Four Friends

Four friends is a beach read type novel by Robin Carr has a slightly slow start where we meet three friends, who walk around their neighborhood together in the morning and share the ups and downs of their lives with each other.

Gerri’s marriage falls apart first when she finds out a devastating truth about her husband and she cannot figure out how best to handle it in a way that feels right for her and her 3 older kids.  Will she get what she wants and learn something about herself as she navigates this big event or will it ruin everything.

Andy’s next bad marriage ends and she finds herself alone once again.  And when she finds herself attracted to someone she would not normally spend time with she has to work out what she really wants and needs.

Sonja is normally the one in the neighborhood watching out for and taking care of everyone else, and now her husband has declared he is done with their marriage as well.  How will Sonja cope with being thrust into life on her own.

And then there’s newcomer BJ who seems to be able to solve some of the friends’ problems with her fresh take and running advice.  But what is her story and will she also need the help of her new neighborhood friends.

I really enjoyed this book, and am keen to read some of Robyn Carr’s other book - Amazon tells me she has had at least 1 book on the New York Times best seller list.
