Book Review: The Birthday Girl by Melissa de la Cruz


The Birthday Girl by Melissa de la Cruz
My rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 (4 stars)
Publisher: Dutton

Told on a birthday, in dual timelines (one present day the other 24 years ago), this story focuses on Ellie, self-made entrepreneur, wife, mother and now 40 year old. She's having a few crises surfacing, from her daughter Sam reappearing back home from Stanford under mysterious circumstances, a business that needs a deal to go through to avert bankruptcy, two men from her long ago and best-forgotten past, dropping into her birthday party and worries that her husband is being unfaithful.
