I picked up this book because I was looking for something that I could relate to in terms of frustrations over friends getting married and having kids etc. The summary on the jacket of this book is not accurate and only reflects a small portion of this book. It's very misleading. I didn't really like this book and upon reflection actually changed my initial three star review to two stars. The characters weren't very well defined and the changing prespective made it hard to keep track of who was who and what was happening. Names were very similar which added to this difficulty. Story lines were not seen through to their fullest. You'd get really into the story of a characters break up or budding relationship and in the next chapter when the character had switched you'd hear about the storyline you were interested in in passing and it'd be completely different. Like on one page a character would be going through a horrible break up and 10 pages later in a different chapter she was getting married. It was hard to keep track of the timeline. And then it just ends. Very unsatisfying. Lauren's relationship with Mark was particularly distressing because she didn't seem thrilled with it at all and then in the final chapter she says they're probably going to get married. I just did not like this book.
