“She found it soothing to get caught up in a brightly colored, plastic world where all that mattered was how much you ate and exercised, where pain and anguish were suffered over no greater tragedy than push-ups, where people spoke intensely about calories and sobbed joyfully over lost kilos. And then they all lived happily, skinnily ever after.”
Told in third person, in alternating POV of Cecilia, Rachel and Tess. This is a story about secrets and how it affects the future of three families. The book tackles real life marriage issues and how each and every one deals with it and how it affects another family without you knowing it.
I found it a bit scattered. There were inner thoughts that I find unnecessary to the story. Lots of ramblings, frustrations, lives of friends not really relevant. I was confused at first about how the lives of the three women would link.
It was confusing, dragging, scattered, too much details yet it was interesting enough and it grabs the readers attention.
I found myself fast reading through most of the scenes but stop and devour it when it becomes interesting.
The turn of events was perfect and you would now guess until you've read it. There's an air of mystery and suspense to it.
The book left us with a lesson that we know very well - what goes around comes around.
The ending was a culmination of every secret they kept. I loved the epilogue though I wished it also included the other characters.
