So I‘m pulling the plug on this one! I made it 38% of the way through and so far it‘s just boring. Three women go away together to escape the stress of pre-Christmas and volunteer to run a bed and breakfast? And one of the women‘s husbands is a huge jerk and I‘m just sick of reading his perspective. So maybe I‘ll pick it up in the future, but, for now, I‘ve got more interesting books calling to me.

Karisa At least the title is funny! Sounds like the plot was only half-baked though… 3w
candc320 @Karisa yeah, I had high hopes as it sounded like it would be really funny! 3w
