5.0 out of 5 starsA+ escapism
By B. Claypole White on April 6, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
MARKET STREET has all the ingredients of page-turning escapism: likeable characters--except for the dirtbag husband, a glimpse of high society life in San Francisco, and steamy sex. Add in mouth-watering descriptions of gourmet food and more designer fashion than a girl can dream of...and why would you put this book down to return to real life?

The themes of the novel drew me in straight away: self-discovery in the midst of betrayal and the importance of female friendships. The writing is warm and cozy, and the female characters are wonderful. My favorite part of the novel was the friendship between the heroine and her BFF. I loved that Alexis opened her home--and her wardrobe--to Cassie without once judging her or dishing out harsh marriage advice. Everyone needs a friend like Alexis.

If you're looking for the perfect weekend read, this is it.

3.0 out of 5 starsOkay read, a lot of fashion talk...SPOILERS!!!
By Chick Lit Goddess on March 26, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
**WARNING: THE FOLLOWING REVIEW HAS SPOILERS**

Still reeling with joy after reading "Monarch Beach" by Anita Hughes, her debut novel, I was asked to read and review "Market Street." As a huge fan of the author I accepted the offer and was given an early NetGalley copy.

"Market Street" began as an easy read, with action starting right away. I wanted to know if Cassie would take the job at the emporium, but found myself more curious if she would take her cheating husband. The way he cheated, their relationship and the way he seemed to act as is he hadn't done anything wrong, piqued my interest. While there was a bit of name and brand dropping, I understood it because that's what defined the characters were and what I expected from the book. Up until the end of the first quarter, my attention was held.

I liked how Cassie's friend, Alexis, allow her to stay with her, but it seemed like she overstayed her welcome, and not just because Alexis's husband was away on business, (and I often wondered if he was cheating like Aidan). Cassie is a thirty-two year old woman, but staying with her friend for as long as she did kind of threw me off. I also didn't understand their dialogue. One would say something, then the other would say something completely random, but maybe that was the way the characters have always talked with each other. In the end, I felt that Alexis took over the part of the main character. I also found it odd that she's the one who took it upon herself to shut the chapter on Cassie and Aidan's marriage by sending him a box of lingerie.

I tried to like Cassie's character -- I really did, but there were times that I was so over her. She seemed to run away from her issues, especially her husband's infidelity and not face the issues.Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 starsFluff, but a nice escape reading
By Teresa Wagner on April 7, 2013
Format: Paperback
A book of unrealistic fluff: everyone's a millionaire--the women without working for it (except the mother of the book's central character who created a highly successful department store and is stereotyped as cold and uncaring as if that is part of being a successful, hard working woman); the women are pencil thin but constantly eat ice cream, pie, milkshakes and french fries as often as thin women drink water; and the 30 something women who finally do go to work only do so whenever they feel like it--if they are heartsick, tired, want to go shopping or feel like staying in bed with a man they just don't go to work that day (which seems to be about half the time). The worst part of the book is that the central character never develops a backbone or an identity of her own. She never seemed offended at all by the grossly sexist lines from her husband--she was only offended by learning he slept with other women. Being told she was expected to be his helpmate and nothing else didn't seem to even register with her as condescending or ludicrous. The best part of the book is the focus on organic food and the delights of San Francisco. For silly fluff/science fiction escape reading it's worth a 3.

4.0 out of 5 starsFashion, food, fun and forbidden frolicking!
By Maryellen on September 1, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Food, fashion, fun, romance and heartbreak~~MARKET STREET by Anita Hughes has it all. If you're looking for a book to take with you for that last beach trip of the summer~~I recommend this one.

Cassie and Alexis have been best friends since they went to private school together. Now in their 30's, both women are supposedly living their dream lives. Cassie, a "foodie" and heiress to the upscale Fenton's Department Store, is married to Aiden, an ethics professor at UC Berkeley, and spends her days volunteering to teach children about gardening~~her passion. Alexis, married to globe-trotting, financial wizard Carter, spends her days redecorating her behemoth home and taking exercise classes. Both of their lives are about to change, dramatically.

While spending the day together the best friends find themselves covering the jewelry counter at Fenton's for a brief moment. Molly Payne, a student at UC Berkeley, wants to return a necklace that was given to her by none other than Aiden, Cassie's husband. Though circumstances surrounding Aiden giving the gift to Molly seem innocent enough, what transpires between professor and student becomes Cassie's catalyst for a new life.

Fenton's is opening a new Food Emporium and Fenton's owner, Cassie's Mother, wants Cassie to oversee everything from the building of the Emporium with architect, Jimmy, to what types of cheese and tomatoes will be available for purchase. Since Cassie is in tumultuous time in her life she finally agrees to taking on some responsibility at the family business.

I love the growth of the characters throughout the book. Cassie finds her niche in life and Alexis finds a purpose.Read more ›

Love her books almost read all, the only thing I find irritating is how the author always has to describe what each person is wearing name brands and all.
