I'm an avid reader who takes pleasure in spending (too much) money on books. Catherine Coulter, being that she's one of my favorite authors, takes up a large amount of space in my book cabinet along with Julie Garwood, Tami Hoag, and Patricia Cornwell. However, I've noticed Ms. Coulter's losing a bit of her pizzaz when it comes to her more recent works.Before I read this book, although in honesty, I have yet to finish it, I was elated upon seeing that it would soon be in stores. I went to her website each and every day for the longest time, in hope that she'd post a preview as she always does. When I read about Ruth's adventure, I was excited and determined to purchase the book with all haste. Especially after witnessing the panic she was feeling. However, once I'd begun reading Point Blank, I realized she'd put everything she had into a powerful beginning and not so much into the rising action. To say in the least, I'm disappointed.I'm currently stuck, for lack of a better word, on chapter twenty-one because I've been straying from reading this book. Instead, I've enveloped myself in the wonderfully written novels Julie Garwood has provided. I hate admitting the fact that although Coulter started out as my favorite author with novels such as The Maze, The Edge, Riptide, Eleventh Hour, Blindside, and Blowout, Julie Garwood is beginning to pull ahead with her brilliant works.The dialogue in this book is so forced, along with the jokes and relationships. I took a bit of a peek ahead and witnessed a kiss between Ruth and Dix that was both expected yet unexpected. You see, he kissed her in a rather awkward moment. The dog had just wet himself (and her borrowed leather jacket) when Dix decides this is the time to kiss her. I'm sorry, but who does that?
