Zelda's Cut - By: Anon, 31 Oct 2007 
The first Phillippa Gregory novel I've read, but I'm not sure I'd read any more. Was completely engrossed for most of the book, but can't believe I bothered reading into the night for that ridiculous ending.
Zelda's Cut - By: a reader, 10 Nov 2006 
This book is nowhere near Philippa Gregory's usual standard. The idea is brilliant; creating an alter ego which takes over its creators & affects their lives, but it could've been done a lot better; much of it was not believable & the end left me saying, well what happened?? I love Philippa Gregory's historical books & The Little House but not this one!
Zelda's Cut - By: sharron tsierkezou, 05 Sep 2005 
This book had a lot of twists in it to keep you involved. It is not one ofGregory's best books, but it was nonetheless intriguing! The concept of bored housewife who was expecting the same monotony for the rest of her life should appeal to readers!
I found that i got very angry with the main character! But i kept reading to see if things would get any better! In short i was hooked!
Give it a go & see what you think? It's definitely light reading, but gets you a bit wound up!!
Kindest Regards
Can you handle it?? - By: , 15 Oct 2004 
Zelda's Cut was an erotic & hypnotic novel by this amazing writer. Very different form her more well known work such as The Queen's Fool or The other Boylen Girl. This book had my attention from beginning to end. With twists & turns you would never expect. Falll into the world of a struggling writer as she finds a side of herself she never even knew existed. Only take this journey if you can handle what she finds??
Bordering on the unbelievable - By: , 17 Jan 2003 
Zelda is the alter- ego of Isobel Latimer, a quiet & self-effacing author whose life revolves around her husband's ill health & their financial problems. By becoming Zelda, & breaking into rauchy romantic thrillers, as opposed to her serious work, she & her agent, Troy, begin a clandestine series of rendezvous' around the country, promoting Zelda's books, & at the same time, start having an affair. So far, so good. But then it careers off out of control, with episodes of cross-dressing, gender transformation, & exactly who is role playing Zelda whilst dressed in the erotic underwear becomes less predictable. The ending, which I won't spoil, stretches belief a bit too far for me on many fronts, but like alll Philippa Gregory's books, it's a very readable, if far fetched, novel.
