Christine has survived a divorce. Her
job is going well, but a birthday is approaching. Wanting to do
something special, her friends and family decide to track down her
close friends from the past. The ladies come to the birthday party,
and we hear their life stories. Christine is now close with her old
friends again.
I didn't enjoy this book. The
characters are not highly developed. We hear their stories, but we
don't really care about them. The plot is about friendship and is
very slow moving. I just couldn't get interested. Perhaps part of the
problem is that the book is a translation. It may be far more
interesting in German.
The German setting is interesting. It's
fun to see how similar and also different experiences in other
countries are. I enjoyed that part of the novel. I can't really
recommend this book unless you're interested in the stability of
friendships over time.
I reviewed this book as part of the Amazon Vine Program.
