This is the newest book by Jane Green that came out over the summer. It is another light, airy, chick lit type of book set in Highfield, Connecticut. For those who have read previous Jane Green books, this town is a familiar one even including some familiar characters from past books.
Some of the themes that ran through this book were very familiar compared to what she has written before. Kit is a recently divorced woman trying to re-establish who she is after her divorce. She has shared custody of her children, some good female friends, and a job as an assistant to a famous author in the area.
The book is mainly about Kit trying to figure out her life, including her love life. Her ex-husband is still in the picture (through visitation with the kids) and Kit starts to date again. She also tries to be supportive of her friends as one goes through a huge financial crisis as her husband loses his Wall Street job and another becomes secretive and seems to be hiding something.
Overall it was a quick, decent read. In some ways I liked that there were some characters and places in the book that I had read about before…but it did also feel a little bit repetitive.
