The "LONG" weekend...was a LONG read....or at least it felt like it.
Clare Lydon is a great author. She writes very well and I normally enjoy her storys. But I had trouble with this one.
9 people stay a long weekend together by the shore in a big lovely home. 6 of them went to college together and remained friends. So they plan this get away every 10 years.
And of course you can guess...lots a little spats, break ups, love affairs, alcohol, drugs and 1 overdose.
The problem I had was I didnt really like anyone. So I didnt care about any of their out comes. So that made me just want it to end. So it felt long and drawn out.
Question: In your late 30's/early 40's do they really need tequila shots, beer, wine AND sneak to the bathroom for cocaine? Of course things happened after all that...what else would you expect.
I do not recommend it for a reader that prefers good warm friend gatherings.
Also I chose the audiobook and the narrator read fine but never changed her voice to represent individual characters.2 people found this helpful
