This book seems like it will be a light summer read. The story revolves around friends that meet by chance at a cancer ward at a hospital in Anchorage. Each one struggles on how to deal with the loss of a loved one.
I was really getting into the story when it ended.......thanking me for reading an excerpt of The Sunday Potluck Club. What a let done. I need to know how this story ends!
Thanks to NetGallery, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read this excerpt.....though I’m sad it wasn’t the complete story😞. This is my honest review.

Just a taster not the full book but looks good from what I read. Just started to get to know the characters and how they are connected.

It’s hard to rate a book that you only have a few chapters of, but I will be interested for the book release to finish it. Characters need more development but I am sure that will happen in the coming chapters.

I have only read a short excerpt of this book, but so far I have really liked it. Four friends who met while dealing with a parent who had cancer, and now they must try to figure out how to move on with life after cancer. Life as they knew it is no longer the same. Each must find a new normal, Will they be able to do it and stay friends? I look forward to the release of this book.

This was not the full book, but I read the few chapters that were allotted to me. To be honest, the writing was choppy, the characters were not very developed, and the story wasn't very engaging. I don't plan on reading the full book (unless I see higher ratings via Goodreads from others who have read the entire book). Even though I didn't care for this book, I thank you for allowing me the opportunity to review it.

This was only a snippet of the book, but I'm very intrigued and hope to read the entire novel when available!

This follows four female friends who met in the cafeteria / waiting areas of a hospital as they all had parents who were getting treatment for cancer. 3/4 lose their parents, and are struggling with grief in different ways.

Our main character Amy, who is starting to finally feel relatively normal after losing her mother 3 months ago, struggles to see why her friend Bridget, who just lost her mother, has such a positive outlook on life.

There is not much to stay, although I expect this book will deal with a lot of grief, finding yourself after tragedy, friends that become family, and presumably, romance for Amy (given that this is in the romance category).

While Amy seems a bit wound up and unnecessarily angry, the book has a very interesting concept and I am excited to see where it goes.

This seems like it's going to be a really lovely book! The excerpt introduces us to four friends who met because they each had a parent fighting cancer. Amy (our protagonist) is having a hard time dealing with the death of her mother and I think that's a feeling that anyone can imagine or relate to. The death of any loved one is incredibly hard, especially when we're young. I think it's a great start to reading about someone figuring out how to deal with their grief and rebuild their life.

We are also briefly introduced to one of Amy's student, a young girl who definitely looks like she needs some support. As a teacher, I really appreciate that Amy spots that Olivia needs help and is determined to do so. I'm really interested in seeing where this story takes us and hopefully I'll have the chance to read it in 2020!

This was a great preview into what is yet to come in February 2020.. How have the women changed based upon loss and what do they want to be?

A cute book full of friends, jokes and secrets. It was a present read and went by quick. Definitely a weekend kind of read.

Dang it! I want to read the rest of this book NOW! The four friends are each already so interesting, I want to get to know them better. The scrapbooker had such an interesting way to help deal with the death of her mother. What about Any & the mysterious Trent who rear ended her? I want to read more about how people deal with death/loss differently.

Short excerpt of this book, which introduces you to the four friends. Looking forward to reading the full story.

I have mixed thoughts on this excerpt. I love the idea of these four friends coming together and helping each other get through one of the toughest times in their lives, but I really could care less about the main character, Amy. However, I am very interested to read the rest of the book, and hopefully see what happens to these four friends. Thank you NetGalley and Kensington Books for the opportunity to read the first 10 chapters of this book!

Friends Amy, Bridget, Hazel, and Nichole met in the cancer ward and, after overcoming serious loses, try to continue on with their lives in Anchorage. But, after dealing with cancer and loss, moving on isn't so easy, at least not for everyone.

As this was simply an excerpt and not the full novel, I find it difficult to write much of a synopsis and a review. I am interested enough in the characters to continue reading but I do not know enough about the plot to say that the plot has drawn me in. Still, I am curious enough to read more.

3 stars at this point. Interesting enough, but not memorable. I am happy enough to revise once I have read this title in it's entirety.

I received this title courtesy of of the NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are given freely and are my own.

This book focuses on four women who have become friends through sad shared circumstances of each having a parent suffering from cancer. They have created a support group to help each other as they travel this journey in their lives.

Somehow I missed the fact that this was only an excerpt of a coming book, and was so disappointed when it ended. This book is so good and I was looking forward to seeing how each woman overcomes her feelings. I like to see if I can figure out how things will progress in a book, so looking forward to reading the entire book to see if my thoughts are correct.

I recommend this as an enjoyable read. I was given an advanced copy of this book by Kensington publishers through Netgalley and was under no obligation to post a review.

This was an excerpt graciously provided by the publisher via netgalley and I can not wait to read the rest.

I just got an excerpt of this book from NetGalley. When I first started the book I wasn't sure that I would like it at all. The four women in the book all met at the cancer ward of the hospital when their parents were all undergoing treatment. The book starts when three of them are headed to the funeral of the fourth woman's mother. After that funeral, the focus shifts to a reentry into the world of work and the struggles that includes. This book seems like it will be an emotional roller coaster. In the excerpt, I laughed and I cried, and I can only assume that will continue in the rest of the book. #TheSundayPotluckClub #NetGalley

They met in hospital cancer ward while each was caring for a parent in the terminal phase of the disease. After the death of the last one each tries to deal with grief in her own way and that affects how she tries to be supportive to the others. Seems like a good start, but I'm not used to getting only a partial from NetGalley. Seems rather pointless to me.

This book only gave an excerpt to read after finishing the excerpt I feel that it is a book that I really would like to read. The characters are all very strong and the reason for the club is a good one. I am very curious as to how these characters in the story progress.

This was not the whole book so I can’t really review it. I liked what I read to finish it when I can get a whole copy. I will review it then.

I think by reading the excerpt this book is going to be a Chick Lit book! I think a lot of women are really going to enjoy this book!!!
