As Close to Perfect by Maria Jane – Review by Lisa Helmick
As Close to Perfect by Maria Jane
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is an enjoyable story. At first it was a little slow but it was all being built up slowly. I really liked meeting the characters. Watching Bree go through all the different stages in her young life. Men, breakups, friends, work and family…it is all in here. The male counterparts are Interesting. Of course my favorite is the guy who goes for longevity instead of swiftness.
Overall this story had me becoming embroiled in Brees life. I came to care, worry and admire her as the story moved along. Her friends are wonderful but she really stole the show. My only issue was the whole race card that started being thrown about later in the book. I didn’t like/love her or the story because of her race. I liked her for the person and the story because it was told well and made me admire the characters. Maybe it is an important factor for some but it was not for me
