A review by brendaclay
Next to Love by Ellen Feldman

4.0

In a small Massachusetts town in 1943, three best friends marry three men who are about to go off to war. By the end of the war, all of their lives are in pieces. This novel is about how they rebuild (or not) over the next two decades. I felt like Feldman tried to cover too much at times, which came off a little rushed (especially at the end), but this story is moving and engaging, and her writing is great.
