Explanation Conducive To Books Single White Female

Imitation is the deadliest form of flattery . . .

After a messy break-up, Allie Jones finds herself living alone in her New York City apartment, no one to share her bed with-and more urgently, no one to share her rent. The solution seems clear: she needs a roommate. And Hedra Carlson seems perfect-she's shy, quiet...safe. But soon Hedra's disturbing envy of Allie's looks and social life becomes unsettling. She wears Allie's clothes, even buys a wig in Allie's color and style. Then the obscene phone calls begin, Allie's credit cards vanish, and she discovers Hedra is living a dangerous double life . . . and far worse. For Hedra's twisted admiration has no limits, the nightmare has just begun, and there will be a bloody price to pay.

Write-Up Out Of Books Single White Female

nice to learn.............

When Allie Jones suddenly finds herself in need of a roommate, she meets Hedra. Hedra is timid at first but she and Allie become friends and Hedra shows her true colors...I remember when the movie version of Single White Female came out, although I was too young to be interested. I've read a couple John Lutz books before so I was ready for this when I found it on the cheap.When you look for a roommate, try not to find one that's a psychopathic chameleon. I knew the bare bones of the plot but it

Extremely rare case where the movie is better than the book. I never thought I would say a movie delved more into the characters than the book. Comparisons aside, this is one of the worst novels I have ever read. You can get more characterization from paper dolls. Not one character was likable. I found myself waiting for a cohesive story but all I got was a bunch mumblings about the strange people in New York. I was expecting a decent psychological thriller but what I got was Bonfire of the

I liked it.It kept me reading late into the night. I thought I had solved the mystery but Lutz spun the story again and surprised me. Good proofreading and editing. A well constructed book with a very believable plot. It took me two days to read it only because I had to go to work; i'd have preferred to read it in one great gulp.

I just couldn't get into. The way the dialogue the roommate uses was ok to watch during the movie but to read it was just aggravating and to be honest plain boring got on my nerves.

The book is so distinctly different in tone and direction than the film that you might as well consider them separate entities that just happen to share some character names. This is not necessarily a bad thing though as the book takes a more restrained, slow burn approach to the suspense and tension between Allie and Hedra that I think worked well for a rainy day when you just want a moody book that doesn't rush itself. Some characters are developed better than the film and behave in ways that

My friend recommended and it has amazing story-line and suspense
