Romance PEARL RULE # 7 (p72) Rating: 2* of five The Publisher Says: Addie Downs and Valerie Adler were eight when they first met and decided to be best friends forever. But, in the wake of tragedy and betrayal during their teenage years, everything changed. Val went on to fame and fortune. Addie stayed behind in their small Midwestern town. Destiny, however, had more in store for these two. And when, twenty-five years later, Val shows up at Addie’s front door with blood on her coat and terror on her face, it is the beginning of a wild adventure for two women joined by love and history who find strength together that they could not find alone. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I POSSESS A HARDCOVER OF THIS BOOK. I DON'T ANYMORE. LITTLE FREE LIBRARY HO! My Review: Chick-lit is never going to be aimed at me, and it shouldn't be. I have no idea why, however, this tediously predictable, barely-serviceably-written story of emotional manipulation and abusive behavior is considered good. When Valerie abandoned Addie after manpiulating her into a situation that guarantees she will encounter serious legal trouble, and that Valerie knew was going to do so, I bailed. Not for me.
Weiner's latest novel is already wedged into a special bookcase with the other books I reread every so often just because they make me happy With its girl-on-the-lam main characters, "BFF" has less comfortable warmth than some of Weiner's previous works, but enough to keep me pleasantly looking forward to book 8. The book leaves you feeling as though Weiner thought her first draft was too long so she highlighted random chunks of detail and hit the delete button. There are conclusions that seem unnatural and poorly developed secondary characters, such as police officers investigating the case who seem unnecessary. While Weiner's writing has heart, it falls flat and doesn't measure up to her previous works. She can do better. Much better. Best Friends Forever is a delightful, emotional novel that's perfect for summer poolside reading. This is chick lit at its finest and lightest, but with just enough heart to make it come alive. Best Friends Forever is a frothy treat. It's another superlative novel by Weiner, about a big girl with a bigger heart, that will have women and men of all sizes cheering. Menzioni
