I have to say up front that I saw the picture of the author on the book cover. I have to admit that I've developed a little crush on her. The below review is my attempt at being objective. Pride by Lorene Carey is a joy to behold. This is the first book that I read by Ms. Carey, it will not be the last.
Pride is a story of friendship between four women that grew up together.
This is the coming together, growing apart, the anger and the memories that go along with friendship, told in a realistic fashion with an endearing voice. We go through weddings, births, finding out about affairs, awakenings and all of the the nuts and bolts that goes with calling someone a friend. Carey pulled it off effortlessly and wonderfully. The book is well grounded in the real. Carey never shied away from the ugly spots that friends are bound to discover about each other.
