A review by obsidian_blue
Always and Forever by Cathy Kelly

2.0

It took to about the 40% mark for the story lines to kind of converge. Had a feeling of being unfinished at the epilogue.

Full review:

So I read this book eons ago and finally picked up it again to just fully go through Kelly's backlist. I do miss Maeve Binchy on days like today. This book feels like three separate stories, and when the three women finally meet up (plus the spa owner) it just does not feel organic or real at all. They have zero things in common and it just felt like it was forced fit. The storyline I cared the most about was Daisy. Cleo's was beyond boring and Mel's did nothing for me either.

There's also some really toxic views about plus sized women in this one and I maybe screamed anytime that was brought up during Daisy's storyline.
