   Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.   ) PurplOttr | Dec 1, 2023 |  I've never used this phrase to describe a book before, but this book is very meta. The book is about four friends who are all writers. Kendall has a meltdown due to her personal life and her friends help her. They suggest that they all write a book together, a book about four friends who are writers. Each one of them writes about herself, but in code. They want Kendall to get complete credit for the book and they do not want to break their own contracts by writing the story with her. So, they decide to use the anonymity of their fictional characters to write about their real secrets. Mallory and Faye put the most on the line personally. But none of them owns up to each other that they are telling true stories. When the book becomes a best seller (that's not a spoiler since it's in the title) their friendship and personal relationships are put to the test. I enjoyed it. I liked the characters and I though they had a lot of personal growth by the end of the story.

I particularly loved the publishing and writing aspect (as I was a publisher for many years in Atlanta and NY-for commercial real estate and finance), so the editing and publishing was great as there is always lots of drama and deadlines; however, would love to be an inspired writer (only write for websites, design, and articles, blogs), but always an inspiration for a novel one day! The characters were raw, and full of personality and you fall in love with each one of them, as hard to pick a favorite. Great writing – would love to see a sequel here…look forward to reading some of Wendy’s older books! Highly recommend! ( ) JudithDCollins | Nov 27, 2014 | Fast forward and one is struggling with her personal life and writing. The friends pitch a plan to help her out. Enjoyable book and I was very curious as to how it would all work out. I wanted to smack a couple of them a few times though! (  ) NancyJak | Jun 23, 2013 | keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:From the USA Today bestselling author of While We Were Watching Downton Abbey... Once upon a time four aspiring authors met at their very first writers' conference. Ten years later they're still friends, survivors of the ultra-competitive New York publishing world. Mallory St. James is a workaholic whose bestsellers support a lavish lifestyle. Tanya Mason is a single mother juggling two jobs, two kids, and too many deadlines. Faye Truett is the wife of a famous televangelist and the author of inspirational romances: no one would ever guess her explosive secret. Kendall Aims's once-promising career is on the skids-and so is her marriage. Her sales are dismal, her new editor detests her work-and her husband is cheating. Barely able to think, let alone meet her final deadline, Kendall holes up in a mountain cabin to confront a blank page and a blanker future. But her friends won't let her face this trial alone. Together they collaborate on a novel using their own lives as fodder, assuming no one will ever discover the truth behind their words. No one is more surprised than they are when the book becomes a runaway bestseller. But with success comes scrutiny and scandal...as these four best friends suddenly realize how little they've truly known each other. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
