REVIEW - When We Were Friends (ebook)


 When We Were Friends by Jane Green (ebook)


OVERVIEW

This was a short story by Jane Green. I had never read anything by her before and had no expectations. Unfortunately, this short story just didn't work for me. 


OVERALL REVIEW: 3.0 stars


Writing: 3.0 stars

This short story fell flat to me. The writing was just okay.


Character development: 3.0 stars

The two main characters are Lucy (recent divorcee) and Elle (single) who meet in a bar bathroom. 

We only learn about the characters superficially to discover that both are very shallow. 


Storyline:  3.0 stars

Lucy and Elle meet in a bar bathroom and instantly become best friends. The story goes downhill from there. 

The main location is Fairfield, Connecticut.   


Memorable/Informative:  4.0 stars

I learned a new term - love bombing. 


Book cover: 4.0 stars

Pretty.


Book title: 3.0 stars 

Appropriate.
