story was disappointing. Is there a sequel to this novel or what? I thought it could have been written better than it was.

    Great romantic triangle

    While rushing to catch the 6:07 from London on Platform 8, Jamie Duncan cannonballs through Teri Carter. Instead of continuing his mad dash, Jamie stops to help Teri by bandaging her scraped knee, giving her new stockings to replace the ones he ruined, allows her to place her feet on his lap, and finally takes her home. Teri thinks she has finally found a sensitive charming soulmate................................... However, Teri learns there is one obstacle to her having a permanent relationship with her dream. He is married to a nice woman. Though Jamie wonders if that is all there is, Teri has doubts about braking up a marriage although she believes he is Mr. Right..................................... This is an interesting chick lit tale that stars several perceptive nice people stuck in a commuter triangle. The story line is terrific when it emphasizes relationships (the good, the bad, and the boring) to include that of Teri¿s best friend. The story slows down when the tale delves into the specifics of the commute as it seems to target Londoners. When the plot digs deep into the feelings of real people, LET¿S MEET ON PLATFORM 8 is fabulous as the lead couple, his wife, and her pal make for a strong character study that provides multiple perspectives................................................. Harri et Klausner
