First I must say, very well put together story and the author managed to handle six plus characters and plots without giving me a headache.After reading two chapters, I was already into the story and connecting with the characters. Renee, the second character introduced, sets the story into motion. She’s looking at Facebook, something we all do, and decides to unite all her friends who look so happy with their lives.But to loosely quote Portlandia, people on the internet don’t tend to be as happy as you think. We get inside the minds of her friends she was browsing on Facebook, they’re the other characters of this tale.Anyway, Renee plans a reunion and when they all met up I was expecting a lot more excitement. I figured they hadn’t seen each other in months, but their gathering was sort of ho-hum.This story covers every type of drama: marriage, divorce, dating, pregnancy, the elderly, death, cheating, unemployment, workplace issues, and etc.To me, Steve’s plot was the most daring. Renee, Dave, and Katie were the core of the story and very interesting characters. Sam was basically a repeat of a Lifetime movie. And as for James, he was honestly forgettable.Overall though, I’m a sucker for plots like this. It reminds me of TV Shows like Brothers & Sisters. Overall, great read. 5 out 5 stars.
