Sinossi
Rebecca non si aspetta di fare nuove amicizie in età adulta, ma dopo aver adottato Amy si trova a passare i pomeriggi al parco. Lì incontra altre madri: prima la fascinosa e divertente Rose, poi Lilith, mamma single che non lascia mai con gli occhi la sua piccola Ruby-Mae. Molto presto le tre donne formano un trio e le loro figlie cominciano a comportarsi come sorelle. Ma Rebecca comprenderà che l'amicizia non è sempre come sembra e che talvolta ci si fida delle persone sbagliate. Nello stesso momento in cui avrebbe bisogno di poter far affidamento su di loro, scopre che una delle sue nuove amiche nasconde un segreto scioccante e l'altra le si rivolta contro. Le amiche del parco cambieranno la vita di Rebecca – e quella della sua famiglia – per sempre.

An easy read with important themes
Easy read but a bit too contrived for my liking.
I have recently become a reviewer for Pan MacMillan South Africa. This is really exciting and I am so looking forward to working with them. As part of my first batch of books for review, I received Gail Schimmel’s new novel, ‘The Park’. The story is told in first person narrative by the main characte Leggi tutto
I whipped through this rather quickly. I'm an audible enthusiast and disappointed that I had to READ this, rather than have it chatting at me. We reviewed it at book club - and being a keen dog walker in LOERIE Park, Johannesburg was keen to learn more about park dynamics. Yes, indeed it endorses a
This is a very intriguing book that really kept my attention. I liked the familiar South African setting and the author's humour, which comes through delightfully in her writing. I particularly enjoyed her characters--often unimportant secondary ones--that she brings surprisingly to life through the Leggi tutto
A very different, but interesting story. Loved reading the works of a South African author and the humour she brought into her writing. Some spelling and grammatical errors which were a bit annoying but the storyline made up for it.
Very good reading.
A fun and entertaining read. Well researched and an interesting story. The ending was a bit inevitable but it was still a good read.
