I recently learned the word 'glib' and have seen it defined as 'lacking thought or substance'. That is what this book is to me. It is the reading equivalent of a cleaning video. So little happens, and the characters have almost no personality. The main goal of the book has not even been completed by the end, which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that almost nothing stood in their way. The pace is unbelievably slow, and I struggled to care about anything that happened. The ladies mentioned literally dozens of times that they were unmarried - I get it! Is this how all slice-of-life books are written? I hope not. Two stars for being somewhat competent and having the beginnings of an idea, but I hated this.
