Summary: great book!
Comment: This was my first time reading Doris Mortman's book and I must say it was great from page 1! I never guessed the ending, wich is unusual for me. I am now looking for her other books! A very believable story!

Summary: Couldn't finish it.
Comment: After reading reviews of this book, I began reading with much anticipation. At first, I was not disappointed. This book had an excellent premise, and a very engrossing beginning. But approximately 100 pages into it, and it completely stalled and moved forward at a snail's pace. Essentially, nothing much happened during the next 100 pages. This author is far too wordy. She says in 5 pages what could be said in one. At first I appreciated the amount of detail, especially when describing the WITSEC program that Ricki went through. But after a while, I realized the author simply likes to go on and on about a subject, even when it's wiser to stop. I also found her writing pretty flat. I think it's very telling that the love scenes sparked not the slightest emotion in me. They were completely mechanical, which I think is this author's writing style. Instead of showing me how Max felt, the author told me. That just doesn't work with love scenes. Again, she provided detail where she should have provided evoked passion. I put this book down (and picked it back up again) at least 10 times in two days. I tried so hard to keep reading it, because I did want to know how the book ended, but it just couldn't keep my interest. Not sure if I'll bother with any other of this author's books. Perhaps there's not enough "wow" in her books for me.
Rating: 5
Summary: Rare pleasure
Comment: It is unfortunately an uncommon experience to find a compelling and utterly suspensful thriller with a well defined and believable heroine. "Out of Nowhere" is just such a thriller. It has a fascinating heroine and a real sense of danger to her. Her circumstances seem highly believable and, in this age of paranoia and terrorism, her inability to trust actually seems relatable. I don't want to rehash the plot in this review, but I do very much recommend this novel. It's engrossing.
