Compulsively readable. While I didn't buy or appreciate the premise of the book, Giffin handles it well. Her choice to have the affair start in the very first chapter is a good one, as it sets up the impetus right away. In ways it's also a bad one, since she then has to spend time filling in the backstory in later chapters. Partway through the book picks up steam, though, surging ahead full-force to fill in the pieces of Rachel's relationships with Dex and Darcy. Winning chick-lit.
