Advantages: -
Disadvantages: SAD

...His Bright Light by Danielle Steel was voted New York Times Best-seller, and I can see why, this book is a mother’s story about her son, it is a sad book where Danielle Steel describes her son’s s life. She re-calls his nineteen years, his battles throughout his life and at the end the death of her son.

Advantages: Damn good read
Disadvantages: None

...decision. It involves a lot of funny situations, some interesting bedroom antics and a lot of soul seerching. I've read a lot of Danielle Steel's book in the past and had a break of about six months. I picked this one up in a second hand shop and was glad that I did. As a busy mother of two I find it hard to find the time to read but I couldn't put this one down. It's funny, sexy, down-to-earth, and will have you wanting to read more of her books. I read this one in about five days, which for me is a record. I loved it so much that I told all my friends about it. If you like Danielle Steel you must read this one, if you've never read any of her books try this one first, you'll want to read more.... Read review
