 Am I not smart enough?
Sometimes I will read a book and think that I am just not intelligent enough to "get" it. Do authors really think that people read fiction so they can pontificate on the meaning of every relationship in the world? This book made me feel like I missed why the main character was involved in this adventure. The characters were poorly developed and the dialogue was choppy. I could not understand what the shallow, but highly academic Selena could possibly see in Stan. Why would a person continue to dog a person on their looks and then suddenly have a need to sleep with them? I prefer books with a tidy ending, this left you hanging and wondering. There were a couple of funny moments (like Selena preparing to "jump"). I stayed up late to finish this book so I could return it to the library...quickly!
 A Page Turner
Loose Lips keeps you interested through the entire book and makes you ask if you really know the people you love. Also, it also makes you wonder what we will do and what we will become in the name of Country. I highly recommend this book to all those ladies out there!

This book is a blast. Maybe it gets serious, but I'm on page 54, and this is as good as WHAT ABOUT BOB.
 NOT SO HOT
Let me start off by writing that I am glad I checked the book out from the library and did not waste money buying Loose Lips. Not only is the book boring, but it is poorly written. The author clearly has some base knowledge of the CIA, but it is also quite conspicuous, as the novel progresses, that she either doesn't know much more about the CIA than their recruiting practices, or does not want to comprimise CIA information. I'm banking on the former as a result of the book's certain strained approach and intonations. ALSO: The main charachter is annoying and never conveys the abundant intellect the author continually insinuates she has. She is rather idotic and banal with the exception of knowing how to read Sanskirt (how cool). The love interests are gross and non of the characters mix well, nor are they believable. Why Cosmo deemed this a steamy read is beyond me. If you are looking for romance and action this is not the book. It is BOOORINNNG. You will get more info about the CIA from a wikipedia article. The author should stick to her day job and not dare write another novel.
WASTE OF MONEY!
I bought the book on tape. There was no story, no plot, and no real ending! It was all about lies, mistrust, and backstabing. It made the CIA look really bad. Don't waste your money!
