As a proud owner of every Danielle Steel novel ever written, I had read the poor reviews of "The Klone and I" but decided to give it a chance and ordered it nonetheless. I should have taken the advice of many readers and critics, and saved myself the expense and effort of having this book shipped across many thousand miles to me. How disappointing! I am only grateful that it was a fast read. The plot is so utterly ludicrous that it fails to be even the least bit entertaining, much less stimulating. Even the most dedicated, devoted, die-hard DS fans like myself would be much better off sitting this one out.
