What readers think of Southern Cross, plus links to write your own review.

I like Cornwell's Scarpetta books, but I've read so many of them now that I'm beginning to feel I know the pattern. This is something totally different. I loved the characters, especially the cat :)

As usual I enjoyed the book. I have yet to read a Cornwell book that I have not enjoyed. I liked the humor of the animals and the characters. They are very lifelike and I would recommend the book to anyone.

Comedic satire? I usually don't have to be told when something's funny. Southern Cross is a real turkey; bizarre, bordering on the surreal. Take a tip from me... If you like Patricia Cornwell's novels, don't read Southern Cross... you may never pick up another one.

I was glad that this book was a Xmas gift and that I didn't spend the money on it. Almost as though Cornwell is trying to branch out and appeal to a whole new readership - I think it could be someone else sharing her name - not a good book.

I have read all of Particia Cornwell's books. I thought Southern Cross was very different from her usual writings, but I loved it none the less The new characters she introduces are sarcastic at times, but it breaks up some of the grusome details she offers about this murder. It's a great read!!

Different from Scarpetta books but parts are extremely funny. Loved it!

I have read and enjoyed all of Patricia Cornwell's books. Having read only 1/2 I cannot believe it is the same author. This is a terrible book. I paid top dollar for the hardcover but wish I could return it for a credit. This is so unlike her writings. I almost hate to buy anymore of her books. Hopefully she will be able to read these comments and write like her previous books. Thank you for the opportunity.
