    Coming to terms at midlife
  

*by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2021*

This story begins with three families all moving into a newly built neighborhood on the same day. Kate is a paramedic, a single mom with a teenager and a secret past. For some reason, the clues to which spool out very slowly, Kate and her daughter are on the run and have changed their names. She cannot allow herself to become close to the other two women in the story--or anyone, for fear of her daughter's safety and her own sanity.Giselle is a privileged, wealthy SAHM, materialistic and unhappy; her two kids (a surly teen daughter and ever-more-absent young adult son) despise or avoid her, and her workaholic husband is distant.Sally, married more than a decade to fussy, perfectionist Chris, can no longer deny her urge to be a mother, but Chris is already moving on. Sally, like Giselle, is obsessed with posting fake-happy documentation of her perfect life on social media. Their hypocrisy is stunning. This is a theme of the story: things are not what they seem. Don't assume others have it so good because it might be a false front.In fact, all three of these families are in horrible turmoil behind the facade. The women need each other and the reader wants them to be honest and let the friendships bloom for mutual support, but this doesn't happen easily. When it does, and we get resolution to their difficulties, it's dramatic and satisfying. A good story about coming to terms with reality in midlife.

    What was the twist?
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2019*

This came up on my Kindle Daily Deals and it sounded interesting. It's set in England and written by an English author. I read another review where the reader complained about sayings she didn't understand, I'm not sure why she doesn't just Google them. Anyway, I will say this story was very compelling but a bit on the depressing side. Basically we have three main characters Kate, Gisela and Sally, who live in the same gated community. Each of them have secrets, while on the outside they seem to have normal lives. Gisela has a big home and lots of money and is very social. Kate is a single mom and is fiercely private and not social at all. Sally is married without kids but she desperately wants a baby while her husband does not. They all get to know each other when Gisela throws a housewarming party and invites all her neighbours. Gisela and Kate's daughters become friends as they are similar ages. Daisy is Kate's daughter and is in her final year of school while Gisela's daughter Hannah has finished school but doesn't get the marks she needs to go to university. Hannah is problematic and spoiled. Gisela's son Ollie is about to enter his final year at university and Gisela learns he has been keeping his new girlfriend a secret. The three women's stories are interesting and it was a good read but as I said, also a little depressing.

    Life as you see it in social media
  

*by N***U on Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2021*

Three women neighbors…one is hiding from her past; the other two hiding behind their social media posts.  All were wary about coming out of hiding; one was fearful for her life, while the other two were afraid of what people might think.I totally relate to the author as someone who grew up when the internet was still unheard of. While I know of a number of my contemporaries who seem to post everything that’s happening to them everyday, most still don’t.  One can really never be certain if what was posted represents what’s real, so I love how the the social media posts of the story’s characters were put side by side with what was actually happening in their lives.Beautifully worded, good chapter transitions, but I’d have preferred if Becky and Kate met again, even though what would happen to them was already implied.  It’s just my OC self wanting all ends tied up.
