DNF @ 10% the prose is not working for me and I do not enjoy reading about people who let people cross boundaries that they set years ago.

Husbands & Lovers

Beatriz Williams

DID NOT FINISH: 6%

I did not make it far in this one. I could tell within the first two chapters that this one was not for my demographic (28, single, childless). I will still recommend it to other readers, but depends on the kind of reader! 

The writing is great, but I found myself not wanting to pick it up due to the plot and characters.
