I got this one from the library, but had to return it unread. I’m not sure i”ll try to get it again — sounds like it’s good, but not amazing?

I really liked this book but I can totally see your disagreements with it. I think, at first, the voices held much more for me and then they all seemed to blend together.

It’s interesting to me how many books are written about life-long female friends. Definitely a recurring theme. And it must say something (maybe about my selective memory) that the books I can recall about male friends are mostly about them getting into trouble or doing something criminal together.

I haven’t read the book, but that doesn’t really sound like much in the way of dirt. Unless they were somehow involved in the suicide, I can’t see what effect it would have.

This book has been on my to-be-read list for a while, but reading your thoughts on the book makes me think that I won’t miss much by not reading it. I think I would likewise get annoyed at characters always quoting poetry/Latin. Its a pet peeve of mine too.

I have Wednesday Sisters here in audio (I think in audio) and haven’t gotten around to it. Although I haven’t read The Four Ms Bradwells, I agree with your assessment of the “dirt” — how is this horrible for someone’s political career?

I am in total agreement with your review. It sounds awful but I’m glad you mentioned your issues because I felt as if I were the only one that had that problem!

I just won this book and am excited about reading it. Though you had some problems with it, it sounds like it was a somewhat entertaining read. Great review!

I have the same struggles at times when there are more than two or three narrators. Sounds like an intriguing book, though, so I’ll have to check it out!

I’ll have to try to remember to pay particular attention to the changing narrator when I read this book.
