Review of Cynthia and Dan
Posted: 31 Dec 2021, 10:08
[Following is a volunteer review of "Cynthia and Dan" by Dorothy May Mercer.]
Before I started the book, I had the notion that it was a Sci-Fi Romance & Suspense novel. Then about five chapters in, it all switched to some kind if sex education thing and i was like "that's not right? ". But it all went back on track so it's all good.
That being said, here's my take.
First, there were a lot of loopholes which thankfully was addressed by the end of the book but still left unanswered. Like how Larry the terrorist got away after the attempted attack on the president and was never mentioned again throughout the rest of the book. Or how Cynthia never confronted Dan about him being a stalker. Or how Cynthia didn't let Sky know about her miscarriage, or maybe she did and we never got to find out.
Second, I felt like their supposed victory against the terrorist was way too easy. Like how there wasn't any mention of a counterattack from the enemies. Surely, the enemies must have known someone was on to them. It all just felt too good to be true. I get that it was a cyber war and both Tim and Garther were geniuses but still........
Anyways, I still think it's a good book and would definitely recommend it. Despite it being a romantic suspense novel, it still managed to have a little bit of comedy. I'd rate it a 3 out of 4. It's definitely a book worth reading.
