A book
editor married to an author. That’s definitely a match made in heaven. Or is
it?
It’s pretty
bad when the guy you just married isn’t trying too hard to sit next to you on
the plane. The response Joanna got from
the rude passenger was classic! =D Now
Joan has to ride a whole 6 hours without her husband. Oh, pooh. But to make matters worse, the plane crashes
on a tropical island. Oh, pooh more.
So it seems
Joan becomes stranded, alone…..until she later realizes that she’s tuck with
Mr. Ogre, the rude passenger she was sitting next to. Classic! And the two bicker
and battle with each other with snarky and witty repartee, like Harrison Ford
and Anne Heche on 6 Days, 7 Nights. I
must admit that Joan adopting and trying to talk to a monkey was a little too
weird. Yeah, like the monkey can really understand you, lady! Ooh, Eeek, Eeek,
Ooh.
Throughout
the book, the two try to work together, collaborating (more or less) on ideas, for
survival. I mean, would you drink out of a condom if need be? It mostly
consisted of them fighting endlessly.
Overall,
this is another well-written work from Camilla Isley, but I wasn’t too
encapsulated by it. Certain areas lagged a bit, especially with the day-to-day
happenings of living on the island. This was okay for the most part, but not as
good as her other novel.
My rating: 3 stars
