Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I didn't get it. The protagonist is afraid of her own shadow because of "what she did" as a teenager with her girlfriends. Over and over again, it's "oh, no, we can't disclose what we did." But what they did wasn't that big a deal. A misdemeanor in most states in the U.S. Plus, they did it as minors. I understand it could tarnish their reputations and hurt their careers, but the protagonist is terrified that if "what they did" comes out, she'll spend lice in prison and/or the authorities will take her child. Just silly, really. Also, the Lying Game that the girls played in school has nothing to do with "what they did." The disconnect makes the story unfulfilling. Overall, it's boring and repetitive. Nothing happens for so long, and it's filled with the same internal struggles, ad nausem: How dare he accuse me; but I am lying and he knows it; he just doesn't know what I'm lying about. It's as if author forgot she had already written these lines multiple times. Can't believe I spent $12.99 on this. I've read better books for under $5.
