About this listen

Recently almost-married Bug and her best friend Winnie are getting ready for the inaugural meeting of their book group. Fiona is there, of course, with her Uber driver Sami; and a random man called James who hasn’t read the book. Or any books. It’s going to change all their lives. They just don’t know that yet. Welcome to the bookshop.

Not to my taste at all. I never give up before the end but this is a first. The characters were not believable. The story line very weak.

Only listened to episodes 1 and 2 then deleted.

Only got half way through episode 1. I think on general the performances were good, and the premise may have been ok, but every 5 seconds there's a musical interlude that was entirely unnecessary and completely ruins any flow. It was all a bit too haphazard and irritating.

Wish I'd looked more at reviews

Didn’t enjoy this at all, maybe I didn’t give it a fair crack but 8 mins of tedious and annoying women interacting with a couple of blokes did me in.

Tedious and annoying

I should start by saying chick lit isn't my usual kind of thing so it may feel perfectly adequate to someone who's more familiar with and enjoys the genre. I chose this title because I'm a book lover and expected some kind of intertwining of the story with the (more literary) books they were supposedly reading but there's hardly any reference to the books at all. The plot, especially the final chapters, is thin to utterly ridiculous - I won't give spoilers but the final chapter in particular felt full of bolted on, unearned and utterly implausible plot points. The voice acting was a mixture of good and very bad (the actor playing James seemed to have no understanding of how to deliver the lines as a believably, naturalistically hesitant human being). Not for me.

Doesn't live up to the concept
