Good story with great movie potential
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Just finished reading Side Effect. What a fast-paced, action- packed book! All I kept thinking was, "Wouldn't this make a great movie!" The ending was a surprise which leaves one thinking of a possible sequel. When's your next book coming out, Ms. Feder?
Thrilling plot twists, accurate pharmacological info.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Side Effect was probably one of the most thrilling books I have read this year, if not the most thrilling. The plot twists alone were enough to keep anyone interested, but the detailed information regarding pharmaceuticals and the daily activities at a pharmaceutical company serve to make the novel wholly believable as well -- and what's a thriller without a respectable level of accurate technical information? Though I do not often read thrillers, I was happy to make an exception in this case.On a hopeful side note, maybe they'll make the novel into a movie. I would suggest Rob Morrow (aka Joel Fleischman from "Northern Exposure") for the role of the protagonist, Grant.
Great read--kept me guessing to the end!

I couldn't put this book down--and I defy anyone to figure out who did what to whom before the author shows her hand! Side Effect is a fast-paced tale of scientific intrigue that gives the arm-chair sleuth plenty of mental exercise to go along with the heart-pounding suspense. It was just the right mix of plot/character development and action for me. And Feder's no-nonsense style painted very vivid visuals just begging to be translated to film!
Think before you swallow!!

I love a good mystery especially those dealing with medical themes. I also rely on daily medications to keep my chronic conditions under control. Ms. Feder not only kept me on the edge of my seat as I read her book but terrified me knowing that with the slightest twist of a "molecule", todays wonder drug might be tomorrow's biohazard.Intrigue, science, gunfire, raging hormones, and a great chase scene made SIDE EFFECT a really satisfying read. I was fortunate unough to meet the author at a book discussion and now know that great stuff can come from a small package!! Read the book; you'll love it!
I liked the effect of "Side Effect"!

What a great story! I got hooked after reading the first few pages. "Side Effect" has as many twists and turns and surprises as the best fiction I have read. The plot is totally original, and as I got deeper into the story I realized that this is the kind of thing that could be happening right now and we'd never know it! I found myself pulling for the main character, Grant, but my favorite character was Fred, a hired killer turned protector. Author Sandra Feder has crafted a real page-turner, with an ending that will leave everyone satisfied. I heartily recommend this book.
