As book clubs become more and more popular, it's only natural that more books about book clubs should emerge (I really enjoyed The Jane Austen Book Club). The Sushi Club consists of four middle-aged women: a writer (Alice), a former soap-opera star (Irene), a single mom who lost the love of her life in a river rafting accident (Jina), and a female 40-year old virgin (Mary).

I loved the premise of this book (a group of four friends is thrown into chaos when one of them, a writer, writes a book that reveals all their secrets), but I was sort of afraid of the chick-flicky-ness of it. The execution of the story was totally solid - but it was really more of a light summer read than anything I could sink my teeth into.

This book is NOT about four girlfriends eating sushi and telling secrets, as the cover leads you to believe. The plot is weird, but the writing is good and the characters (although there are too many) are fairly well-developed. I enjoyed it - all in all, a good read.

This book was NOTHING like I thought it would be. It turned into this whole rafting adventure which to me was totally boring. I thought it would be more about the women dishing their secrets in their "sushi club".

This book has some good parts, but too many strange parts to allow me get comfortable while reading it. I never knew what other form of fantasy was going to be thrown in.
