Book Reviews of Watermelon

Book Review: 4.5 if I could
Summary: 4 Stars

I will not go into what the book is about because all one hundred and something reviews do so.

Claire, the protagonist, is a great character, someone I would love to be friends with. She is funny, intelligent, loyal, honest and witty. Her outlook on life is actually quite inspiring considering the relationship trauma she was put through. Her resiliency is amazing. I am hoping that Keyes either continues Claire's story at some points, or lets her readers know what has happened with her life in other books!

The men in Claire's life and her relationships as well as her new baby are the focal points of this book. Her maturity towards her baby is fantastic as she realizes despite her husband leaving her, the baby must come first. It is also fun to see Claire's inner battles as she experiences a new relationship. Her outlook is so healthy and fun!

Although this is a light, fluffy and fun read, it also manages to be deep and heartfelt. But Claire's sense of humor and wit manages to make the could-be-heavy scenarios less intense. This is a feel good novel that I would highly recommend. The Walsh family is a hoot, and I cannot wait to read more of Keyes books so that I can experience more of their zaniness and fun!

I plan to read all of Keyes books from this point onward, and will buy them in hardcover because I will not be able to wait for paperbacks! I might even have to go to Amazon.com.UK so I can get them sooner then they are released in the US.
