Best friends Annie and Sarah need cash - fast. Sarah, a beautiful, successful lawyer, wants nothing more than to have a baby. But balancing IVF treatments with a grueling eighty-hour workweek is no walk in the park. Meanwhile, Annie, a Harvard-grad chemist recently transplanted to Southern California, is cutting coupons to afford her young autistic son's expensive therapy.

Desperate, the two friends come up with a brilliant plan: they'll combine Sarah's looks and Annie's brains to sell a "luxury" antiaging face cream to the wealthy, fading beauties in Annie's La Jolla book club. The scheme seems innocent enough, until Annie decides to add a special - and oh-so-illegal - ingredient that could bring their whole operation crashing to the ground.

Hilarious, intelligent, and warm, Crimes Against a Book Club is a delightful look at the lengths women will go to fend for their families and for one another.

Loved it. Loved the story, the writer's use of imagery, her grasp of women's insecurities ( no matter how baseless the insecurities are) and most of all- loved the narration. I miss the characters already. I am now going to look for more of her books. Hopefully she has written more! Well done.

Delightful and fresh

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

If I had read this book in print I probably would have enjoyed it as a cute and funny summer read, however, the narration ruined it. The narrator's overly-exaggerated accents and affectations were annoying and inappropriate. From when she first screamed in my ear as a Jewish attorney til the end of the book, I wanted her to calm down and read, not perform.

Any additional comments?

Too many narrators are giving "performances" as opposed to reading the book. I appreciate a good accent like the reader of Tana French's books, which enhance the listening experience as opposed to overtaking it.
