Dude I get better character development in Paw Patrol than this book. Seriously, you’ll find an array of half developed characters who all sound the same and have the potential for more, but are cut off once it goes to the next chapter/ section. Pick up the book and check out how the chapters are divided and titled. Also what’s up with Arthur? He’s not even a smudge charming at the end of the book. While I appreciate the effort that went into writing this book, I think there are much better chick lit books out there that are worth reading instead.

I really loved this book, I can’t emphasize enough. It captures the realities of life’s aches and pains, ebbs and flows, laughter and tears but most importantly, it captures how good friendships are essential to get through all of those things. This is a different kind of love story, the story about love between friends. I ended this book with a sense of longing to be part of something as special as this little book club.
