A review by saintgirl
The Hive by Gill Hornby

2.0

This book is supposedly about female friendships, when in reality I found little friendly behavior in the majority of it The characters lacked depth and when I found myself liking a character's storyline, it switched off to another's and left me bored reading about one of the other many boring characters. The idea of the story, as a whole, seemed to be a good one, but it was not done in a believable way, in my opinion. The character's behavior and conversations were ridiculous and I think it could have been accomplished in a much more enjoyable, organized way. I did like the irony of the title, as it was explained throughout the book, but overall, I just didn't enjoy this book.
