Chargement... Vacationpar Jane Green
Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.  genthebookworm | Dec 19, 2020 |   For the most part, I merely like Ms. Greens' writing. It keeps me reading and amused. Nothing earth-shattering about any of her books -just good, reliable, dependable, and entertaining reading. And this novella is no different! It is an amusing story of a woman who gets to that part of her life where she just starts questioning almost everything. Most of us have been at that point one time or another. The big thing she is questioning is her husband, and because of that, they decide to take a little vacation from their marriage. Now the husband is questioning their marriage but in a good way. There is a small issue at the end where we seem to skip a few steps, but nothing major. I also have an issue with British writer's not doing their homework when writing a book set in the United States and using BritSpeak in place of Americanisms. All in all, an excellent novella that is heartwarming, amusing, and just perfect when you need a quick read. *ARC supplied by the publisher.

Just when she'd sworn off men for good, Sarah Evans met Eddie. Sarah was a magazine editor, living in Manhattan, and loving her lifeâ??except for the heartbreaks. A successful real estate developer, Eddie was a breath of fresh air, a meeting of mindsâ??and bodies. Soon came wedded bliss, baby number oneâ??and the proverbial move to the suburbs . . . You just sit there like a slob while I do all the work. Nine years later, this is increasingly what goes through Sarah's mind when she looks at Evan, propped in front of the TV with a beer, ignoring their two children. The truth is, she misses her old life. She misses the old Eddie. She can't help wondering if she'd be happier alone . . . When Eddie's job sends him to Chicago indefinitely, Sarah shocks him by suggesting a trial separation. But she knows it's just a precursor to divorceâ??even if Eddie chooses to think of it as a "vacation." Yet a lot can changeâ??on both sidesâ??as time goes by. And once Christmas arrives, Sarah and Eddie might re-discover gifts they'd for Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

It felt very flat and one dimensional and lacked any kind of depth that her books usually deliver while still being "easy reads'. It almost reads more like a novella? I think this storyline is promising and it covers an issue many people who have been married a decade or more could relate to, but this one needs some work. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for an advanced copy. (
