Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher (Little, Brown & Company) and the author for the opportunity to read and review this book!
I really enjoyed this book - it's the story of 4 inseparable friends from Bristol University. After they graduate, they have to forge new adult relationships and roles as well as maintain their friendship throughout.
Eva was raised by a socialist father which probably influenced her decision to join the banking world. Benedict is from a wealthy family and stayed on to get his PhD after graduation. Eva's best friend, Sylvie, and her brother, Lucien, complete the foursome. The story is told in chapters that progress from graduation to current time, following each of the friends' lives and relationships.
This would be a great book club read - I thought that each of the characters were written well and there was a lot of emotion that you could really feel throughout the book. It's a story of growing up, dealing with life's turns, disappointments, challenges and being true to yourself and your friends.
