A story of 3 women who plot the perfect revenge for their ex-husbands, and "discover themselves and love along the way!" A little "raunchy," but very funny. The perfect airplane and beach book!

Fun revenge. The female characters are differentiated, the male characters a little flat, but the book is a kick.

Riveting. Read it straight through. Did nothing else all day. ;-)
Great book, better than the movie (but I always feel that way!)
Loved it. Reminded me of the movie...both were good
Great book could hardly put it down.
Excellent!
I loved this book. The book is sooo much better than the movie. It is a woman power feel good book. The author made her characters very real.
What a fun book!
I started reading this book but stopped in the middle. I just could take all the cursing in it. there were to many F-words for me. When they weren't cursing it was sorta funny though.
three best friends who were dumped by their husbands decide to turn the tables on the men. Very amusing book.
Abandoned first wives "get even"!
Excellent book.
So much fun! The ultimate book for any woman who has ever been betrayed...

Funny and fun! An enjoyable book to read and plot to follow.
If you enjoyed Fifty Shades of Grey you would enjoy this book. However, this book follows many different characters and the struggles they have within their marriages and divorce. It points out that friendship will get you through the rough times along with humor. I enjoyed reading this book and found it to be entertaining especially since I divorced my first husband and then found and married a good man the second time.
Three women were the "first wives" who's husbands left for younger women. They conspire together to give each man his due - getting even in full view on New York society. Very funny and sexy.
The characters are extremely well developed and the parts from the wive's points of view are interesting. But a lot of parts tend to drag and are boring.
Elise, Brenda, and Annie were all first wives but when their husbands abandon them for younger "trophy" wives, they decide to get even. Funny book! Great read!
Great book. Awful movie!
I liked the movie version better which is rarely the case with me.
I haven't read the book, it was my mother's.
My book has the actresses from the movie on the cover, but I believe it to be the same book. Delightful read.
The cover has a movie tie-in photo
