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.

Having read other Jojo Moyes, I was ready for high emotions and strong female characters and man oh man do you get both. The way she describes raw emotion really pulls you in and you can’t help but feel as the characters do. Be prepared to feel every feeling there is and love every second.
