The ending of this book was very weak and the somewhat implausible plot line just became more absurd.

Having said all of that, this was a good book which touched upon friendship. It reminds you that each person has the potential to surprise you with what they have lived through if you only knew. I also wished that I had the same kind of college experience that the main characters lived through. Finding one, let alone, three other girls, who will be with you through thick and thin is so rare and the author does a great job developing their relationships over the years.

This is an inspiring book and reminds me that motherhood is a noble and humble undertaking. I give a copy to all of my friends with new babies.

I also didn't like this book. I tried really hard to get into it, but it just felt unreal. I cannot see someone sticking around for that kind of abuse from an employer. Especially when she saw how the previous nanny was treated.
