A Circle of Friends

Summary: The bonds of friendship which would last forever
Review: I loved this book. It brought you into the life of other people and told a story of true friendship. No matter what happened they were there for each other. This book was great and I took every free minute I had to read and finish it. I was very disappointed after the book was over because it was such a wonderful story but I'm heading for more of her books:).

Summary: The Absolute BEST Book I Have Ever Read!!
Review: I bought this book a week before I went on vacation thinking that I would still be reading such a long book by then. I ended up finishing it in 2 days. This book was wonderful!!!!! I fell in love with Benny, despised Nan, and hated Jack! It showed that the beautiful people don't always turn up on top. READ THIS BOOK!! It's for anyone with a heart!

Summary: Absolutely based on real people...for once.
Review: THis book is the most incredible book Binchy has ever written. I found myself screaming at Jack and hating Nan more than my ex boyfriend! Thiss book is the catalyst for feeling of love, hope and hate. Benny is the charactristic of a real woman, a whole woman. I am so glad i read the book before I saw the movie. The movie was so awful, I was so discusted with the end. It made Benny look gullable and doe-eyd; the exact opposite of thee real book character. Th producer and directer should be shot for ripping apart a beautiful story of growing and learaning and making it into some Diane Steele paperback in a grocery store.

Summary: My favourite Maeve Binchy!
Review: I loved this book! The characters were real to me, and I especially loved Benny. Very rarely do you find a novel with a genuinely nice protagonist, rather than one who is only witty, outgoing, or beautiful. I also liked that Benny was portrayed as "big." That makes a nice change as well. Having seen the movie first, I was reluctant to try the book, especially when Jack turned out to be 10 times worse in the book than the movie. I was glad the book turned out like it did, because I would have thrown up if Benny had gone back to him the way she did in the movie.

Summary: Great book for those who think love will never conquer
Review: Circle of Friends is a great book for those, like me, who, at times, believe that love, especially true love, will never conquer. This book has been made into quite a nice movie, starring Minnie Driver and Chris O'Donnell, but nothing compares to reading this book for the first time.
