Page Turner: Heart of the Matter
Heart of the Matter – Emily Giffin = your typical chick lit book.
I didn’t necessarily love it, but I didn’t hate it either. She always writes such real characters that you can’t help seeing yourself or someone you know in her stories.
The Good: It’s an easy read; it’s a book that you can read within a day and be so engrossed in the story and characters that you put off everything else that you’re supposed to be doing that day. Drink it with a glass of wine or right before bed, but either way, you’re gonna dig it if you want to be subtly entertained by a chicklit story.
The Bad: The ending. I didn’t feel like there was any real conclusion to either of the two women’s stories. Not as great as her previous books, but it was good until the last 10 pages.
Her books are such a guilty pleasure that a girl will always enjoy reading it. I was just a taaaaaaad disappointed with how it ended because it could’ve been so much better, but that’s just me!
