Helpful Score: 3

Castaways was a quick, fun read. I recommend reading it. I like Keene but his books don't have the suspense and thrill I like to get from books. Especially horror books. I keep on reading him though. The reference to current pop culture in this book make it fun. When I first read the book description I thought "Ugh, what a cheese bag rip off of the current show." I expected it to be very cheesy. Keene manages to avoid the cheese while capturing the "reality" of "reality" TV in a work that is not real :-) Hmm...I think I just managed to really cheese up my own review. Ah well. Pick it up if for nothing more than a book that is easy to read while commuting, waiting in the doctors office or when you are avoiding sex with your SO. :-)
