review 1: I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.British chick lit and I tend not to always get along so well. I don’t really ever dislike a book, they just don’t seem to hold my attention for long or are extremely memorable to me. The characters in this book are a little two-dimensional, but not highly unlikeable. They were very much the “ladies who lunch” as the blurb tells us, and in some situations it was just a little too over the top. The scenes about getting revenge on their husbands did keep my attention, but I felt a lot of the situations weren’t needed for the book.
review 2: Lesley for Big Book Little BookIt’s always fun to read something completely escapist and in stark contrast to your own life and Chelsea Wives certainl
... morey came up trumps on that score! I picked this up for my kindle whilst browsing for a few new reads and thought this sounded fun. It doesn’t disappoint.Our leading ladies are Imogen Forbes, Calvary Rothschild and Yasmin Belmont-Jones. Each of them is stinking rich and living the lifestyle with bells on! There is lots of mention of brand names, famous restaurants and the like… If you are into fashion and designer names then you’ll feel right at home here -and if you are not– well it’s a wonderfully escapist entertaining read anyway! In spite of their wealth, they are all utterly miserable and unhappy in their marriages for varying reasons. I expected to dislike the characters and to find them shallow and vain but in fact the author has developed them well. They have depth and are likeable. They are all desperate to get out of their individual situations and when one of them makes a plan to get back at her husband the other two jump on board immediately for their own personal reasons and a great story plays out.As I learned more about their marriages and the situations they were in I found myself rooting for them and wanting their plans to succeed – even if they weren’t legal! As you get to know their husbands it becomes rather satisfying to see the women eventually get their revenge in one way or another. There are some funny moments too.Verdict:This story does have a happy ending and if you need an entertaining escapist read then this book does the job perfectly! It’s available in both paperback and Kindle formats and although I read it mainly tucked up in bed and on the sofa, it would be the perfect accompaniment to lounging on a sunbed with a cocktail in hand. less
