Sunday Potluck Club by Melissa Storm
2.0
Thank you to NetGalley for a chance to preread & review The Sunday Potluck Club.
Unfortunately, this series just isn't for me. From the description I was expecting the women to meet, have their Sunday Potluck Club, chat about their week/lives & expected the story to move on from there. The book starts off as they are heading to the last of 3 funerals (they met at the hospital cafeteria as their parents were suffering from cancer). Bridget, is hyper & acting as if life is fine (it was her moms funeral). From there the story goes on with frantic hustle & bustle, Amy whining about her life--returns to school to teach, yet her mother has been gone for months. Who has months off after a death? She immediately hones in on a quiet student, sends a note home, is in a car accident & oh yes! It's the students newly widowed father--whom she ends up inviting herself to their house & bringing dinner. So not appropriate on so many levels.
Read at your will, I'm sure most will like it, it's just not for me.
