Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I actually had to force myself to finish this book. Then I had to put eye drops in my eyes because they were almost stuck because I rolled them up so many times. First this "author" needs to go find a few real SEALs to meet and do some more research. I personally know a couple of real life SEALs. They are quiet professionals and do not remotely act like the guys this author has in her book. I spent most of the book muttering about how bad the plot was and how it was almost Keystone Cop funny. When the SEALs rescue the heroine the author makes a statement about them filming the entire thing because they film all their missions anyway. ROFLOL Not hardly. Especially rescuing her in U.S waters. Sure they're gonna film themselves doing something highly illegal. NOT!! Was martial law declared in the book and I missed it? And further more that comment about them filming their missions being routine? Stupidest thing I ever read. Now do spec ops occasionally have helmet mounted cameras so the politicians can watch from their safe rooms in DC? Sure but that is not the norm. When I talked to one of my friends who happens to be SEAL and told him about some of the above and other things in this "book" all I can say is he laughed his butt off. Also, the redundancy of the words and phrases she used was very annoying. Yeah, yeah we know they are SEALs. Yeah, yeah we know SEALs don't leave SEALs behind etc. etc. see how repeating things is very annoying? Some advice to this author would be to research your subject matter better. Make it realistic so we, the readers, can slip on into the story better. And please, please work on your plots better. This one didn't make a whole lot of sense. Write about what the characters do and say. Make it believable not "he said then she said" then they did this or that. Write it like it's actually and don't be so choppy and put unbelievable things in your story. SPOILER.... If I think I'm being followed I'm not going to be stupid enough to walk alone at night after working late to catch a bus while whining to myself about how none of my coworkers offered me a ride. Has this character never heard of calling a cab? Asking a coworker for a ride or even better driving herself back and forth to work? The character had a car. Then if someone has just broken into my apartment I am not going to take time to open a window to a fire escape to trick the bad guy into thinking I got out then hide in the tub hoping I won't get caught. I then sure as heck am NOT going to get on my cell and call a guy I just met who is a SEAL and especially if I know he is away on an op knowing he can't help me and taking the chance the bad guy could hear me on the phone while he's searching my apartment. And how stupid was the bad guy to actually search her bathroom and go through her medicine cabinet all the while she's in the tub with the shower curtain partially open? ACK!! This is why this book is so bad. Then boom and we flash forward and the traitor FBI has her incognito in some cabin for protection yet she still has her cell phone? What's up with that? How did she get there. What's the deal? Huge gap in the plot. Then the "dialogue" (LOL ... Sorry but I actually laughed out loud over that) from the bad guy saying the same thing over and over. Calling her the same name. Etc. etc. etc. not to mention her over the top descriptions of how the bad guys cackled threw back their heads and laughed an evil laugh. Imagine the worst Hollywood over the top villain and you might come close to the author's poor attempt at writing about the bad guys. Sorry this review is choppy. I've been writing it while cooking dinner and going back and forth checking my food and writing this. Hey! Maybe this author wrote this book the same way. I won't be reading any of her other books.
