Book Review: City of Friends by Joanna Trollope

It’s an easy read but “City of Friends” is full of petty dramas and arguments over nothing. The story doesn’t offer anything new or exciting and I don’t feel that this book was anything special.

I found “The Muse” to be a little underwhelming. I can imagine someone with an interest in art may have enjoyed parts of this book more than I did, but in general it was just an okay read.

“The Bone Clocks” was a massive disappointment. Full of characters I didn’t care for and plot points that didn’t have any relevance to the story whatsoever, I struggled to finish this book and am glad to have returned it to the library.
