5.0 out of 5 stars Very creative and imaginative novel, February 23, 2010

By

This review is from: Message From A Mistress (Paperback)

Message From a Mistress is a delight; it's a realistic and engaging novel about four wives who must determine which of their spouses is having an affair with one of their friends. Niobia presented a diverse cast of characters (it takes talent to be able to do that, believe me), and takes us on an adventure that provides insight into marital relationships and the heartbreak they sometimes bring. We're left on the edge on our seat until the very end. Readers who enjoy sassy, contemporary women's fiction may want to add this one to their reading list. Bravo!

This review is from: Message From A Mistress (Paperback)

in hindsight i thought this would be a very good book... But it took me forever to get into..and when it finally got only OKAY it ended. This book was very non climatic @ all the husbands returned I quickly knew what the outcome was. I am also very certain who the cheating spouse is...... But i will leave that up to you to find out after all it was said and done I did not fault Jessa those married cronies never trusted her but told her their deepest darkest secrets to her... Who would do that ? in any event I really was bummed that i wasted so much time reading this book and a sequel! How could she drag this out any more ..Honestly to tell you the truth the whole replaying of events was a tad annoying (flashbacks) and how long it took them to get from initally getting the message ..to the hubby's getting confronted ..it was too drawn out.....and I got BORED of the whole story.

This review is from: Message From A Mistress (Paperback)

"Message From A Mistress" reminds me of the movie " A Letter To Three Wives" that came out many years ago. I was really into this book because I wanted to see which husband was cheating. I skipped pages and was totally disappointed to see that I would have to purchase another book to find out the ending. Oh, well, I guess I will never know. Niobia, I'm an avid reader of your work,but my thumbs are down on this book.
