“The Most Likely Club seems to serve a complex storyline within the friend groups”
I enjoy reading the women's fiction genre. It’s always more complex than typical romance books. The Most Likely Club seems to serve a complex storyline within the friend groups.
I will warn that The Most Likely Club has multiple povs since it involves the best friends group.
The Most Likely Club brings back four former best friends back together again. They may touch base from time to time. But this time around, they will become closer than before when they form a pack within each other. Let me explain briefly.
Melissa is having a hard time within herself. She is not happy that she is overweight or starting over after her divorce. Planning her high school reunion with her former friends brings her the confidence to lose weight and start planning her life again. I will say that we should be worried about her weight journey; it’s not pretty. You will see as you read, but be warned about eating disorders (it’s discussed).
Priya is having a hard time managing her career and her marriage at the same time. She is expected in her culture to be a mother and wife first than her career. But it’s not something she wants. She wants to be more devoted in her career because she has so much value in the healthcare community. It’s just going to take time for her to find her footing in her career while maintaining her loving marriage. I would say that I wished we had more chapters about her and her husband.
I find Tara and Suki characters a bit hard to read through. We really don’t address their problems as much as we do with Melissa and Priya. I wished we had more chapters about their characters so I could fully understand them as characters. The only thing I can say would be Tara is struggling with her career since she has a few setbacks. And Suki seems to be a selfish character. She seems a bit careless about her career, her marriage, and her friends.
