Climbing in Heels: A Novel by Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas
3.0

Thank you St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the DRC of Climbing in Heels. All opinions in this review are my own.

I thought I was going to love Climbing in Heels so I'm disappointed I didn't. It felt too long and the stories of the three women didn't feel connected enough. It didn't need to start when the women were young and because it spanned so much time, I feel like the characters lacked depth. I also felt like I was reading three different stories. Although they are set in the same time and place, the three women only interacted on occasion so I felt like I was trying to read three different books at once. Overall, Climbing in Heels tried to cover too much and it lost depth because of it.
