The Denver Cereal Reviews


  • Debbie

    The book started ok, The characters are likeable Jill and Jacob. It did not take long for the book to get just stupid. Mike and Valerie secret 9 year marriage, what ever. These two family are intertwined but nobody know each other, stupid. The ending was horrible. If it is a wired way that they hope in by the rest of the books it did not work for me. Bad book

  • Cathleen

    This book was so much fun to read! I could not put it down. All the characters introduced in this first book were so funny, normal and/or quirky. They all had issues that everyone has dealt with at some point in their life. The author has such an engaging way of writing that you find yourself fully involved in the story. It is like a "Soap Opera" in book form but has a much better story. If this book was made into a TV series I would watch it.

    I became so involved with the "Cast" that I went to the "denvercereal.com" website and signed up to receive weekly updates. I discovered while I was browsing the site, there is a second book which I will purchase.

  • VLynch

    This book has a handful of great characters and a storyline that kept me interested and wanting more. I plan on looking for more books by Claudia Hall Christian as this book was a great enjoyment. I highly recommend this book for those who need a nice escape.

  • Deb

    Fun, light antics in Denver with local cameos too!

    The Denver Cereal by Claudia Hall Christian

    This is a tough one for me to review. On one hand, the main characters and stories are riveting. I am as in love with Jill and Jacob as they are with each other. But on the other hand, there are just too many characters and too many other half stories going on around them. It is really difficult to keep any of them straight. I love that the peripheral characters are there to help with future stories, but there is just too much information on each of them. It distracts from the main story without ever really adding to it. So now I just feel like I've missed even that basics for the series.

  • Angie

    Quick and easy read .

  • Megan

    Sometimes what you need more than anything else is just a Fairy Tale, Happily Ever After story and this book was exactly what I needed, exactly when I needed it.

  • Ariane

    I can never get enough of the characters in this book, start here and keep going. Live her books!

  • PepperP0t

    This book was so enjoyable, the characters felt like friends, the story engaging. I do plan to go on with the following installments. The only downside was the characters were so connected - no one was outside. It is also a quick read. I was looking for something to clear my mind between my normal diet of paranormal romance and found new characters to get involved with. This story is fun!

    Denver Cereal begins with our heroine, Jill, making a choice -- and it doesn't end the way she expects it to or wants it to. But the outcome is just what she needs as she sets off on a new beginning that is full of "unknown familiarity". The path isn't always clear and in the end Jill finds love and comfort for herself, love, comfort and security for her daughter and unwittingly brings her family closer. That ending doesn't mean that the path is all smooth - nor does it contain things so outrageously fantastic that you know you're reading.

    It sounds like your typical girl meets boy romance. And sounds - like looks can be deceiving. This characters are rich and full - they have distinct personalities and at least some of them could be people you know.

  • Brian

    I enjoyed this book even though it has a bit dirtier then I had hoped and it really isn't a "Christian" story. This also the first book I have read by this author and if this book is any indication of her talents, I will read many more.

    In today's story, we meet Jill, an owner of a badly wounded heart from a divorce and wants to stop over but be very weary of love. She meets a man named Jacob, who has it bad for Jill. At this point the author weaves a delightful story with a host of wonderful characters that bring life to this book.

    The author has a good grasp of defining most characters and plot lines. Her descriptive is enjoyable along with character dialog.

    You should enjoy this book and richness of romance and life. I highly recommend. I'd have given it five stars but there are a few areas where the author wonders off and the reader is left guessing. And the ending is a little trouble to get to.

    This was pretty entertaining. With a cast of characters that rivals any soap opera. The story centers around Jill and her siblings and their antics. The story starts off and your along for the ride and let me tell you this story has multiple stories going on so pay attention!! It's plot might be a little convoluted but it works. I was never bored that is for sure. With psychics abounding and secrets between siblings (and there are a lot!) second chances, attempted murder, true love, and other interesting things you will have to keep you engaged.

  • Heather (Raevynemyst)

    I first read The Fey series which I thought was wonderful. Grammar is sometimes not the greatest, but it is one of the reasons that the price of the books are lower so they didn't spend too much money on editing (author explanation). The characters are delightful and the plot really pulls you in. Like the Fey series, I can't put them down and I became very involved with all their stories. This series is highly recommended.

  • Harper O'Connor

    I'm not sure what to think. It was hyped almost like a mystery and I got it free through my BookBub deal of the day... But it's more like a rambling half-assed romance. And I get that it's set in Denver, but the insistence on naming every street they drove on and buildings they went to just seemed like overkill. As if it were screaming, "Look! Look! I can prove it's Denver!"

  • Kaye

    I was really disappointed. I really liked this book in the beginning and couldn't put it down. Then too many storylines were introduced and it became very hard to follow. The series continues online at the Denver Cereal website. I started reading but have lost interest. Maybe I will start reading again later.

  • Maria D

    Enjoyable story, but convoluted with so many characters; it got confusing at times. Pretty good character development and plot; it felt like reading a soap opera. It's interesting how the story was improved by multiple people, yet the document maintained a fair amount of errors. Overall, a good read, and a free download.

  • Gates Watson

    I love the Denver cereal series - the characters are very likeable and very down to earth. From the first page of the first story I was captivated. A must read for all Claudia Hall Christian fans and those people who should be fans!

  • Chelsea

    Too many characters that are too closely linked with one another became confusing.
    Annoying characters, very predictable story line with the exception of the attack.
    So many spelling and grammar errors, glad it was free.

  • Claudia

    This is a serial fiction that I am working on and my first published work - hope you enjoy it!

  • Patty

    Excellent book. From the first page you get taken away right into the character's lives. You will enjoy this book.

  • Karen Davis

    Love the Denver Cereal Series!! There's 3 in this series...all of them are great. It kept my interest throughout all of them. I definitely don't want to give anything away...but it's a great read!

  • Michelle

    I am a bit confused at times but I have downloaded the next book
