Angry Housewives Review
I really enjoyed this book. I loved every one of the characters. The author did a very good job developing each character. I hated to see the book end.

Absolutely enjoyed reading this book about sisterhood in the neighborhood, women supporting each other no matter what fate throws at them. It takes a while to get to know all the characters and at times is written too lengthy but overall I highly recommend it to women of all ages.

I read through some of the other reviews of this book--interesting, 130 + and only 46 -.
My husband and I both read lots of serious non-fiction books--we both (yes, even the man!) found this fun to read--and contrary to others, felt her characters were pretty well drawn out. I could "see" the book, like a movie in my head, and "knew" the characters.
We are also on the other end of the political spectrum--but both of us like to read all kinds of books, and find that we do learn from books that present other viewpoints. Try very hard to keep an open mind, and find that about some things, we have actually changed our thinking after reading an opposing view.
Our book group of 15 women, and 1 man are discussing the book tomorrow--and so far, pre-group--all the reports I have heard have been +. Looking forward to the discussion! And again, always the contrarians--our group is mixed--folks on the far right of the political spectrum, people in the middle, and some who lean leftward. Makes for pretty interesting discussions--but like the

), an unofficial ?club? that becomes much more. It becomes a lifeline. Holding on through forty eventful years, there?s Faith, a lonely mother of twins who harbors a terrible secret that has condemned her to living a lie; big, beautiful Audrey, the resident sex queen who knows that with good posture and an attitude you can get away with anything; Merit, the shy doctor?s wife with the face of an angel and the private hell of an abusive husband; Kari, a wise woman with a wonderful laugh who knows the greatest gifts appear after life?s fiercest storms; and finally, Slip, a tiny spitfire of a woman who isn?t afraid to look trouble straight in the eye.
This stalwart group of friends depicts a special slice of American life, of stay-at-home days and new careers, of children and grandchildren, of bold beginnings and second chances, in which the power of forgiveness, understanding, and the perfectly timed giggle fit is the CPR that mends broken hearts and shattered dreams.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
