I was looking for something to read that was less intense than my usual fair, Mercury in Retrograde by Paula Froelich fit the bill. A slightly silly, inconsequential, at times funny novel about three women in their late 20’s/early 30’s living in NYC whose lives have all taken a turn for the worst, They end up living in the same building, doing yoga together and becoming best friends.

A good book for a day at the beach. Fans of Sex and the City will enjoy. Mildly entertaining, mostly forgettable.
