Ilustration To Books Collected Short Stories

Some great stories. Liked Old Love (sentimental), Cheap at Half the Price (neat trick), The Perfect Murder (liked the twist), The Loophole (any day the people can get back some of their money from the government is a good one), The Steal (another good twist and a classic example of Archer's showing up the rude and unrefined), Christina Rosenthal (sad), Colonel Bullfrog (good yarn), Not For Sale (sentimental twist), A La Carte (Archer is also good at stories at people finding their niche and rising within it, e.g., his novel As The Crow Flies), and The Wine Taster (comeuppance again, although the bias is a bit annoying). Some of the others weren't so great, though (e.g., The Luncheon, which was sort of pointless, and Not the Real Thing, which seemed too unlikely even for fiction).

When I got across this book, I wasn't sure I was going to like it because in "Only time will tell" I started recognizing a lot of the twists and plots in other novels. I figured that the short stories were going to be all more or less the same. But I was on holidays in a small town in Spain, and the

I used to read a lot of Jeffrey Archer in my school and college days, and I remember liking his writing. Re-reading his books after all these years, I realize that he was a popular and a good writer. But not a great one. Twists, surprises, feel-good, poignant storylines - this is what made (and makes) his books readable, and sometimes unput-downable.But if you happen to dig a little deeper, especially by reading his works one after another, you come across the repetitive story idioms (e.g. see

With this book completed, I think I have fallen in love with short stories by Jeffrey Archer...

I remember liking this, but I don't think I'm tempted to read them again.[outdated reviews from the great purge of 2018]

I had read some of these before in other collections. Great stories - all with an odd twist at the end.
