Remembrance danielle steel synopsis5/26/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() However, tropes are simply tropes and, as my ratings of these books show, you can do those tropes well or very badly. These four books all had very similar themes and drama tropes, especially when it came to romance, death, and marriage. Usually this is when I say whether I would read more of her books, but my honest answer is, I don’t know. One one star, one two stars, one three stars, one four stars. I ended up giving this two out of five stars.Īs you can tell, my ratings were all over the place with Danielle Steel’s books. I would understand if this was a first draft, but not a final, published work. It was like Steel had a great idea for a story and just regurgitated it as a summarized outline. I wanted to get into the characters and the spy missions, but everything is brushed over with shallow summaries. ![]() I liked the plot, but since the story covers like sixty years and is only 288 pages, the entire story feels summed up and is about 80% telling not showing (and I’m also person who complains about too much flowery language usually, so this is saying a lot). It follows a young English woman who works as a spy for over thirty years, during WWII and after. I mostly read this book because of the gorgeous cover. At this point I went back and finished Remembrance, spurred on because of my mostly enjoyment of the two previous books and then I read the most recent release of these four, Spy, published in 2019. ![]()
