One of the best books ever written!

From the moment I read this book I was hooked. There is something so compelling about Cathy and Dev's story. The hard reality of rape is dealt with accurately but despite this the underlining love story grips you. I've been lucky in that I have managed to purchase all of Liz Berry's books and though Mel and the China Garden are good in their own right, nothing compares to Easy Connections and its equally wonderful sequel Easy Freedom. If you get the chance to read this book, you will never forget it. Liz Berry writes with such vividness that you can almost smell the paint and hear the rock music.

I can't believe it!

I can't believe that so many people from around the world have read and enjoyed this book. I read it about 10 years ago at school and found the mix down to earth characters and heady rock-and-roll lifestyle fantastic. I also read the sequel, and found it be of the same excellent standard. However, my favourite Liz Berry book has to be Mel. It is just a shame that they all seem to be out of print. These are books that I think every new generation should read.

One of my favourite books

My sisters and I discovered this book years ago and loved it. One of my sisters virtually knows it off by heart! The chemistry between Cathy, Dev and Chris just jumps off the page, it gave me shivers. I have never read a book that deals with rape in this way. Liz Berry has managed to portray the people and surroundings in the book so vividly, I feel that I can see the characters and even Cathy's paintings! I only recently discovered that there is a sequel. I haven't seen it anywhere but intend to hunt it down. I am lucky that I found a copy of Easy Connections on a library discard shelf.

On a worldwide search for this book and it's sequel

I found this book by accident. it was the first thing i grabbed off the library shelf just before closing time... It was amazing. I sat in my room until i finished it and couldn't have put it down if i wanted to. But after i'd returned it i couldn't find it again. I grew up with the rock'n'roll lifestyle whirling round me and studied art at school for four years, it was incredible to find a book that combined all these things from my life with the dark obsessions of love and lust and control. I've never forgotten it and continue my search till I own copies of these wonderful stories.

Easy Connections is my favourite book.

Liz Berry gives the reader an insight into the amazing world of rock and roll. She allows the reader to go into another world, one that is misunderstood, and often greatly exaggerated. She shows us what can happen when things get out of control. The characters are real and solid. They are to be admired for their uniqueness and Berry herself is to be congratulated on her astonishing and real account of a terrible, terribleinstance. I believe that this book should be a mandatory reading for students across the globe. Berry's courage to write such an accurate account of rape, love, hate and music makes her one of the most talented writers of the 20th century. Read it, and you'll see what I mean.
