The Sweet Magnolias

review 1: Midnight Promises (The Sweet Magnolias #8) picked up with gang at ladies of Serenity. Karen was the main character, a single mother who married Eliot with security she wanted for herself and her two young children.The two are in love; however, Eliot keeps a financial arrangement from Karen, which does not set to well based on her past experience with her ex-husband and threatens to tear them apart. When their brother in law is found cheating on Elliott’s sister, they come together and find a bond to triumph over the differences.As usual the Sweet Magnolias come together to help solve the issue with southern humor.
review 2: Is it a bad sign when you want to slap one of the main characters for most of the book? That is how I felt with Karen. I do think tha... moret she had justification for some of her worries, but she beat them to death!! It was the same issue over and over with her and Elliot getting into a fight. I understood Elliot's reasoning for not telling her about the gym, part of me agreed with him, part of me agreed with Karen. But once things came out Karen needed to decide if she was behind Elliot or not. She would say that she was, then 5 minutes later be mad about the same issue.I even sort of understood some of their arguments about not talking things through. But they had very different schedules and what Karen would often blow up about seemed silly to me. I can see why Elliot would forget to tell her, as they were often passing ships in the dark. I quickly grew tired of the drama with the main couple and became more invested in some of the other story lines. I hated what seemed to be happening with Frances, hated how it made her feel and her denial, but loved how she came to peace with it and her actions afterwards. The Senior Sweet Magnolia's margarita night had me laughing as well as their Vegas trip.I also got very vested in what was happening to Elliot's sister, Adella. I didn't really like her at first, she was a raging bitch, but then after learning what she was dealing with I got why. I like where she was by the end of the book and hope that Helen takes care of her! less
