I don’t really have any feelings towards what I read. It was too short to like or dislike characters and I’m not one to ‘connect’ or find the deeper meaning within books.

This is a short story about an instant friendship between two women and a lesson about learning to love yourself.

Lucy and Elle meet in a bathroom while one is at a recently divorced single ladies event and the other is at a work function. They hit it off and are fast friends.

The story is fast-paced and engaging. I enjoyed it. An Amazon First Reads bonus read worth grabbing.

It was okay. Not my favorite Jane Green book, but it was obviously a quick/easy read.

This short story by Amazon First Reads didn't ring true to me. The character development was weak, the storyline was predictable, and the writing was meh.

It was okay as a read before bed and I am grateful it was free.
