More "Magic" from Danielle
I listen to every Danielle Steel novel, and she is prolific, I think this is her fourth one this year! MAGIC does not disappoint. It wouldn't be in my top 10 favourites of hers, but, as usual, it kept me interested and carried me away from my every day life.
The narrator was excellent. And Danielle gives us a flavour of different lives, around the globe this time, in Paris, Berlin, China, and India.

Not her best
Parts of the book were really good. The whole thing was pretty predictable and the ending wasn't anything special, there wasn't any "Magic". Usually I enjoy reading her books over and over, but not this one. The narrator did an excellent job!

Don't waste your money or a credit....
I was very disappointed in this book. There was no plot and zero surprises. All characters do exactly what you think they will do. The entire novel is written from third person so you never actually hear from the characters themselves. I would not waste money or a credit on this book again. I expected much more from Danielle Steel and an extremely disappointed in this book.
