I loved Pru and her story - she is very real and I could relate. ( ) Nice To Come Home To was ok - a little formulaic (single woman, biological clock ticking, gay best friend, jerk ex boyfriend, jealous of her sister, meets guy , loses guy, happy ending) but its a reasonable read and the characters were well drawn. I found Pru's overthinking a little tedious at times and never really warmed to her character that much.Still it was ok. Pru is approaching 40 when she is startled out of her life when she notices a very pregnant woman with 2 children in tow. Where has her life gone? She decides that she must commit to her current boyfriend, though he is not quite what she pictured for herself, only to have him dump her the night she expects him to propose. As Pru tries to get her life and career back on track, she finds herself pulled into her sister's life as she and her two-year-old niece find themselves in their own crisis. With a loving cast of friends as characters, Pru eventually finds a course for her career, though her romantic interest is drawn in another direction. This book was somewhat predictable and formulaic, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. Pru and the other characters were well-developed and not without flaws. Though it started out a little rough, I soon came to care about the characters and was disappointed when the story came to an end. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: A smart, funny, entertaining novel of love and family for our times, Nice to Come Home To breaks the mold of the conventional love story--and will have readers cheering. Everyone around Prudence Whistler, thirty-six, seems to be settling down. Her once-single girlfriends have lately married and had babies. Her gay best friend is discussing marriage with his partner. Even her irresponsible younger sister, Patsy is the single mother of a two-year-old. But when Pru loses her lackluster boyfriend of two years, she fears sheâ??s lost her chance at a traditional family of her own. What she then stumbles upon, however, may actually be even better. Setting about redesigning her life, Pru finds herself accumulating an unusual ad hoc family around he, both within her crowded apartment and in the broader community of Adams-Morgan in Washington, DC. With her new life come the confidence to realize her dress-shop dreams, and a new understanding of family and happiness--one that may just deliver true love in the bargain. Endearing, romantic, witty, and satisfying, Nice to Come Home To is a charming, crowd-pleasing debut. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
