3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Almost Paradise, Nov 10 2001
By Jeanne Anderson (Swartz Creek, MI United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Lily White (Mass Market Paperback)
After reading Almost Paradise, I wanted to read more of Susan Isaacs right away. Lily White was the first book I chose. It really was hard for me to get through this one. It dealt with way too much specifics on the law and such and not enough on developing the charachters like she did in Almost Paradise.

I made myself finish it, but was disappointed. It just didn't do that much for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, Jun 17 2001
By Born to Read (Eastern USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lily White (Mass Market Paperback)
This was my second Isaacs book. This and "After All These Years" are the best as far as I am concerned.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2 interesting, 2 heartbreaking, 2 books in 1, Jan 15 2001
By sassi214 (Arlington, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lily White (Mass Market Paperback)
I read Isaacs' Compromising Positions a fews years back and stumbled across Lily White in the library. (incidentally, i found Compromising to be excellent.) Lily has it all. Suspense, intrique, emotion, laughs. The first time I read this book, I read it like it's written, starting with Lee White as a lawyer who is handling an interesting case while ex-DA office coworkers give her dirty looks for going to "bat for the bad guys". All the goings on of looking into the lives of some very strange people who will con their way out of a paper bag. This storyline gets swapped back and forth every chapter with Lee's parent's marriage, her childhood, her marriage (and ultimately it's demise), leading up to the moment she finds herself secure enough to live a happy-ending life. The style of this book was different and Isaacs takes care to not make it confusing to the reader. Her words are intelligent and the story kept me going til I put it down. A while after I read it through the first time, I picked it up and read every other chapter to follow that story, then went back and read all the opposite chapters. Different tone, but just as delicious. You get more for your money with Lily White.
