Review: The Apartment

The Apartment by Danielle Steel
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

Four career women share an apartment in Hell's Kitchen, NY and this book covers about a year in their lives. Clara is a designer who wants to design fashionable shoes but instead is stuck working for a super traditional shoe company. Abbie is stuck in a dead-end relationship which stifles her creative voice in the writing career she desires. Sasha is finishing her training in OB/GYN and has no time for a social life. Finally, Morgan works at a prestigious investment firm and has a serious relationship with a restaurant owner, but has vowed never to get married.

I found this book pretty boring. There was no depth to the characters and it read more like a plot summary. And despite the fact that over the course of the year, the women encountered a murder, witness protection, an unwanted pregnancy, and an investment fraud, there was no excitement or suspense.
