Why won't it stop raining? It has been raining for weeks. Friends Erica and Clementine have been at odds since THAT weekend. Why can't anyone talk about it? And why is it still raining?
It was the weekend that Vid and Tiffany decided to have a barbecue. No one really wanted to go, but Erica and Clementine decided it might be fun, so they invited their husbands to go along. But something happened at that barbecue, and no one wants to talk about it. The six adults who were there aren't sure how things went wrong. But they do know that things did go horribly, horribly wrong.
Clementine and Erica cannot sleep, and when they do finally close their eyes, their nightmares won't allow them the rest they need. Clementine would like to find a cellist's job, and Erica would like to be able to have a child.
This book is about relationships, friendships, unspoken thoughts, and the pressures of parenting. Being an adult is not an easy thing, but coupled with the pressures of job security, job hunting, and a high pressure job, things can get out of hand very quickly.
This book is set in Australia, and while it did rain a lot, it was also fun to learn a little bit more about the culture. Grab this book and head to the beach!
