Commentary Toward Books Take Two (Above the Line #2)

Filmmakers Chase Ryan and Keith Ellison have completed their first feature film, and Hollywood is buzzing with the news. In the wake of that excitement, the producers acquire rights to a novel that has all the ingredients they want for their next project. At the same time they cross paths with a well-connected player who introduces them to the right people, and suddenly every studio in town wants to talk to Chase and Keith. The producers' dreams are on the verge of coming true, but Chase's marriage is strained and Keith's daughter --- Andi Ellison --- is making questionable choices in her quest for stardom. The producers are gaining respect and are on the verge of truly changing culture through the power of film --- but is the change worth the cost?

Criticism Containing Books Take Two (Above the Line #2)

Even though I had more trouble staying focused on this book, I enjoyed it. Im seriously missing the Baxters. Only Luke played a small part in this one. Im still giving it 5 stars because Karen is an expert at creating stories. I am enjoying learning more about the movie business through this series.

I am not enjoying this series at all. There are too many unrelated storylines. I think the Bailey/Cody thing could have been in a different book as there is only the thin tie of Andi. It is once again predictable and frustrating to read as the little inconsistencies pop up. It is almost as if she doesn't pre-plan the story in anyway and just writes what pops into her head. I was bothered that no one "remembered" they knew Taz from Clear Creek High until the middle of this book. Cody and Bailey

I'm not sure if it is because I knew the characters better this time, but I liked this much better than I liked "Take One". I enjoyed the first one, but not as much as I did Karen's other books. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the series and had put off reading "Take Two". I'm glad I did and I picked up "Take Three" as soon as I finished. Maybe I identified with Kelly some, now that her character has been fleshed out more. My husband traveled a lot when my youngest son was little and I was

I keep hoping that her writing style goes back to her earlier books. I feel as if she is just pumping out books now and I don't really like them anymore.

One of the more powerful, gripping books Ive read from Kingsbury. Or maybe I just feel that way because of where I am in my life right now. Either way, Kingsbury has a way of reaching the reader in exactly the right way.On a side note, the editing could use some help - several continuity errors and other mistakes, such as You and Chase instead of You and Keith, were very distracting. I would love to proofread her manuscripts myself!!

I enjoyed Take One, book one in the Above the Line series. I plan to read the whole series. Take Two was well written and allows the reader into the heads of multiple characters. Following their feelings and their stories keeps the reader's interest. The Biblical themes are appreciated. I liked the insight into movie making and acting in Hollywood. Andi's predicament is likely common to many college students, however for a Christian audience, I feel this could be more G rated.
