Club Sandwich by Lisa Samson
4.0
I thought that the writing voice was engaging and the style good, and it's a bit refreshing to read a novel written as a memoir from a conservative woman's POV.
I liked it up until the end, when *SPOILERS*
*****************
*****************
her husband comes back and owns up to his crap, at which point her personal accountability goes down the drain and she suddenly stops owning up to her own mistakes. She mentions them after he apologizes like once, but they never have a candid conversation about what she was doing. Before that point I liked how they showed her mental process of wanting a relationship with Mitch but at least in theory not being okay with what she was doing. Also, the sum-up of what happened at the end was a bit much for me. The style changed, and it was like a movie in which the ending is voiced-over instead of shown.
Other than that I was a big fan.
