Work a treat ;Read so much...whole - Tradução em português

Her books are a model for early-21st-century content - action unrelenting; novelty constant; moral and intellectual material uncomplicated. It sounds formulaic, even idiotic, but it works a treat. The books grip like a vice, you do not read so much as swallow whole. And if they are sometimes unsatisfying, this only augments their addictive appeal.
