Reviews

Patti Webb ，

I received an E-Book ARC from NetGalley。This was a good summer read option。 It was nice to see a diversity cast of characters， but there was a lot of name dropping。 It’s in the same vein as Lauren Weisberger or Kevin Kwan。 Not super complicated， a light parody of the wellness industry。

Colleen McKeegan ，

I finished The Goddess Effect in a single sitting。 Sheila’s assured voice and incisive observations had me laughing out loud one moment and covering my mouth in shock the next。 A stellar debut with the perfect number of twists， turns， and Lululemon references。 Loved it！！

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This was surprisingly an entertaining， light women's fiction。 It was a mindless read and I was into it until the end。 The big reveal moment took 95% of the book to get too， then it gets rushed over and you are hit with an epilogue of one year later。 The protagonist and several other characters are Indian， one black character and the rest of white。 Ani， our lead， moves from New York to Los Angeles a few months after her dad dies。 She has one lead for a job and really， desperately clings to it。 In This was surprisingly an entertaining， light women's fiction。 It was a mindless read and I was into it until the end。 The big reveal moment took 95% of the book to get too， then it gets rushed over and you are hit with an epilogue of one year later。 The protagonist and several other characters are Indian， one black character and the rest of white。 Ani， our lead， moves from New York to Los Angeles a few months after her dad dies。 She has one lead for a job and really， desperately clings to it。 In the meantime， she joins a new fitness boutique which reveals itself to be cult-like。 Ani is likeable enough but relatable。 She's a confused thirty-something who rights her friendships gone wrong and mends her relationship with her mother。 In the epilogue， she is super successful a year later， which is very unrealistic。 。。。more
