corriejn's review against another edition

4.5

Nothing revolutionary in how various topics are handled or how storylines play out, but a very enjoyable read. Many characters but for the most part they manage to feel reasonably well-developed.

An easy 5 stars. 

Loved the setting, and every character had my heart. The way these ladies come together made my heart so full, this is what true friendship looks like. 

There were points where I thought it would get a bit slow, but just as I was thinking this it picked back up right away! 

Also highly recommend the audiobook, there were points when the English accent would slip a bit but it wasn’t too offensive.
