** spoiler alert ** It's supposed to be a 'rollicking' tale of old university friends, old loves, old jealousies. It doesn't deliver. My take on it: too many storylines, too repetitive; too predictable; much too long.
It's mostly fluff but the author tries to make it more 'meaty' by introducing heavier topics: having a character get an HIV diagnosis; having another involved in an extra marital affair (supposedly); and having another who just can't commit to a loving relationship because she might get hurt (eye roll here). It just doesn't work for me. I guessed the HIV diagnosis way before it came up in the story; I guessed the bi-sexual bent of another character early on, and I got bored with the juvenile angst of Cath. Nevertheless, I doggedly read to the predictable, anti-climatic end - a waste of valuable time.
