Divorce, kids, careers, boyfriends, finding yourself announces itself early on as mainstream women’s fiction. Five college friends are nearing 40, and their lives haven’t turned out exactly as planned. Trueblood’s sympathetic juggling between the various points of view proves an effective way of showing that simple formulas don’t work for today’s woman. –Booklist
