The Divorce Party: A Novel Audiobook

" This was a really good idea for a book. I loved how you knew there were secrets but they slowly unfolded. I absolutely LOVED Gwyn and her real motives behind the Divorce Party. This would make a great beach read/afternoon at the pool book. "

" I enjoyed reading this book, but just know that it is a light read not suitable for a bookclub discussion. After reading a great deal on non-fiction I needed something that was just entertaining and this book more than served the purpose. A great vacation or plane read. "

" I read this because I liked "My First Husband" by Laura Dave so well. I thought this was original--the way it alternated between an engaged couple and a couple still in love, but whose marriage is falling apart. Good stuff! "

" Really good. Couple on Montauk getting divorced. Their son brings his fiance to divorce party. She finds out he was married before but still stays with him. "

" This book was enjoyable but predictable. I read it fairly quickly, but was turned off by some of the grammatical issues. There were far too many sentence fragments for my liking, and I found quite a few spacing issues - lack of spaces between random words. The spacing could only apply to the Kindle edition, as I don't have a hard copy of the book for comparison. "

" Suprisingly, it was OK. I thaught this will be just one of those girlie books I will read and then think - My God, everyone can publish a novel, but the way author tells a story is very simple, but still not phatetic. Read if you want to know how marriage can end and that's not drama. "

" Story of two generations and the struggles couples face. Laura Dave is a great writer. "

" I expected more. Minor point but the use of punctuation was bad and forced me to reread sentences. Really thought I would like the book but never really did. "

" A huge storm, the end of a marriage, and the Hamptons. I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, but it definitely stays with you. The characters and their faults/motivations/tragedies really get into your head. "

" Absolutely gorgeous. Give yourself a treat and read this book. "

" An easy, albeit formulaic read. Appealing characters and you do want to see how the author wraps up all those storylines. "

" Went to camp with the author, so had to buy and read it. Love her observations, and the locale--Montauk, where my family has hit the beach for decades. "

" Read this book as research for a book I'm writing that has a character going through divorce. The book wasn't what I was expecting, but I liked it nonetheless. I liked how Laura Dave went from a woman at the end of a marriage and an engaged woman. The look back and the look forward. "

" This book really makes you open your eyes. Divorice Party. Is it such a bad idea? The point was to celebrate what you DID have instead of focusing on the fact that it is no over. "

" The title caught my eye - the synopsis drew me in - the characters , story and writing style amazed me ! I totally expected fluff - boy was I wrong . "

" I like this author, and enjoyed this book. A quick read, but leaves you thinking once it's done. "

" I really liked this book because it profiled three generations of one family. I did feel like the author could have gone deeper into their histories and relationships instead of primarily focusing on the present circumstances of each couple. A nice story. "

" I wish there were more categories for rating the books. Sometimes it's like I'm comparing apples and oranges. I gave this book 3 stars but if there was a "beach read" category, I probably would have rated it higher. "

" I found this book to be hilarious "

" There were some thoughtful parts that I enjoyed. "

" A much deeper book than the cover suggests. I loved the different narratives, especially Gwyn's. "

" This book was depressing.... Although what did I expect from a book called The Divorce Party :) "

" A much deeper book than the cover suggests. I loved the different narratives, especially Gwyn's. "

" Good book. Not as good as her other, "London Is The Best City In America" (not as good by a long shot), but still good. "

" Leitura de aeroporto. Era o que tinha disponível lá. "

" This was a good audiobook for the treadmill. Novel about the effect of a parents divorce (and its party) on the impending marriage of their son and his finace. Better than I thought it would be. "
