Heart of the Matter: A Novel Audiobook

" Made me upset.. not her best work. The first 3 were much better. I probably would have been happier not reading this one. "

" Cheating is never ok. How could a book with this plot line be titled "heart of the matter"? "

" This book has been written many times. Do not waste your time. I bought it because I had read other stuff by her but I did not enjoy it. "

" Predictable--which is why it made for a good book to keep beside the baby crib for late night feeding/rocking time. Thought the ending was kind of lame and shallow (no spoilers here). There was potential for a better story to come out of this plot. But, like I said, it makes for an easy, light pick-up-put-down sort of book. PS: why did she bother to bring other characters from prior books into this one, and then go basically no where with them in the plot? I felt like that device fell flat. "

" I enjoyed reading it. The earth didn't move but it was distracting. A quick easy read. Good topic. Characters lacked depth. "

" I really enjoyed it, it had twists that we're interesting but were also predictable. Better than love the one your with, that's for sure "

" I love filling the gaps with her books, always quick easy nice reads. Enjoyed getting both perspectives through out the book, the wife and the other women. "

" It was interesting to read a book like this from the perspective of 2 women. "

" Another great story by Emily Giffin! "

" Not the author's best work at all! Did not like the general theme nor the ending. "

" This book was pretty terrible. But I needed something easy and mindless to get me back to reading after a several month long hiatus....so I guess it worked for that. "

" This is the third book i read from Emily Giffin, but the truth is that i didn't enjoyed this one, I just read all the book because I was hopping for something better at the end. "

" The writing was brilliant. I love the way the scenes and actions are described so well. But the storyline just doesn't do it for me.. I'm not blaming the book, I just didn't find it interesting enough.. I actually found it quite boring. (it's just me ) "

" I liked the book, but it was not my favorite from Emily Giffin. I hope she wows me with her upcoming book! "

" Giffin is a really great writer. This book just struck a little too close to home for me to enjoy its entirety. But I'd be lying if I said she didn't completely suck me in. "

" Thought provoking book as you are able to understand the points of view of all 3 parties involved in an affair - which is a scary reality! "

" Love Emily Griffen. Love all her books. Couldn't put this book down. BUT, it left me feeling sad and melancholy. Even though I couldn't put it down, I wouldn't recommend it;( "

" This book was a great escape and an easy page turner! Good little dramatic story. It was also fun to hear about Rachel and Dex from the other novels! "

" a real thought provoker for a married mama:) "

" Just couldn't get in to this one. Didn't finish. "

" This is my second favorite of Emily's books. Something Borrowed is still number one thus far. "

" I wish I could say that I loved this book, but I just didn't. It was weak and I found myself spacing in parts, it was just boring. Not what I had hoped for. "

" While at my daughter's this week, I snooped around in her books for something to read. Imagine my surprise to read such a good book! And she has 4 others by this author that she sent home with me. Very well written. "

" I really enjoyed this book. Typically I don't chose page turners or chick lit. This was a new genre for me, and I loved it! I plan on reading all Emily's books. "

" Touching, realistic, and well written story told by two women...one who was the wife, the other who had an affair with that wife's husband. I didn't want to put it down. "

" I really enjoyed this book and it actually made me think. It was a bit slow at parts, but definitely worth reading! "

" Really good chick-lit; intelligent and insightful characters. Not the pulp I expected by the cover. "

" Have decided I'm not a fan of Emily Giffin's and probably won't be reading anymore of her books. "

" I couldn't put this book down because I wanted to know what happened. There are parts of the book where I felt like I needed to talk to someone about what was happening. "

" I liked the characters and found them believable, but the story line became old about half-way through. "

" Good read, wonder why Emily centers so much around cheating spouses but then what would make the story so interesting if people just lived a boring life :) I liked the ending "

" I usually love Emily Giffin books but I didn't like this one at all. It was a little to serious for my liking, I prefer a more light-hearted story. "
