Spēles trijatā

by Arabella Weir, Arabella Vira, Marija Kempa (Tulkotāja)

Asprātīgais romāns, kura varonēs, iespējams, ikviena lasītāja ieraudzīs arī kaut ko no sevis. Romāns stāsta par triju draudzeņu dzīvi – no jautrajiem septiņdesmitajiem līdz nopietnajiem deviņdesmitajiem, no pirmās skolas dienas pretim draudīgajiem četrdesmit gadiem.
Meitenes zaudē nevainību, atklāj narkotikas, iestājas darbā, apprecas, dzemdē bērnus, satiek mīļāko, krīt depresijā, izbauda laimi – dzīvo dzīvi. Tas ir stāsts par trim nešķiramām draudzenēm, par viņu baltajām un nebaltajām dienām.

Damn
Such a great journey it was reading this book. It kind of starts to feel nostalgic as you progress with chapters.
This is exactly a type of book that i would love to read again in future.
Overall... a very well suggested read from my side.

Funny.

Wish I could say more but I only remember bits and pieces.

Entertaining chronology of three girlfriends. It is written with down-to-earth wit and could be made into a television-series.

Read this for the first time years ago when I was younger. Still as funny as I remember. Great read. Just pick it up and switch off x

I first read this years ago and found it again recently. Funny and full of nostalgia, even if some of it is from before I was born

It's ages since I read this book but really enjoyed it. The main reason, I had totally empathy with these characters as they were the same age as me. Anyone growing up at that time (70’s) would totally get it. My daughters both read it too. Would love to know what became of them.

often laugh-out-loud funny. The dialog is great!
