I hate Ginger. So many scenes where she was driving me nuts!

Everyone else is wonderful.

Very Big Little Lies, with more wealth, and more predictable ending. 

And why do we never find out what is up with Whitney!!!

Explores womens relationships with motherhood on a varied way.

Easy read, but the writing felt cheap.  I also would’ve liked the characters to be explored outside of their relationship status and children (or lack thereof). I love a story about mothers, but there wasn’t much more to the characters than that, and there was potential for there to be. I’m never one to predict the ending of a book, so the ending did take me by surprise. I liked the ending of the story, it tied together the different characters well. Overall, I would only really recommend this to someone who wants something easy to read. Was not for me.
