Reviews for Memories of Midnight

[henrimoreaux · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Superb!Memories of Midnight is the sequel to The Other Side of Midnight, written nearly two decades later. The events of this book take place in the late 1940s a little after the finish of Other Side, several main characters carry over - Christine Alexander aka Mrs Larry Douglas, Constantin Demiris the billionaire schemer and his wife Milena, and Napoleon Chotas the savvy lawyer. I read this cover to cover in one sitting. Whilst not as long as Other Side, the writing is silky smooth, the story a constant guessing game of who's doing what to whom (or about too) and that ending! Just when you think you have it all figured out... it's a completely different resolution and you can't help but smile as you close the back cover.I would definitely recommend reading The Other Side of Midnight first for a better understanding of the characters and events however Memories has enough background to stand on its own if you only have it.

Set in London and Greece, this is Sidney Sheldon's sequel to The Other Side of Midnight. Greek tycoon Constantin Demiris likes his revenge ice cold. Months after he had Catherine, his mistress, and the lover she betrayed him with executed, he decides to tie up loose ends by having everyone who can link him to the not entirely sucessful crime killed off. Catherine is currently suffering from amnesia and Constantin can't stop toying with her, as she is basically the only one who knows enough to sink the shipping magnate. I enjoyed this book but found it slightly farfetched. I give it a B+!

Wow. I used to love this authors books and since I've noticed I have a hard time falling asleep when I read a thriller I had to lay down the thriller and decided to pick this book to read.
(Well it did make me sleepy lol) I can see why i used to love these books but alas not anymore.
The story is so unrealistic it gets annoying.
well i still have a few books by this author (and I saved all my Dutch copies but I know now I can get rid of those)

Yeah. The plot changes even more rapidly than the characters' routine of shediing their clothes. Its like a stale veg fast food, that cant even give you a bad mouth. Worst book I ever read.
