Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. I thought it was going to be humorous. I thought it was going to be interesting. But it was neither. None of the characters were likeable and at times it was hard to tell them apart. I couldn't finish it and I haven't done that in years. Really disappointing. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Not a bad book. But oh my, those women are whinny! I finished the book, but I didn't really want to. Not a book I would read again. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. Books about "modern womanhood" (blegh!) usually make me wince, but Karen Rinaldi's novel was much more enjoyable than I expected. The novel follows four women―Maggie, Beth, Isabel, and Anna―as they attempt to balance work, families, and relationships while still maintaining a sense of self. Do they whine and bitch? Yeah, but so do I. Imperfectly executed but still interesting, The End of Men might surprise readers who go in with low expectations. Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. I have to agree with some of the other reviewers that the women in this book aren't people I'd like to hang around with due to all there whining. I even gave this to my mom to read, and she only read two chapters before giving up. I got to the point where I just didn't care what happened to them, and there are so many other books to read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Isabel, Anna, Beth, and Maggie are women who aren't afraid to take it all. Whether spearheading a pregnancy lingerie company, conspiring to return a husband to his ex-wife, lusting after an old lover while in a satisfying marriage, or trying to balance motherhood and work--they are sexy, determined, and not looking for a simple happily ever after. Through punchy, hilarious, and insightful storytelling, The End of Men shatters the confines of society, and more importantly, those we impose upon ourselves.

I was terribly disappointed.
The characters are completely unlikable. They are whiny and bitter about life twists even though many of the twists life throws at them are the results of their own bad choices.
Disappointed. ( )
