Summary: Great!
Comment: This book almost jumped off the shelf at the bookstore and into my arms. I immediately fell in love with the crazy adorable stuffed animal on the cover and knew this book had to join my collection. And I'm so glad it did.
Growing up in Southern California, we always heard rumors about underground tunnels to whisk the "bad people" away from Disneyland. At one point my brother tried convince me there was even a jail in the Magic Kingdom. I never believed him, until I read Dreamworld, that is!
"Dreamworld" exposes the underbelly of a huge theme park in Florida. Sylvia Avery's job at Dreamworld is to make sure that the public doesn't see any of the bad people, the drunks, disorderlies, etc. She simply whisks them away from sight! But when a suicide-murder takes place in the park, the reader is taken on a ride of a lifetime.
"Dreamworld" has murder, suspense, and plot twists. This book is hard to put down. I've already recommended it to many friends and will continue to do so.

Summary: art imitating life? goldman knows someone at disneyworld
Comment: the real reason i loved this book as much as i did was because jane goldman's descriptions of everything about dreamworld (from procedure, right down to uniforms and park layout) was complete walt disney world. she even mentions disney SEVERAL times in the book. also, her descriptions of the orlando/kissimee area are insanely accurate (disney world cast members *do* hang out at a bar on state road 192 called the big bamboo lounge). i enjoyed reading a novel that was basically ABOUT the place that i work. if you're looking for a taste of behind-the-scenes at disney world, read this book.

Summary: Bored me to death
Comment: Two of my greatest loves are amusement parks and mystery novels. So I had rather high hopes for this novel. Unfortunately, it was not interesting enough for me to actually finish it. The mystery felt extremely empty, and there were far too many times when the writing felt akin to an annoying co-worker's incessant babbling. I wound up skimming through to the end to see what was going to happen. Once I'd done that, I gave the book to my sister.
It's not often that I am unable to finish a book. But I just couldn't do it with this one.
