It took me a while to get into this book and get used to the amount of dialogue and the writing style but it was worth sticking with it. I really enjoyed reading about friendship! A solid book club read!

5.0

I adored this book. I loved the close knit fictional 5 friendship group consisting of Jordan, Jordy (married after college), Craig the artist fraud, Naomi the rich superstar relations person and Marielle the glue that kept them together (who has a her daughter Mia). I got really into this story and took away the fact that we must tell people things, let nothing be unspoken! The way the chapters focused specially on each character and pieced things together was superb. The ending was perfect as well!
