First of we don't know what his age is, whether he was slightly younger or same age as her (and the math trying to figure it out hurt my head to be honest.). Now Avi, he was a Hero unlike any I ever read before. If I could have seen into the future, seen Monica’s bloodshot eyes and pained face, still living in a world of hurt three months after she’d first discovered the affair, I never would have started it".
I just hadn’t thought I’d hurt anyone with my actions. I’d made wise choices, I’d done a lot of really good things, and I’d fucked up along the way. But my life hadn’t begun the first time I slept with Tom, and it hadn’t ended there either. "I hadn’t forgiven myself, because I’d never thought I deserved it. And the other thing that took the fun out of my enjoyment was at about 50% in, we learn that a year prior, she had an affair with her MARRIED boss- knowing he was married and didn't stop to consider who she was hurting and how wrong it was!!! So while she regrets what she did, especially since the guy's wife found out about her affair and confronted her, I did like that she learned from her mistake and changed, but what she did was so wrong that I just couldn't get past it. Her fascination with comics & super Heroes which was endless by the way and boring as hell. Now there are two things that I hated also about her.
One thing I loved about this heroine is her close friendships with her BF's, co-workers, family (especially her nieces as it was just too cute & sweet!) and her relationship/friendship with Hero. This story mainly contains her POV and boy did I have a few laugh-out moments. Lauren is a beautiful & short (only 5 ft) optimistic & funny heroine. Now this heroine and I share three things: She loved to bake & cook (same as me), she collected vintage Le Creuset bakeware (where's I collect anything & everything Le Creuset!) AND she had a fabulous closet where she spent time hanging out, meditating, admiring her work Suits of all things & solving problems with her two cute nieces! (Only difference there between us is that I admire my cashmere sweaters and dream of winning the lottery so that I can have a bigger diva closet (think Mariah Carey, Oprah or Paris Hilton.). She wanted a new start & to reinvent herself after she f**k up royally.
Lauren bought a fixer up home and moved out of the city to Baltimore to be close to her 3 best friends. Okay, so this is a story about a 30 year old Lawyer, Lauren, who comes from a big loving Italian family. I didn't love/love it, but nor did I hate it. You know? That's exactly how I felt about this story. Have you ever had something sweet to eat or drink and wasn't sure if you liked it or not? I mean, it tasted good on one hand because it was different then what you ever had before, but on the other, was different. I am not sure how to rate this one to be honest.
